The Assassin Brotherhood, also known as the Assassin Order and originally as the Hidden Ones, is a secret global peacekeeping organization dedicated to protecting humanity from abuses of power, coercive rule, and injustice. As the etymology of the term assassin, their traditional methods have revolved around stealth operations, selective violence, and the assassination of those deemed to be perpetrators of oppression under the belief that this minimizes collateral damage in accordance with their absolute prohibition against harming innocent lives.


These are main antagonists and some are deuteragonists or minor characters introduced in  Worldcraft, Two Lights, Equation, Rescris, Historya Davvun, Legends from Fertile Crescent, No Way to Seaway, and Weather Dragons as part of Rapunzel's Tangled Adventure.


Their leader was Mentor, or Assassin President.

The title of Mentor was an honorific title given to leaders of the Assassin Brotherhood who had obtained an extraordinary amount of skill and wisdom, and subsequently used these skills to tutor aspiring apprentices. However, following the death of this Mentor, Grand Master, and Elder Duke, the Great Extinction occurred, with the leaders of the Assassin Order, Templar Order, and Conservationist Hunters all being sidelined in an attempt to avoid detection by the former Templars, Abstergo. The leader of ex-Templar Abstergo, Julio Daniel Cross, is one of the most dangerous foes of Templars, Assassins, and Hunters.


Since the murder of the Mentor, Grand Master, and Elder Duke by the sleeper person Daniel Cross, the position has been vacant, with de facto authority assumed by the offspring of Lancelot and Guinevere in order to avoid global disaster and extermination due to climate change. This faction is led by Lady Maryam Gomez in TROQA and William Miles in PAPRIN.

Although the Assassins can trace their genetic and cultural roots to the hybrids Adam and Eve, they officially originated with the Medjay of Egypt. The last Medjay Bayek and his wife Aya of Alexandria founded the order—then known as the Hidden Ones—at the tumultuous twilight of Ptolemaic rule to defend the common people against the Order of the Ancients, a clandestine militant group which evolved into the Templar Order. Since then, the Assassins, the Conservationist Hunters, and the Templars have been sworn enemies, fighting a recondite shadow war for more than two millennia across the world, a conflict so intractable and immemorial that it is often thought to have instead spanned the entirety of recorded human history. This is central to the conflict. The Assassin Order's belief that free will is an essential requirement for human fulfillment and harmony. While the Order of Templars believe that only by imposing a world governance under their control can humanity find lasting peace. The Conservationist Hunters, on the other hand, are global peacekeepers dedicated to protecting mankind from violations of power, coercive rule, and injustice, or to saving organisms from extermination. 


The name "Assassin" is often said to derive from the Arabic word Hashishin or "users of hashish" or "hash-user", which was originally applied to the Assassins Isma'ilis by the rival Mustali Isma'ilis during the fall of the Isma'ili Fatimid Empire and the separation of the two Isma'ili streams.

History

Eve and Adam, a mixed Homo heidelbergensis-deity (Homo deus) hybrid, soon-to-be humans and first true Conservationist Hunters, Assassin Order, and Templar Order assisted with Samael and Mikhael to fight against Satan with Zhulong and Zmeu long time ago and peace from harm. Following a prolonged period forced subservience, humanity and other races eventually rebelled against the deities (except for Quetzalcoatl and Chang'e) and a decade-long war broke out and starting to dedicated to protecting humanity from abuses of power, coercive rule, and injustice, as well as changing the ecological niche and balance of nature from powerful Guardians, Extraterrestrials, Elder Dragons, and Eldritch Terrors.


Due to being just as completely racist as in affection for nature, protecting people and animals from destruction, being able to predict and solve mathematical problems quickly, being immune to all fears, and even being strategist maniacs, these hunters are entirely distinct from assassins and are regarded as enemies of the Assassin Order and Templar Knights.


