Animi Avatars (second stage)

Similar to its predecessor, Assassin's Creed: Revelations includes a multiplayer portion, which features a variety of multiplayer personas for the player to choose between and the option to customize their appearance and weapons. Like Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, many multiplayer characters will be featured in the main storyline.

However, multiplayer characters play a bigger part than in Brotherhood, and in some cases, characters may actually need to be fought, found, or assassinated in the single-player game in order to unlock them for use in multiplayer.
