    Rashid ad-Din Sinan (Al Mualim) was also a real person and leader of the Assassins. While he died in 1191 in the game, he actually died in 1192 of natural causes at around 57-60 years old. Also, the threat given to Saladin in the game was supposedly done by Altair's father, Umar, which was what led to him being killed. There's a book called "The Templars and the Assassins: The Militia of Heaven" by James Wasserman - it's absolutely fascinating. It really details how both orders came about, their progression, how they fell, and how bipolar the relationship between the two really was.

    The first recorded use of the Hidden Blade was dated during the 5th century, in the area known as modern day Iran, when Darius used it to assassinate King Xerxes I. By the High Middle Ages, Assassins were regularly outfitted with a Hidden Blade as part of their equipment. The blades saw wide use for assassinations, as they could be easily kept out of sight and allowed for quicker and stealthier eliminations.

    I actually heard that the Hidden Blade WAS historic to a certain extent. That history is reflected in this traditional part of making a contract which we call a handshake because the handshake originated as a physical demonstration of honesty, showing that you have nothing dangerous underneath your sleeve. This historical idea was demonstrated perfectly but possibly unintentionally by Jack Nicholson as the Joker in Tim Burtan's "Batman."

    In the assassins creed universe, rather than the assassins being wiped out by the mongols, Altair being the mentor (who had already made changes to the order's dealings and methods) decided to abandon the main assassin stronghold and sent the remaining assassins to spread over the globe and begin operating completely "off the grid", with the intention of keeping the subtlety to a maximum. This is how it can make sense for there to be assassins from every different kind of culture, And I suppose the same goes for Templars.

    Why is the illuminati bad? Aren't they trying to achieve world peace or…show more 7 Answers • History Best Answer (Chosen by Asker) Sorry but you have your facts totally mixed up and the Illuminati are (or rather were) not bad people and had no bad intentions. The Illuminati did exist as a secret society but they were secret only to protect themselves from persecution by the all powerful Roman Catholic church. They were all very intelligent and respected scientists philosophers and logical thinkers. One of the original members was Galileo who proved that the Earth rotated around the sun (which it does) but the church held that the sun rotated around the Earth (which it doesn't) because the Earth was the centre of the universe. Even though he was right, he was forced to recant and was held under house arrest for many years. Once the church lost its power, nearly 200 years ago, the Illuminati ceased to exist because science could be pursued openly and there was no need for secret societies. As a matter of interest, Galileo was a devout Roman Catholic. He also died about 200 years before the secret society was formed in Bavaria and the two groups may have been connected but were not the same entity. The New World Order (or the Illuminati taking over the world) would have happened many decades ago if it was going to happen at all - but it wasn't because, like the Devil worship nonsense, the whole thing was a malicious rumour set about by the Church to discredit the Illuminati and to maintain their own dubious integrity. Rumours simply developed over time into conspiracy theories. The idea that they still exist and all the melodramatic rubbish that goes with it is perpetuated by those who educate themselves from comic books and movies - the truly great thinkers of the world. In short, the Illuminati were not evil, they no longer exist but they have been replaced by a number of scams who claim to be Illuminati for their own financial benefit If you happen to be American, you have nothing to worry about as they never made it to America except in Dan Brown novels, comic books, movies and spurious groups who claim to be the Illuminati. Anybody who is, or claims to be, in the Illuminati is referring to one of the fake groups. Another point to think about is that if it is a secret society, nobody in it will talk about it. Besides this, the entry requirement was intelligence not cash or fame.

    As much as I know the leap of fate is made from a actual suicide jump from their strongholds walls. Salahadin wanted to show his man's royalty by ordering some one to jump down of the wall.He jumped because Assasins's belief in heaven was too strong. They loved death and wanted to die to get to heaven. May not be true, but I heard this from a history teacher back in middle school.

Maybe something about prophet Jesus's wine is drinked from that cup? I dont remember. Also 1 of the reasons Templars were strong was that you needed to be both a skilled swordsman and rich. For getting in you needed to donate all your gold to the creed.

    this is one of the situations where you also have to look back to the games when it comes to some of the equipment. Such as the hidden blades. Much of the equipment is said to be secret and if you look at the material it was made from it wouldn't be too hard to melt the blade down and burn the rest so that it wouldn't be discovered. And it's also supposed to be secret so it's like well why would the reveal themselves if they had survived past the invasions. That's actually one of the premises of the game is that Ezio's grandfather (or great grand father) had found journals of the order and brought them back, which might make it like the free masons without direct correlation, but it means that it could be possible such a brotherhood does exist.

