Frederick III, Elector of Saxony

Friedrich der Weise (1463 – 1525) was a German scholar during the Italian Renaissance.

Biography
Sometime around 1500, Friedrich planned to found a school that would question the actions of the Borgia openly. The Borgia tried to prevent this from happening by sending Friedrich a large ammount of money as a bribe.

The Assassins learned of the bribe and Ezio Auditore da Firenze sent a team of Apprentices to intercept the money, having them dress like bandits to prevent the Borgia from growing suspicious. They then used the money as a anonymous gift to Friedrich and his school.
