Nathalie Chapman

Nathalie Chapman (born 1964) is a doctor of the Clinique des Rameaux in Switzerland. She is also the daughter of the Assassins Boris Pash and Zenia.

Early life
Nathalie was born sometime in 1964 aboard the USS Maddox. Her mother, Zenia, heavily pregnant and injured was brought onboard to be treated but unfortunately died in childbirth. Her father, Borish Pash, named her before handing her to the Templar Warren Vidic to be raised by him. In exchange for saving his daughter, Pash was made to hand all his research on Project BLUEBIRD to Vidic, who was eager to learn about Genetic memory.

During the following years, Nathalie was raised by Vidic while he expanded his understanding of the genetic memories to the point where he was able to create the early prototypes of what would one day become the Animus. However around 1977, Vidic made the mistake of using Nathalie as his test subject, who through the memories of her father discovered that she was in fact a hostage of the Templars. Deciding to take her revenge, the thirteen years old girl managed to give a copy of the Animus blueprints to William Miles before fleeing Vidic's lab with the Apple of Eden that Pash used as a bargaining chip to save the life of Zenia and their child back in Vietnam.

Doctor in Switzerland
Nathalie, now an adult, had moved to Switzerland and become a doctor at the Clinique des Rameaux. In October 2017, an amnesiac girl was admitted under the name "Elisa Bouvyer" by her parents. Nathalie treated the girl to the best of her ability. Some time later, the specialist doctor known as "Florent Carpentier" visited the clinic to treat Elisa. Nathalie however, saw through his disguise and knew he was the Assassin Tomo Sakagawa and knew he was searching for the Templar agent Maxime Gorm. Nathalie also revealed her own Assassin allegiance. Chapman also told Tomo that Gorm was kidnapped in 2000 and experimented of by Thomas and Alice Adler, Elisa's parents, to which she suggested they should keep Elisa under their care. However, Tomo did not agree with essentially holding Elisa captive as it wasn't the Assassin way. Chapman told Tomo of her plan to kill Gorm and destroy the Adler's research. After some convincing, Tomo agreed. Nathalie had Tomo relive the memories of Alekseï Gavrani for her research.

During the following month, Chapman subjected Elisa to a prototype Animus she had built in an attempt to brainwash her. She also experimented on her other patients, intending to wipe their consciousness and replace them with long dead Assassins, as a form of permanent Bleeding Effect. However, when Tomo found out his vowed to put a stop to her. The next day, Natalie received news from her security officer Stanislas that Tomo had been killed by Gorm, and that Gorm and Elisa had escaped. Arriving home, she noticed that her house had been broken into. Finding an Assassin inside, Nathalie pleaded her innocence. As the Assassin descended on her prepared to kill, he was shot in the back by Stanislas. Nathalie then told Stanislas that she couldn't continue her research with the memories of Gavrani. She also required Maxime Gorm, and it was vital that she found him before the Assassins.