The Assassins suffered a significant blow at the hands of the Mongol Empire during the well-documented invasion of Khwarazm. A decree was handed over to the Mongol commander Kitbuqa who began to assault several Assassin fortresses in 1253 before Hulagu's advance in 1256, seizing Alamut late that year. Lambsar fell in 1257, Masyaf in 1267. The Assassins recaptured and held Alamut for a few months in 1275, but they were crushed and their political power was lost forever by Mongol-allied Saurfolks in Bactria. Rukn al-Din Khurshah was put to death shortly thereafter.


In 1271, Baibars' forces seized al-'Ullaiqah and ar-Rusafa, after taking Masyaf the year before. Later in the year, Shams ad-Din surrendered and was deported to Egypt. Qala'at al-Khawabi fell that year and within two years Gerdkuh and all of the Assassin fortresses were held by the sultan. With the Assassins under his control, Baibars was able to use them to counter the forces arriving in the Ninth Crusade. The sultan threatened Bohemond VI, and the Assassins attacked future king Edward I of England unsuccessfully.


The last of the Assassin strongholds was al-Kahf in the Syrian coastal mountains in 1273. The Mamluks reportedly continued to use the services of the remaining Assassins, and the 14th-century scholar ibn Battuta reported their fixed rate of pay per murder, with his children getting the fee if the Assassin did not survive the attack, possibly except for some elves keeping the Assassin Brotherhood or some foreigners using the word from their order.


Originally referring to the methods of political control exercised by the Assasiyuun, one can see how it became "assassin" in several languages to describe similar activities anywhere. The modern term assassination is believed to stem from the tactics used by the Assassins. Lee Harvey Oswald was a U.S. A Marine veteran who assassinated John F. Kennedy, the 35th president of the United States, on November 22, 1963, was a descendant of an Assassin Brotherhood member and Templar Order member. Marina Nikolayevna Oswald Porter is a Russian and American woman who was the wife of Lee Harvey Oswald, an Assassin and Templar member.


Jack Leon Ruby was an American nightclub owner and alleged associate of the Chicago Outfit. He murdered Lee Harvey Oswald (a Templar Order member) on November 24, 1963, two days after Oswald was accused of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy (an ally of three factions). A Dallas jury found Ruby guilty and sentenced him to death by the puppets of the Assassin Brotherhood. A day later, doctors realized he had cancer in his liver, lungs, and brain made by an Assassin Order elf doctor to curse him. He died on January 3, 1967.


The Templars were aware by the early 21st century that all Conservation or Assassin or some Templar humans were resistant to the mind control of the Terran Ancient Artifacts. In 1990s to the future, the Guild was nearly wiped out like the entire Assassin Brotherhood, Templar Order, and Conservationist Hunters and their descendants during the Great Purge or The Great Extinction led by the former Templar Order, now independent Abstergo Industries, leaving only a few members alive. The main front for contemporary activities that are not Templar-related is Abstergo Industries, a transnational conglomerate of corporations. The majority of human technological advancement and Terran Ancient Artifacts were produced by Abstergo Industries and its predecessors over the course of millennia. Today, Abstergo Industries is a separate ecoterrorist organization and a multinational conglomerate that supports white supremacy and Germanic, Italic, Celtic, and Hispanic cultures.


Abstergo Industries was truly a little piece of the Templar plan to rule the globe through commerce and scientific advancement when it was officially created in 1937. The development of the assembly line by Templar leaders Henry Ford and Ransom "Ranny" Olds at the turn of the 20th century is where Abstergo got its start. As the first phase in the Templars' plan to rule the world through economics, the assembly line was an early method for controlling both workers and the capitalists who employed them. One Templar of Hawaiian-Japanese descent named Kekoa Shigemitsu signed the Abstergo Industries to want to kill many Templars in order to avoid being as one of isolationist opponents in the entire globe on September 2, 1945, when Abstergo Industries became recognized to be independent from the Templar Order and took the white supremacist authority and dominate the entire globe.


