Adventurer

"Fancy a dance with the devil?"

―The Adventurer.

The Adventurer

The Adventurer (harvested from: Alejandro Ortega de Márquez) was an Animi Avatar used by the entertainment branch of Abstergo Industries, as part of their plan to influence the general public, via the console stage of the Animus technology. He used a sword as his specialty weapon.

Unique Moves

The Adventurer had several unique moves:

(Low Profile, Front)

Facing his target, the Adventurer pulls out his sword and strikes them in the forehead with its hilt. He then takes advantage of their defenselessness by piercing his victim's stomach with his blade and withdrawing it quickly, watching them crumple to the floor, dead.

(Low Profile, Back)

Behind his target, the Adventurer draws his sword, before slashing it horizontally across their spine, causing them to go weak at the knees. He then follows through with his attack by wedging his blade into the right of his victim's abdomen, and proceeds to free his sword by forcing them forwards with his foot, the weapon slashing through their side along the way.

(High Profile, Front)

Approaching his target, the Adventurer pulls out his sword and slashes them across the stomach in one fluid motion, which causes them to kneel forward from the sudden pain. Using this to his advantage, he embeds the blade downwards into his victim's throat and rips it back out, causing them to fall forward and choke on their own blood.

(High Profile, Back)

Surprising his target from behind, the Adventurer thrusts his sword into their back, before slowly and painfully forcing the blade through until it fully penetrates them, the hilt adjacent to their body. As his victim stares down at the blade, the Adventurer roughly pulls it free, before they collapse to the ground dead shortly afterward.

(Personal High Profile, Front)

Running up to his target, the Adventurer roughly pushes their head, and, while they stumble back, draws his sword. Swinging it above his head, he suddenly slashes his blade to the left, severing his victim's jugular vein and causing them to collapse to the floor while he sheathes his sword away.

(Personal High Profile, Back)

Rushing towards his target from behind, the Adventurer forcefully kicks them in the back of their legs, forcing them on their knees. He then raises his sword before slashing it down harshly into their right shoulder, causing them to recoil in pain. Following this, the Adventurer dislodges his blade by kicking his victim off, leaving them to die of their injuries on the ground.

(Aerial Kill)

Leaping onto his target from above, the Adventurer removes his sword in mid-air. When he lands, he forces them onto their back and impales his victim in their heart with his sword, before standing and leaving their motionless corpse on the ground.

(Bench Kill)

Grabbing his seated target's foot, the Adventurer drags them off the bench until their head rests against it. Before his victim can do anything to defend themselves, he forcefully kicks them in the face, violently sending their head backwards and breaking his target's neck on the bench behind them.
