   Keys: Giovanni Auditore da Firenze, Giovanni

   Giovanni Auditore da Firenze was a Florentine nobleman and banker, the head of the Auditore family in Florence, and a member of the Italian Brotherhood of Assassins. Raised and trained along with his brother Mario from birth to be an Assassin, Giovanni had been aware of the Templar Order for almost all of his life. After leaving his hometown of Monteriggioni at a young age, he founded the Auditore International Bank in Florence, where he quickly became a close friend and ally of the Medici family, primarily Lorenzo de' Medici.

   Giovanni opted to keep his true nature as an Assassin secret, with only his closest confidants being aware of it. These included Lorenzo, his wife Maria Auditore and eldest son Federico. His remaining children— Elvira, Claudia and Petruccio—were kept in the dark regarding his true affiliations, although by 1476, he was preparing to start training Elvira in the Assassins' ways as well.

   After uncovering a Templar conspiracy to take over Florence, Giovanni sought to prevent it. However, he was betrayed by his ally, Uberto Alberti, who had been secretly turned to the Templar cause and arrested Giovanni, Federico, and Petruccio on false charges of treason. Giovanni only had enough time to direct Elvira to his secret chamber in their family home, thus setting her daughter on the path to becoming an Assassin, before he was executed alongside Federico and Petruccio

   By 1476, Federico had begun discreetly mentoring Elvira in the Assassins' ways at their father's request, teaching her some useful skills such as fist-fighting and freerunning. However, he would never get the chance to complete his sister's training due to his arrest and execution as an alleged accomplice to Giovanni, who had been falsely accused of treason.

As a member of the Auditore family, Maria continued to fraternize with the lower classes, developing a working relationship with the artist Leonardo da Vinci.

   Maria was traumatized by the execution of her husband and two of their children, Federico and Petruccio, in 1476, after which she slipped into a state of shock and refused to communicate until Ezio helped her recover years later. She is still alive.

After her father and two of her brothers were executed on false charges of treason in 1476, Claudia relocated with her mother and Elvira to the town of Monteriggioni, which was under the leadership of her uncle Mario.

   While her sister was trained as an Assassin by Mario and embarked on a journey to exact revenge on the Templars responsible for their family's demise, Claudia took up work as the financial accountant of Monteriggioni. Thanks to her organization and the money brought by Elvira from her adventures, the town flourished, as many of its shops and businesses became open once more.

7. #7Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad's Codex

   Keys: Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad's Codex

   Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad's Codex is a personal journal written by the Levantine Assassins' Mentor Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad following the death of Al Mualim. It documented his explorations into the Apple of Eden he possessed, and it offered an autobiographical view of his life and various assassination-related articles.

8. #8Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad

   Keys: Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad

   Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad (Arabic: الطائر ابن لا أحد‎; 1165 – 1257) was a member of the Levantine Brotherhood of Assassins who served as their Mentor from 1191 until his death in 1257. During his tenure as Mentor, through the knowledge of an Apple of Eden, Altaïr made several discoveries and inventions that greatly helped the Order's progression. His leadership saw to the spread of the Assassins' influence throughout Europe and Asia.

   Raised to be an Assassin from birth, Altaïr became a Master Assassin at the age of 24,[1] an accomplishment unheard of for one so young.[2] In July 1191, he failed to recover an Apple of Eden from Robert de Sablé and subsequently allowed the Templars to attack the town outside the Levantine Assassins' headquarters in Masyaf. For this, he was demoted to the rank of novice and sent on a quest for redemption.

   Tasked with the deaths of nine individuals who, unbeknownst to him, made up the ranks of the Templar Order in the Holy Land, Altaïr began a quest to change his ways and liberate the Kingdom from their corruption. During his quest, however, Altaïr learned of a plot far more sinister than he originally believed. In completing his mission, he also cleansed the Assassin Order of its treacherous leader, Al Mualim. Altaïr thereafter became Mentor, taking the Assassins in a new, more secretive direction.

   With the Apple in hand, Altaïr changed the way members of his Order lived their lives, writing the details in his fabled Codex for later generations of the Order to read. Altaïr's vision of the Assassin Order was for them to be spread across the world, living among the people, and he began establishing many Assassin Guilds during his tenure as Mentor. Throughout his travels, Altaïr strengthened the Order, stopping various Templar plots over the years as well as halting the inexorable march of Genghis Khan.

   However, Altaïr's tenure as Mentor was not without its issues, most of which arose from his former friend and fellow Assassin, Abbas Sofian, who had grown to resent Altaïr over the years. Blaming Altaïr for dishonoring his family's name, Abbas eventually staged a coup to take over the Order, and Altaïr was forced into a self-imposed exile alongside his family. During this time, he continued to study the Apple and learned of an Isu temple underneath the Assassin fortress of Alamut, from which he retrieved six Memory Seals. Altaïr eventually returned to Masyaf in 1247 and killed Abbas, reclaiming the title of Mentor.

9. #9Apples of Eden

   Keys: Apple of Eden

   The Apples of Eden are sphere-shaped pieces of Isu technology. Having long outlasted their creators, the Apples are featured prominently, although cryptically, throughout recorded history as the cause of several "divine" and "superhuman" events, including Adam and Eve being cast out of Eden, the parting of the Red Sea, and the Trojan War.

   During ancient times, the Order of the Ancients and the Hidden Ones referred to the Apple of Eden as the Orb.

   The Apples were designed to be able to project images, conjure realistic illusions, and even turn thought into reality; hence, they were used by many great rulers throughout history, proving the efficacy of their powers.

   When the Isu created humanity, they bred within their brains hidden neurotransmitters. The Apples can interface with these neurotransmitters to issue commands to the human brain, thus allowing them mental control over humans. However, humans with traces of Isu genes were not born with the neurotransmitters and thus were immune to Apple's mental manipulation powers, but they were still susceptible to its physical effects.