I know tht they have gone out of shape in AC3 but that's pretty much it, I reckon all assassins creeds have had been good and unity has been amazing since it reminds of the good times climbing the stone built cities and exploring it in AC2. By far unity has been the best. Victory looks good aswell although I would prefer it to be on medieval and post medival story trend.

    Actually, the term "Assassin" Comes from the Arabic word "Hashashin". The Hashashin order that you are talking about was real, but their actual name was "al-da’wa al-jadida" (Arabic for "New Doctrine"). Their enemies called the Hashashins because it was Arabic meaning "Grass User". Hashish was a type of drug that the al-da’wa al-jadida would use before Assassinations to reduce the feelings of pain. So they were called Grass User's. Assassin is literally the modernized word of pot head haha. The modern term of "Assassin" Comes from the 19th century where stories based off of the real Hashashins were made and through translation errors it lead to the name Assassin.

    The hashashin were known for using a concoction which included hashish but was principally made up of alcohol. The whole "grass user" is bull, they didn't directly consume the cannabis plant they used the derivative "hashish" which was and is still widely used throughout Asia today and has strong ties to middle eastern tribes and south east Asian communities.

    Cone Dron I got this information from a reliable source, I can give it to you if you want. Like I said, "Hashashin" was not the name of the Assassin order (It was al-da’wa al-jadida), Hashashin was a term given to them by their enemies. So of course it would be seen as insulting. Plus, I am familiar with the Arabic language (Being of Arabic decent myself), Hashashin does mean Grass User (Well, not the exact translation but translation is difficult sometimes. Especially with a language like Arabic). Remember though, the al-da’wa al-jadida did not call themselves Hashashin, even though Hashish was not the primary drug they consumed it was the most famous according to their enemies and so they were named Hashashin (Grass User, Hashish itself means Grass) by their enemies. You have to understand the fact that their name was not "Hashashin", that was an insult given to them by their enemies.

    No..... actually the Assassins and the Templars worked together. They are part of the same occult lineage. There were bumpy moments in their relationship and several occasions where they murdered each other and engaged in battle, but the history shows that they often worked together and even fought together. There is much educated speculation which proposes that the Knights Templar learned their occult based semi-Islamic teachings from the Assassins. I believe this is the case, I believe the evidence shows that it is the Templar (along with jewish immigrants) who brought (or rather revived) eastern style occultism in Europe and that this transmission can be followed back directly to the Assassins.

    Actually, the term "assassin" can actually traced even further. The original mentor Hasan bin Sabbah was giving opium to the assassins before sending them to a mission and it rendered them basically fearless. The opium poppy - also called hash - is called "hashash" in Persian and the users called "hashashim" (Medieval Total War players should know). Thus, original world "assassin" basically means drug addict.

And what orders you ask? Basically assassinating politicians and what not to rule Iran. His fighters also fought the knights of the temple (the Illuminati founders creed)*

    When you talk about assassin weapons you point out that they didn't like to use poison, and imply that the games are wrong on the front. But the Developers have in fact accounted for this. According to the second game the assassins during the crusades didn't use poison but when Altair was in power he lifted the ban because he believed that some situations called for it and as such poison becomes an option in later games.

    The Knights Templars existed, the Assasins existed. Both were eventually wiped out en masse, after a long time of being very powerful. The Templars were crushed by the French; the Assassins by invading horse-archers from the steppes (not sure which tribe). Interestingly, they fed their members Hashish, which is where they got their name; and carried out a great many killings- mostly of Arabs before their citadel of Alamut was destroyed. I don't have my Middle ages books handy; so I am forced to use wikipedia as a source to reference to you. The Templars were powerful, and wealthy- and as such the Pope and the French king, who were both trying to enhance their power & prestige took aim at them; and managed to destroy them. I cannot speak to the Templar's motives, or abilities to carry out those motives; but those claims seem a bit fanciful to believe. It is possible that members of those organizations still exist, though highly unlikely given when they were obliterated; that being said- dogma used by them persists in many areas, such as the virgins when you martyr yourself (which did come from the koran, but was misused by the cult of assasins, as it is being done so now by terrorists). LAstly, at the risk of ticking off fanatics world-wide; those tales are stories. Allegories, tales of morals and origins; and are not real. There are kernels of truth in them sure, but they are no more word for word real than the Iliad or Odyssey.