The Assassin Brotherhood, the Templar Order, and Conservationist Hunters were to be eradicated from the planet as part of the Abstergo Industries effort known as The Great Extinction. A desire to assassinate the Mentor, the Assassin Brotherhood, the Templar Order, and Conservationist Hunters was implanted into the brain of Julio Cross delo Santos, a Templar sleeper agent and tyrant, after he was permitted to meet the Assassins' Mentor. A team of ex-Templars breaking into Assassin, Templar, and Hunter lairs. One dark part of the Assassin, Templar, and Hunter's history is The Forbidden Act they committed that went against nature, romance, and society. By using both technology and biology, this society was able to create their own lifeforms by using equipment and materials, as well as TAAs to build them from scratch.


In order to enforce the law by finding, discouraging, rehabilitating, or punishing individuals or Abstergo Industries who violate the laws and norms governing that society, numerous heirs of Conservationist Hunters, Assassin Order, and Templar Order banded together to form their own law enforcement, gangsters, and others to plan defeat Abstergo Industries.


Under Quirin Stearns' orientation, military agents of Abstergo Industries massacred almost all Assassins, Templars, and Hunters in their camps, along with children, creatures of all kinds, creatures of evil, and members of other races. Only a small number of Assassins, Templars, and Hunters were able to flee, and only a few off-the-grid settlements escaped unharmed. The continual loss of Earth's plant and animal life as a result of human activity is known as the Holocene extinction, and a plot to assassinate Princess Diana and her boyfriend, Dodi Fayed, by Abstergo Industries resulted in their deaths in a high-speed vehicle accident in Paris. Prince Charles was in danger of being slain by Abstergo Industries, but Monster Hunter Chameleos shielded him in the hopes that he was covertly working with Assassins, Templars, and Hunters and could escape. The Abstergo Industries won the operation, and all of the Assassins, several Templars, and all of the Hunters were unable to recover from their loss. Instead, they remained clandestine and carried out their operations in a small hideout where they could pray.


After including Templar Order, Assassin Order, and Conservationist Hunter on a list of suspected criminals and accused criminals who are thought to be at large and are designated as a law enforcement agency's top target for execution, Abstergo descended into insanity. Considering that Abstergo-style massacres and human activity are to blame for this extinction. The consequent decrease of the Templars, Hunters, and Assassins' influence over American politics also allowed the Abstergo to be successful in placing their puppet, George W. Bush, as President of the United States of America.


Abstergo employees monitoring raids on Assassin, Templar, and Conservationist hideouts before the 1999 riots. The negotiations from Abstergo Industries were quickly overshadowed by massive street protests of Assassins, Hunters, and Templars outside the hotels and the Washington State Convention and Trade Center. Resignation of Seattle police chief Norm Stamper; Increased exposure of the WTO in US media for revival of Assassin Order, Templar Knights, and Conservationist Hunters in 1990s all over the world as the real descendants of Lancelot and Guinevere. This is began a long, violent war between humanity, animals, dinosaurs, and dragons that spread worldwide, leaving behind mass destruction just about everywhere because of Abstergo Industries. Though it is unknown what exactly happened in the war, The Great Genocidal is said to describe all that happened in the Holocene War or Extinction of Humanity. This war ended with most of the animals, plants, monsters, dinosaurs, and dragons extinct and with Assassin Brotherhood, the Templar Order, and Conservationist Hunters mostly gone for good.


Protests from all over the world over the murder of Princess Diana and her boyfriend, Dodi Fayed, as well as nearly killing Prince Charles, and police brutality began in Seattle on November 30 – December 3, 1999 against Abstergo Industries. Street clashes occurred in greater Seattle for nine days involving protesters, the Seattle Police Department, the Washington State Patrol and the Washington National Guard, which is owned by Abstergo Industries. This is the only known situation where the Conservationist Hunter's descendants are Grove Street Families and the Varrios Los Aztecas join together briefly to take down the Abstergo Industries.


