    Rules
    1. No Powerplaying/God Modding.
    2. This applies to those of you who are familiar with the Assassin’s Creed series. You(and your ancestors) are not allowed to possess Eagle Vision.
    3. You may not be related to any character from the games.
    4. I’m not allowing anymore Modern Assassin/Ancestor pairs. Once those are taken, you can have one but not the other.
    5. Don’t hesitate to ask me questions! Also, you don’t have to be good with history to join this RP. I’m terrible at it honestly.
    6. Don’t nitpick on historical details. I’m not great with them but I’ve been trying to do as much research as I can to lighten the load on everyone.
    7. Stay active!
    8. If you look down below, you’ll notice that I’m not allowing German assassins to be used. That’s because of Prussia. It’s too awkward for me to deal with so just stick with the countries listed.
    9. The Hidden Blade is a traditional stealthy weapon used by assassins. You may only have one of these. For those who have played the game, you know that the designs have changed over the series. You cannot use those advanced versions(no hidden gun, hookblade, etc).
    10. To add onto rule 9, your assassin must start with weapons that would exist in his/her continent. Chinese weapons(like the rope dart) will stay with Chinese assassins and Europeans weapons(stay with the Europeans. Bows, crossbows, throwing knives, swords, and practically anything you can think of exist in both Europe and China. Just make sure to use the right variation of those weapons for your assassin.
    [Example: A rapier is not a Chinese sword.]
    11. Assassin Ancestors will gain more weapons as the RP progresses. Modern Assassins will be given weapons on a situational basis.
    12. I reserve the right to add or modify any rules as I see fit.

    Modern Assassin
    Username: Machina
    Name: “Griffin”
    Age: 29
    Sex: Male
    Personality: Tough on the outside but deep down, Griffin is even tougher on the inside. It wasn’t the deaths of the people he called “family” that made him this way but the hard life of an assassin. He spent more time on the frontlines of the war against the Templar Order than most others and it’s taken a toll on his value of life.
    Appearance: Griffin
    Other: He, alongside a three others were responsible for ensuring the survival of the descendants who traveled with León de Lobos to China in the 1580’s. The other assassins know him simply as Griffin, this is unclear as to whether it is his real name or something else. Griffin is the closest thing to a leader the group of survivors have.

    The Spanish Mentor
    Username: Machina
    Name: León de Lobos
    Age: 35
    Sex: Male
    Personality: León is a much kinder person than the leaders of the other brotherhoods, so much so that it can be intimidating to those who meet him. Though he was born into the life of an assassin, it never damaged his outlook on humanity even after countless battles. Though young to be in his position, he is both wise and extremely talented in combat. Despite his light demeanor, he takes nothing for granted and will never hesitate when it comes down to making a hard decision.
    Appearance: León
    Country of Origin: Spain
    Weapons: Hidden Blades, Colichemarde, Tomahawk, Throwing Knives, Pistols, and Smoke Bombs
    Other: As a Mentor, León often carries more equipment than lower ranking assassins. Experience gives him the ability to easily choose the right tool for the right situation. He is the one who gathered the group of assassins from other brotherhoods in Europe and brought them to China. During the voyage, he has continued their training and made sure they were fluent in Chinese before stepping on foreign soil.


    Modern Assassin
    Username: Bushy Brow
    Name: Alessandro (Sandro) Bartolo
    Age: 18
    Sex: Male
    Personality and Bio: Alessandro, or Sandro as he prefers to be called is a lot more laid back than most of his Assassin brethren. He's been raised in the Assassin Order from birth, his lineage tracing back hundreds of years to Italy mean that his family are tough and proud of their origins, but he however often chooses to skip out on his training figuring that there are more fun things he could be doing. Despite his laid back demeanor, he's still rather skilled through his years of training and he knows how to be serious when it counts. He does consider his family to be a bit too old fashioned though, and feels that as a Modern Assassin, he's out of place compared to the rest of them.
    Appearance: Sandro

