Anything That's Nothing
An Assassin's Creed Story
By 7Spencer
Frederico de Carazzia perspective.
Firenze, Italy. One of the most heavily populated cities of the 1400s. With such a dense number of inhabitants, criminal activity has increased drastically from its original status, theft is happening everywhere in the city, and most importantly, the tyrannical Borgia have asserted their dominance. The Borgia family is a threat that must be extinguished from the world, and the people that are brave enough to stand up for what is right and combat this threat are the Assassins. You are Frederico de Carazzia, one of the few members of the Firenze division of the already spreading Brotherhood along with many others.
One of your duties as an Assassin is to see that the welfare and the thriving of the many citizens of Firenze stays even through the most apocalyptic conditions. To your physical capacities, an Assassin must always choose the lives of many rather than the lives of one. Frederico abides this Brotherhood law to the letter, but he will soon learn that the choice is harder to make than what he assumes, especially if the one life is someone you love...
Alessia DeFiore perspective.
The staggeringly large amount of wealth that your family possesses should be something that draws you away from becoming a protector of your home: you can just hire men to do that for you. DeFiore was inspired by her family's exciting and action-filled tales about the Assassin that preserved the Brotherhood, Altair Ibn-Lahad, to do the same as he and help protect her home in Firenze. Along with de Carazzia, she was one of the first citizens to be recruited into the brotherhood by el Mentore, Ezio de Auditore la Firenze, and she has helped resist the Borgia's influence of the city. Symbolic achievements such as the destruction of the many scattered Borgia towers is on her resume, as well as smaller achievements by helping a citizen escape the wrath of the Borgia's "taxpaying comitttee".
Alessia loves her main occupation as an Assassin and her auxiliary duty as an artisan, but when the time her death comes, she will realize that she has more to love than just simple objects. She does not know her own capacities, and what she thinks she is able to overcome will be her ultimate downfall in the very near future...