Abstergo, their most powerful industrial force, held the same ideals as the Templars, Assassins, and Hunters combined: order and discipline via dominance and control. All of Abstergo's employees were unaware of the Templar Order and had not even heard of it, although a few senior executives were aware of the reason behind it. The Templars, Assassins, and Hunters came to realize the influence the Terran Artifacts had over people and other fanciful races after the Third Crusade, and they started looking for them. They had accessed the memories of their ancestors in present times using a variety of Chalom Reality subjects in order to obtain a map displaying these artifacts. Later, this objective evolved into having complete command and ownership of all Terran artifacts. The Hunter's Guild as well as all of its districts recognized these Hunters for their abilities to kill wicked individuals, including their young ones, creatures, guardians, vegetation, demons, Elder Dragons, or Elder Dragon-Level Creatures like Extraterrestrial being and the Eldritch Terrors. In order to bring about Abstergo's demise, the Hunters also teamed together with Templars and Assassins. They did this by employing their abilities, creations, enchantments, tactics, and minds. Unknown to them, some hunters ride on creatures and bond with them.


William gathered information about Daniel's ancestors and was led to Cain, who was heavily involved in the Tunguska explosion. This information was relayed to Paul, and Daniel was accepted into the Order. William, Quirin, and Diana eventually met Cross in person and believed in his sincerity.


Daniel was personally introduced to the three faction's leaders in November 1990, but assassinated them due to a desire covertly implanted into the brain by Abstergo during his youth. Cross also gave Abstergo the coordinates of all the Assassin, Templar, and Conservationist settlements he had visited while searching for the three leaders. As a result, the Abstergo leader launched an effort to destroy these camps, cities, ecosystems, and even global leaders in order to carry out the plan of New World Order and the total annihilation of humanity and creatures under Cross. Despite the fact that nearly all of the Assassin, Templar, and Hunter compounds were destroyed, William and other Assassins, Templars, and Hunters survived to exact their own retribution on Abstergo.


When the Mentor, Grand Master, and Elder Duke died in 1996 AD, and all of the Assassin, Templar, and Hunter compounds were seized by Abstergo members as the cause of Princess Diana's death, the Assassins, Templars, and Hunters, as well as all Elder Dragons and Apep, went into concealing and split up, operating remotely from concealed hideouts, cells, and strongholds. Control of the Order eventually fell to William, Quirin, and Lesley, and he began to oversee the activities of the Three Faction.

Divisions

In cities around the world, such as New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Cairo, Tokyo, Seoul, Madrid, London, Paris, Manila, Aceh, Johor, Shanghai, Moscow, and the rest of the world, Assassin Order had various offices, organizations, and law enforcement agencies.


Predecessors


Divisions


Subsidiaries


Reasons

For some reason, members of the Assassin Order affiliated with the Templar Order, and Conservationist Hunters frequently battled the New World Order as causing one of the most powerful armaments of the planet to defend from bad schemes. It is possible for members of the Order to be expelled for various reasons, including but not limited to breaking the tenents of the Creed. In such situations, the Assassin Council could call for a vote of expulsion. After being expelled, the Assassin would be stripped of their rank and exiled from the Brotherhood.


The Assassin Arno Dorian was expelled from the Order, after he had defied the Council's orders, performed several assassinations without the Council's consent and in their words "flouted the Creed at every step". Arno would be welcomed back into the Order, however, after he later reformed and demonstrated true fidelity to the Creed. Some members of the Order to be expelled for allegiance with Abstergo Industries.


In cases of extreme disregard for the Creed's tenets, an expelled member may further become the target of assassination by their former comrades, such examples being Perotto Calderon for the theft of the Shroud of Eden, and Shay Cormac for the theft of the Voynich manuscript.


The Order believes in a strong set of values that strictly govern their way of life, referred to as "the Creed". This Creed consists of three tenets:

Burial

Historically, Assassins always showed great respect for the dead. Their own were buried in crypts or large tombs, wrapped in a cloth shroud with their red sash spread across the body. The greatest Assassins were venerated in large tombs and entombed within sarcophagi, their likeness emblazoned on the lid and their symbol venerated in the flags of the tomb.


For all assassination targets, unless circumstances prevented, Assassins would give them their last rites after they had passed away. Early in his career as an Assassin, Ezio Auditore was reprimanded by his uncle Mario for disrespecting the corpse of his target and longtime rival Vieri de' Pazzi, instilling in him a respect for the dead.