    Assassin Ancestor
    Username: Bushy Brow
    Name: Alessandra (Alessa) Bartolomew da Firenze
    Age: 20
    Sex: Female
    Personality and Bio: Alessandra, or Alessa as she prefers to be called is from a noble family which has ties all across Italy and to the Assassin Order. The name has changed over the years depending on where in Italy the family resides and through marriages and such (variations include Bartolomeo, Bartoli, Bartoloni, Bartolena, etc).
    Alessa was born into a loving family and four years later, was blessed with a younger sister. Unfortunately, what should have been a happy life was torn away from her. One night when Alessa was just six years old, she was allowed to stay around a friend's house for her first ever sleepover. ...The goodbye that ordinary afternoon was the last she saw of her family. All she returned to was the remains of a burning house, two adult corpses and no trace of her younger sister among them.
    Not having time to grieve as young as she was, she was swept away to Rome and into the Assassin Order where she was raised and trained. She would have been raised as an Assassin anyway as with any member of the family, so her life was still similar in direction in at least that regard.
    Years passed and Alessa matured into a spirited young woman who doesn't let the past hold sway on her. In the Rome Brotherhood, she's known for her witty and amusing nature as well as her deadly skill and focus. Despite being a woman, she doesn't let her gender be an obstacle and instead uses her feminine wiles to her advantage. Despite still being young, she has wracked up a number of impressive achievements already.
    Appearance: Alessa and Robes
    Country of Origina: Italy (Half Italian, Half English)
    Weapons: Hidden Blade, Sword (x2), Throwing Knives.

She has a very pleasant demeanour about her and an uplifting spirit, she’ll seem to always find a reason to smile no matter how bad the situation gets. She is extremely used to being underestimated and usually enjoys that, especially when she proves them wrong. Despite this, it is advisable not to annoy her as she is not one to be pushed around and can hold her own. She is very hard working and determined; she will not give up easily.
    Appearance: Kathleen. She is very petite and appears much younger than she actually is.

    Age: 24
    Sex: Male

    Assassin Ancestor

    Age: 22
    Sex: Female
    Personality: Much like her descendant, Anastasia is quiet and almost brooding, despite being smaller than most people are. Her height is about 5'1”, and she stopped growing when she was fifteen. Because of this, she always trained harder than the others to make up for lack of height, instead becoming a nimble, flexible, and incredibly extraordinary monkey. She is often the person to come to for a comfortable silence, or a companion, and will comfort you without having to say a word. She only has a few ties with her extremely wealthy family, and has only called on them once or twice to help, but she's very proud when it comes to these things. She's usually first to test out any danger, and is protective of those she works with.
    It takes a lot to earn her respect, but it's worth it.
    Appearance: x
    Country of Origin: Eastern Russia
    Weapons: Hidden blade • Bow • Short blade • Sword
    Other: Anastasia isn't her real name, and she only kept her last name. She was to marry a prince to save her family's wealth, but decided not to instead, saving her family's wealth in a . . . different manner. She stays secret from most of her family, save her two uncles and grandfather, the same three also being Assassins.

    Age: Twenty-Nine
    Sex: Female
    Personality: Though serious at times, Catalina knows when to take a joke and usually tries not to take every little detail too seriously.

Both of her parents came from rich families, however, her father had kept the secret of him being an assassin. She didn’t find out until he had suddenly disappeared and his secret came out. As soon as she entered the brotherhood, she realized how much of a danger being an assassin could be so she distanced herself from her family and friends.

    Age: 29
    Sex: Female

She is well balanced, but also has a strong care for her fellow assassins, placing safety high. Even her smart decisions and plans couldn't last long. Her guild was in desperate need of more assassins and the Templars are continuing to invade China, searching high and low for the Piece of Eden. As of now, she is in charge of defense operations in the Chinese Assassin Guild and is told to hold out until more Assassins arrive into China and help in their search and to defend her land against the Templar invaders.
    Appearance: Mya
    Country of Origin: China
    Weapons: Dao, Hidden Blade, throwing knives and smoke bombs
    Other: Director of Defense in the guild. She isn't the best assassin, but she isn't a novice at fighting either.