    he Hashashin, also spelled Hashashiyyin or Hashshashin, were a radical sect within the Nizari Ismaili branch of Shi'i Islam. They formed during the 11th century and lasted until the 13th century. The group came to be known as something of an assassin's cult, a reputation they earned by their habit of covertly gaining access to high-profile political targets before murdering them in broad daylight. As a result, some believe that the word "assassin" originated from the name of this sect, a connection that's not difficult to make in light of their legendary brutality. The order was headquartered in Alamut, located in the Alborz Mountains of Persian Iran, and from this strategic center, they spread their operations out over various regions in Iran, Iraq, Egypt and Syria. Toward the end of the 11th century, Ismaili leader Hassan al-Sabah formed his assassin's group, primarily as a counter-movement to al-Musta'li, the new caliph of the Egyptian Fatimid Empire. The empire had undergone a political coup, through which the ailing Caliph's younger son, al-Musta'li, was appointed the new ruler. The rightful heir apparent, al-Musta'li's older brother Nizār, was subsequently killed in an attempt to wrest back control of the empire. Hassan had been a supporter of Nizār, and this episode is the reason why the Hashashin have also been called the Nizari.

    So. Here Wikipedia on this: The origins of the Assassins can be traced back to just before the First Crusade, around 1094 in Alamut, north of modern Iran, during a crisis of succession to the Fatimid caliphate.[3] There has been great difficulty finding out much information about the origins of the Assassins because most early sources are written by enemies of the order, are based on legends, or both.[citation needed] Most sources dealing with the order's inner workings were destroyed with the capture of Alamut, the Assassins' headquarters, by the Mongols in 1256. However, it is possible to trace the beginnings of the cult back to its first Grandmaster, Hassan-i Sabbah (1050s-1124).

    I thought the term Assassin comes from Ḥashshāshīn ( Arabic) , which comes from Hashish (Weed) they were given to smoke , so they feel themselves in "heaven". Hashishin = users of hashish

    GreyFace There are 5 main theories: 1) They smoked hashish, therefore, Hashashins 2) They didn't smoke hashish and it was just an insult. 3) They confused them with Sufis that did smoke hashish. 4) It comes from the word Hashem meaning a member of an Arab princely family claiming descent from Hashim, great-grandfather of Muhammad. 5) It means followers of Hassan-i Sabbah, or, Ahul Hassan.

    What?! No mention of the portuguese Order of Christ? The only difference between the Templar Order in Portugal and the Order of Christ is the name. King Denis changed the name to save it from persecution during that thing with the french king of the time and the pope. It's a well known fact in Portugal. In fact Tomar, the city where the Order was based in, is even today sometimes refered to as the Templar City. It's something that I rarely see referenced when speaking of the Templars and I think is the result of poor research. Not to mention that as a portuguese it really pisses me off.

    RZ-357 I'm not talking about those two orders. I'm talking about the Templars and how everyone claims they stopped existing during the 1300's when the Order of Christ (which, when it was first created, was exactly the same thing but with a different name and a slightly different symbol) still exists today. It's true that today it's only an honorific medal given to people, but it's still a thing. The Order was really important to Portugal. So important, in fact that during the Age of Discoveries (the 1400's/1600's) our ships had the Order's cross adorned on their sails. And if you know anything about Portugal you know that the Age of Discoveries was our kickass time, when during a brief period in time a small nation of relative unimportance was one of the richests and most influential countries in Europe. And that was all due to our navy, and their ability to find and colonize new land. And to have something as cool as Portugal, being the only savior and even today harbourer of the awesome Templar Order, be outright ignored is something that really cuts into my national pride. (if I had any. Our country sucks nowadays, that's my point)

    Rodrigo Rodrigues i think it was just another separate order, just like the teutonic Knights and the Knights of Malta were. Even if the Templars were disbanded people still loved the idea of chivalry orders. keep in mind that later knightly orders popped out in europe like mushrooms, any crown in the continent had its own honorific knightly order. In Italy for example besides the hospitaliers (even though they officially settled Rome only in 1863 they always had strong ties with Italy, just like the Templars with France and the Teutonics with the HRE/Germany)we had also the order of the Holy Sepulchre, founded in 1099.

    No I think it was the same order but with a different name. All sources that I have found so far claim that te order was created from the portuguese Templar order of the time and the remaining surviving european Templars. King Denis created it to protect them since they were of importance to the country (I think).

  • @GetitUnderCool

    Rodrigo Rodrigues maybe , it would have made sense to create a new order as a cover for the portuguese branch of templars, and after the french one (wich was the biggest and more powerful) being wiped out, there was no point of attacking the portuguese branch anyway, since they posed no threat to french crown. But i'm not really convinced.

    In the AC games someone said (can't remember who it was) that the Creed isn't bound by blood relation but by an idea. So technically the order can be completely destroyed and be rebuilt centuries afterwards by anyone, anywhere if they followed the same idea, the same code.
