Image of Aguilar

Without wanting to sound pedantic, or being a jobsworth, currently the Yahoo source only states that Fassbender is playing Lynch; no mention is made of him playing Aguilar. Likewise, the image of the very 15th Century looking Assassin we currently have on this page is captioned "Meet Michael Fassbender as Callum Lynch in Assassin’s Creed."

Whilst I agree that that image is likely to be Aguilar, as it stands, it's an image of Callum Lynch. --Jasca Ducato (talk | contributions) 17:08, August 27, 2015 (UTC)

I did notice that the article says that but let's not ignore common sense and misinform people because of Yahoo's blatant mistake. -- Master Sima Yi _Talk 17:12, August 27, 2015 (UTC)

Maybe it's because no other available official image for Aquilar.It may be changed if enough information is announced.Sleeplust (talk) 05:12, October 3, 2015 (UTC)

I think the Spanish spelling is technically "Nerja" from what I looked up about historical Spain. Also, is Fassbender technically the first actor to play both a modern assassin and his ancestor?New Seeker (talk) 21:52, April 8, 2016 (UTC)

Death Year

What is the source for this death year as 1526? Sol Pacificus^(Cyfiero) 06:40, January 3, 2017 (UTC)

According to Crookandcharlatan, it was shown somewhere in the movie. I haven't seen it myself yet, so I'm taking his word for it. The Wikia Editor (talk) 10:55, January 3, 2017 (UTC)

There's a scene in the movie where Sophia and Cal are looking at Cal's ancestry and when they get to Aguilar, you can briefly see "1455-1526" written underneath a picture/drawing of him. It's very blink-and-you'll-miss-it (I certainly did when I first watched the movie), but it's there. Crook ^{The Constantine District} 16:09, January 3, 2017 (UTC)

Surrender of Granada on January 2, 1492

Is there a source that provides this as the specific date for when Muḥammad XII surrendered Granada to the Spanish? I know that Discovery certainly doesn't mention it (I've replayed the game like 30x or more). I know that it is the real-life date of Granada's capitulation, however, over at Wikipedia it also says that the ceasefire and provisional treaty was signed on November 25, 1491 and seems to imply that the surrender on January 2 was actually the formal surrender. Since I only have Wikipedia as a source xD, I'm kind of feeling in the dark. I'm not sure if say the Spanish happened to attack again on January 2 after waiting months through a ceasefire, then Muḥammad immediately finalized the surrender. Discovery also mentions an "abdication ceremony" later to the surrender, and I have thought that it's possible this was what occurred in January 2. Ahhhh all these timeline complications. >_< Sol Pacificus^(Cyfiero) 17:34, January 5, 2017 (UTC)

I have no idea where Jasca got the January 2, 1492 date from - I certainly did not spot it anywhere in the novel/film. Btw, Sol, did you see the message I added on Maxattac's talkpage? You guys were discussing timeline issues there as well. Crook ^{The Constantine District} 17:37, January 5, 2017 (UTC)

Wikipedia says January 2nd.--Jasca Ducato (talk | contributions) 20:12, January 5, 2017 (UTC)

Assassin's Creed: Rebellion Bio

Born to two members of the Brotherhood of Assassins, Aguilar refused at first to embrace his parents' Creed, preferring to live his life free of commitment. Unfortunately, tragedy struck when both his parents were captured and burned at the stake by the Templar-led Inquisition. Full of regret, he then officially joined the Brotherhood to avenge them, but also to honor their Creed that he now fully understood.

During his training as an Assassin, Aguilar showed great talents for combat and acrobatic feats, quickly becoming one of the finest members of the Brotherhood.

Aguilar was an essential driving force in the expansion of the Assassins in Spain and in their success against the Templars, and eventually became the new Mentor of the Spanish Brotherhood.

1491 or 1492

Considering the events of the last Aguilar scene in the movie have been confirmed to have taken place on 2 January 1492, it makes a lot more sense for his induction into the Assassins to have happened in 1491. The novelization even states that it happened in 1491 and personally, I find the novelization to be a more accurate source given the movie was riddled with lore inconsistencies.N217062 (talk) 21:13, December 28, 2017 (UTC)

It is entirely possible (however unlikely) for Aguilar to have been inducted into the Assassin Order on January 1st, and for the events depicted to have all taken place within a two day period. --Jasca Ducato (talk | contributions) 12:43, January 4, 2018 (UTC)
