Character NAME: Ezio Auditore da Firenze
Canon & MEDIUM: Assassin's Creed series, video game
Canon PULL-POINT: Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, after the expulsion of Cesare Borgia from Rome
Character AGE: 43
Character ABILITIES: Since Ezio is a direct descendant of the first race of men who shared some of the abilities with their enslavers, he has something called Eagle Vision. Eagle Vision allows him to know the true scope of things: who are his enemies, his allies, hiding places, and targets. He's also extremely skilled at free-running and climbing. Ezio by some miracle also manages to not die when he jumps from very tall heights (called the Leap of Faith in game)... at least, if a bale of hay or water is around. He knows his way around different types of weapons, like swords, hammers, spears, crossbows, knives, two-handed swords, axes, his hidden blades, and pistols. Ezio also knows how to swim very well and knows hand-to-hand combat. In general, Ezio is a very agile fighter, light on his feet, and is known to be among the fastest runners of all the Assassins.
Character HISTORY: Here!
Character PERSONALITY:
Ezio Auditore da Firenze is a very headstrong man and is absolutely selfless. He puts everyone before himself and will do anything to try and save someone or will spare a life if it doesn't need to be taken. He does have a sense of humor amidst all the seriousness of his position. Where there was cockiness as a teenager, there is confidence as an adult. He knows he has the power and the abilities to do what he sets his mind to, but he won't rush in stupidly. Ezio is not above asking for help when he needs it. He knows he can't do everything by himself. He treats his allies and friends with kindness but he won't hold back unkind words if they need to hear it. With Machiavelli, though the two disagree greatly, they focus instead on the guild and repairing the city. In a way, he knows how to deal with different kinds of people. He is something of a social butterfly when he needs to be and with the right people to help him.
Ezio is great leader and mentor. He personally taught all of his new recruits the ways of the Assassins and led them in battle against the templars. He made sure each of them learned and lived by Creed while helping them reach their fullest potential. While these events aren't so clearly stated in Brotherhood, the Facebook-based game Project Legacy delved into the life of one of his Assassins. His tale highlights not only the firm tactics that Ezio employed when training, but also the camaraderie he possessed with his recruits and the freedoms he gave them. He treats all people as equals, even those who are ranked below him. While he does teach others, Ezio also lets his Assassins embark on their own missions and learn new things on their own.
Trust is not given, but earned with Ezio. His ally La Volpe didn't trust Machiavelli but Ezio did, despite their differences. Machiavelli earned Ezio's trust because of his ties with the Borgia and the fact that he had provided already with invaluable information. He sees the value of a person sometimes further than most would.
La Volpe and Machiavelli always had an unsteady relationship, and La Volpe promised to kill Machiavelli if Ezio did not provide the evidence to support his innocence. Through proving Machiavelli's loyalty to the Assassins and saving his life, it is shown that Ezio is capable of making amends, or at least able to make others put aside their differences in favor of a greater cause. You could say he does a bit of damage control among people he works closely with, when it's necessary.
» EXSILIUM INFORMATION
Chosen WEAPON: His weapon will be his pair of hidden blades. They're strictly iron blades but as time progresses they'll evolve to have non-lethal forms of attacking and combat with the blades, similar to the way the modern-day Assassins have electric shocks imbued in their hidden blades.
Chosen SKILLSET: Fighter! Though Ezio is willing to teach and train others just like in canon.
» SAMPLES
First PERSON:
[For a few moments, there's no noise on the feed. It's almost like dead air before a distinctively deep voice with a thick Italian accent begins to speak.]
I am told we are to train here, in this place. For those who are interested in training with me, I will be in one of the training rooms. As for those who simply wish to spar, well... [He chuckles.] I will be here still.
Third PERSON:
Ezio took a deep breath and strode forward, hood on, eyes darting about. This isn't the first time he's been thrown headfirst into a war that was not his initially. This isn't the first time he's been taken from his home to find himself elsewhere by force. It would seem that his battles and his wars would never end.
But this time it wasn't Templars, though this war sounded distinctly like the war he had been waging back in Italia. The 'Initiative,' like the Assassins, battle for truth and freedom of thought. Was it so strange to hear all this similarity between his time and this time? For all he could figure, the Initiative were Assassins under another guise and the Templars hid behind the government, just like they hid behind the mantle of the Catholic Church.
Already The Initiative had begun to gather up their army, but Ezio? No, he wanted his own army, his own Brotherhood that he could train in the art of stealth and assassination. Maybe today he could find suitable recruits. It shouldn't be too hard, after all, if this place is filled with nothing but rebels and enemies of the state.
Weaving between pockets of people, he kept a keen eye on everyone and everything. The best recruits could be hiding in plain sight. He knew that all too well.