    Animus Technician
    Username: Bushy Brow
    Name: Gavin Jacksbeard
    Age: 19
    Sex: Male
    Personality and Bio: Gavin was just an average guy from England. He was a bit of a scientific/computer prodigy, even from a young age, and was eventually accepted into Oxford under Scholarship. There, he started delving into ideas behind the mind and the concepts of memory. It was then that he came across an interesting theory... the idea of memories being passed down through genetic DNA. He started to research the concept and before he knew it, he had 'accidentally' hacked into Abstergo's computer records during his hunt, a feat that normally wouldn't be easily accomplished, but Gavin's skills had somehow managed it. After browsing through the classified data, that was the moment that Gavin became a target for Abstergo and the Templars. Thankfully... a mole inside Abstergo was able to get to Gavin first and put him in protective Assassin custody. Now having relocated to America, Gavin helps the Assassins with their latest technological needs, something which he is happy to do as they did indeed save his life and also because it means he can continue with his research and work towards a greater good. Since then, he has also taken necessary Assassin Training to at least not fall behind the others, but he personally prefers to sit by a computer than be out in the field.
    Personality wise, Gavin is a witty and sarcastic young man who likes to try and inject good humor and sarcasm into even the worst situations, but don't mistake this defense mechanism for dislike. He's pretty much a decent guy who does have a heart of gold. ...If you can find it.

    You're in, master of keyblades. Now there's only room for one more Modern Assassin/Ancestor pair. I'd prefer it to not be from Italy now that there's two from there.

    In. *Will add you*

    Sorry, forgot to add Rem in when she posted. You can have either your Modern Assassin or the other one(Mya), but not both. Oh and if you plan on sticking with Mya...shuriken are Japanese weapons, not Chinese.

    Ulfrand Wolfpaw
    Age:
    33 years old
    Sex:
    Male
    Personality:
    Ulfrand is a devout follower of Asatru (Norse Paganism) and is who many call an embodiment of the nine noble virtues. He is brave and courageous, jumping into battle when he feels it is appropriate. Ulfrand holds his honor above all his other virtues and will defend it when it comes into question. While Ulfrand is hard and dutiful, he has a soft spot for children.
    Appearance:
    Ulfrand is a 6'8" tall 220 pound wall of muscle. Tempered from pillaging in his time before the brotherhood, he has become an imposing figure. His eyes are a piercing light blue and his hair is long and golden like honey. His skin is snow-like and his braided beard hangs down to the bottom of his chest. His hair is long and his bangs are braided and tied behind his head. He is dressed all in furs from animals that he hunted and killed himself.
    Country of Origin:
    Sweden
    Weapons: [Up to four max]
    Hidden Blade
    Ulfrand's standard assassination tool. It is kept in a fur bracer on his right arm.
    Viking Short Axe
    A 36" long axe with an iron head capable of splitting a human skull.
    Ulfberht Sword
    Ulfrand's favorite weapon since he took it from a Jarl ten years ago. It is 39" long and the hilt is made of solid gold. When his hidden blade and axe fail, Ulfrand can depend on this sword to get him out of any jam.

    Question. Can we mention Ezio or is he not alive in this universe?

    Ezio did exist but he is long dead by now. While he'd be a well known Master Assassin to some, it's unlikely that many would still know much about him yet.
    The exceptions would likely be Italian Ancestor Assassins..

    I mean as an example, my Ancestor was raised in the Rome Brotherhood which was founded and set up by him, so it'd make sense for her to know about him in greater detail than others. But yeah.
    While his deeds have probably been spread around elsewhere in history, it's hard to say just WHO would know about him or why it'd be necessary to mention him.
