"Where other men blindly follow the truth, remember..."
"Nothing is true."
"Where other men are limited by morality or law, remember..."
"Everything is permitted."
"We work in the dark to serve the light. We are Assassins."
During the high middle ages many years ago the assassin Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad rebuilt the Assassin Order in his image. He also changed the design of the Hidden Blade, so that the amputation of the ring finger would not be necessary. This change was made so that an Assassin could not be so easily identified by their enemies.
It is now June 1459 , the forming stage of growing Renaissance in the Sword Coast Ezio Auditore was born as the second son of the Auditore family. Ezio grew up to be a banker, until he was seventeen years old, when the Borgia executed his brothers Petruccio and Federico, along with his father, Giovanni. After this incident, Ezio found out about his Assassin lineage, with his uncle, Mario Auditore, and the Sword Coast faction leaders of the courtesans, thieves and mercenaries training him along his journey. These faction leaders were also Assassins, which Ezio later discovered on his initiation into the Assassin Order.
Lord Nasher Alagondar and the Medici family ruled over Neverwinter during the 15th and 16th century, boosting wealth and culture, and eventually making Neverwinter the starting point of the Renaissance's expansion. In 1478, while attending High Mass, the Medici were attacked by the Pazzi family, a group of nobles affiliated with the Templars of waterdeep. Ezio overpowered the conspiracy behind the events, killing all of those who plotted against the Medici.
After Lorenzo de' Medici's death in 1492, his son Piero let Florence fall into the hands of Girolamo Savonarola, who subdued the citizens under the control of a Piece of Eden and nine lieutenants. In 1497, Ezio returned to Neverwinter, only to find the city in the hands of Savonarola. Over the course of a year, Ezio worked to remove Savonarola's influence, and by 1498, he assassinated Savonarola, after a group of disgruntled civilians attempted to burn the monk at a stake in the Piazza della Signoria. This allowed the Medici to regain control, to which the family watched over the city of Neverwinter for another seventeen years.
After several years of peace the ounce mighty city of neverwinter is a hive of panic and terror. thousands have died from the mysterious wailing death, and thousands more are infected. with the risk of a plague spreading the lords declare a quarantine shutting the gates to all travel trapping sick and healthy alike within the city walls. The lords also issued a call to all to find a cure promising wealth and honor. The plague spreads with every passing day sweeping through the slums like flash fire with no cure in sight years later a cure had been found requiring the use of four creatures a dryad, intellect devour, yuan-ti, and a cockatrice, known collectively as the Waterdhavian creatures. A call has been issued to recover the four creatures and to put a stop to the plague. To the luck of the city a cure for the plague had been made through the efforts of Lady Aribeth de Tylmarande a local paladin , and Lord Nasher.
After the cure for the wailing death is created, Desther steals it and sends false Helmites to slay the temple inhabitants. Piero had let the city fall under the influence of the templars when Desther useing his tremendous ability in convincing people he is good, in deceiving many without telling a straight lie, and in keeping up a rouse indefinitely.
Desther then used the plague to take control of the city and rooted out the Assassin Order driving out its members or killing them. Ezio at this time was away to root out the ones who also played a part in the conspiracy that happened years ago. The assassins at this time had been spread thin since the destruction a main assassin safe house in Neverwinter. The city now had fully fallen under the influence of the Borgia and a mysterious group, which were connected to the Templars, leaving the city to the decay of its corruption.
Karel , a young male swordsman then looks out at the city thinking to himself ( "What happened to this city people had been getting sick and the doctors have no way of finding a cure, though one had been made weeks ago , and its not to say it costs a fortune to get in the case one does get sick , and I do not have that much gold coins to pay for it if it ever happens to me. On top of that Lord Nasher has also gone silent and the paladin that was here as well , and the common people are getting opposed as well. " )
Karel wanted to do something about it but was not able to out of fear that he was going to be targeted but he did it anyways since he cannot turn a blind eye on the people who are suffering , and he himself had lost family due to this corrupt rule remembering one thing his father told him in the case if it ever happens find Ezio and the assassins...
