A '''Piece of Eden''' is a type of technologically sophisticated device created by the [[Isu]] which reacts with the network of [[neurotransmitter]]s [[Project Anthropos|engineered]] into [[human]] brains. With the notable exception of the [[Shrouds of Eden]], the majority of Pieces of Eden were designed for the primary purpose of mentally and physically controlling human thoughts, emotions, and behaviour. They were therefore the main instrument by which the Isu forced the humans to serve as [[slavery|slave labour]].

The powers of the Pieces of Eden have mystified humanity over millennia, enough for them to conflate them with "magic" throughout history. The extinction of the Isu civilization following the [[Great Catastrophe]] only reinforced this, as memories of the Isu for the humans faded into legends and myths. Since humans lack the technological expertise to reproduce these devices, they have long been the subject of innumerable conflicts between rival humans seeking them for their own ends. In particular, they are a central obsession of the [[Templars|Templar Order]], which has devoted much of their resources for millennia searching and seizing these artifacts in their quest for [[New World Order|world domination]].

Although the main classes of Pieces of [[Eden]], such as the [[Apples of Eden|Apples]] and [[Staves of Eden]], were utilized as tools by which humanity could be controlled, others deviated from this purpose. The [[Swords of Eden]] are primarily weapons capable of emitting energy blasts while the [[Shrouds of Eden]] are medical in nature, designed for healing even the most mortal of wounds. The diverse functions of the devices extend further: many are capable of bending the thoughts of one or more individuals to that of the user, projecting illusions or concealing the user's presence. The [[Precursor box]]es, powered by other Pieces of Eden, can imprint the memories of its users onto others and decode examples of [[Isu script]], like the [[Voynich manuscript]]. Other functions are more mundane relative to modern human technology, such as the projection of holograms or the [[Crystal Skulls]] which act as long distance communication devices, but these nevertheless appeared supernatural to ancient peoples.

Since the end of the Isu civilization, these devices, appearing sporadically in the hands of humans, have acquired a status as legendary relics of phenomenal properties. Greatly eclipsing the technological level of human civilization, even into [[modern times]], the Pieces of Eden bestow tremendous power over society to those who come to possess them. Their employment has therefore had immense impacts on human history; some of the most influential leaders such as [[Alexander the Great]], [[Genghis Khan]], [[Napoleon Bonaparte]], and [[Mahatma Gandhi]] were aided by their use of a Piece of Eden.

The Pieces of Eden have a long history that punctuates the tales of humanity. During the [[War of Unification]], the Isu [[Hephaistos]] created Swords of Eden for the conflict. His apprentice [[Consus]] created a [[Shroud of Eden 1|Shroud of Eden]] to heal the soldiers.<ref name="ACS">''[[Assassin's Creed: Syndicate]]''</ref> He later put his consciousness in the artifact. The Apples of Eden were used to control humans, who were created by [[Phanes]] during the [[Project Anthropos]] to work as slaves for the Isu.<ref name="JoA"/> Humans react to the effects of the Pieces of Eden through a unique network of neurotransmitters implanted in the brain.<ref name="AC2">''[[Assassin's Creed II]]''</ref>

Amongst the greatest tools known to man, the Apples of Eden can control the human mind by interacting with a neurotransmitter located deep in the human brain. Other Pieces of Eden are capable of warping reality, creating illusions, ensuring total obedience and healing physical injuries.<ref name="AC2">''[[Assassin's Creed II]]''</ref><ref name="ACPL">''[[Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy]]''</ref>

Both Templars and the Assassins believe that the Pieces of Eden were responsible for many historical tales and miracles, such as {{Wiki|the Parting of the Red Sea}}, the [[Trojan War]], [[Jesus of Nazareth]]'s miracles, and the Biblical plagues that ravaged [[Egypt]].<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed]]'' – [[Assassination (Majd Addin)]]</ref> According to Dr. [[Álvaro Gramática]], all Pieces of Eden are made of an unknown metal resembling gold or silver that Abstergo dubbed "pathorica".<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Syndicate]]'' – [[Database: Reconstructed Data 002]]</ref>

However, interbreeding between humans and members of the Isu led to the creation of a [[hybrid]] race, which was immune to the hypnotic effects of the Pieces of Eden. In 75,010 BCE, two of these hybrids, [[Adam]] and [[Eve]], stole one of the Apples from their masters and escaped from captivity in [[Eden]]. Soon after, [[Human-Isu War|war broke out]], pitting humanity against their creators.<ref name="AC2" />
  
   
  +
===Abilities of a Piece===
−
While the rest of the Isu were preoccupied with battling the humans, [[Jupiter]], Juno and [[Minerva]] were tasked with finding a way to guard against the threat of an impending [[Great Catastrophe|solar flare]]. They relocated to the [[Grand Temple]] in what is now [[Turin, New York]]<ref name="ACR">''[[Assassin's Creed: Revelations]]''</ref>, a facility which could only be entered using an [[Apple of Eden 6|Apple of Eden]]. Opening the Temple's inner gate required another Piece of Eden, namely the [[Grand Temple Key]].<ref name="AC3">''[[Assassin's Creed III]]''</ref>
  
  +
Some Pieces of Eden were known to interact with and change the passage of time, possibly creating paradoxes. Others were able to "speak" to those who wielded them, as was the case with the [[Italian Brotherhood of Assassins|Italian Assassins]] [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze|Ezio Auditore]] with his Apple<ref>[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood (novel)|''Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood'' novel]]</ref> and both [[Perotto Calderon]] and [[Giovanni Borgia]] with a [[Shroud of Eden 1|Shroud]].<ref name="ACPL"/>
   
  +
When activated, Apples of Eden are capable of extending a pulse of energy that can drive those in the surrounding area to insanity and death. Doing so has a detrimental effect on the physical health of the wielder if they are unskilled in the Apples' use, but a capable user is not as easily afflicted.<ref name="ACBH">''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]''</ref> The [[Levantine Brotherhood of Assassins|Levantine Assassins]]' [[Mentor]] [[Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad]], for example, was able to use one Apple for a limited duration without adverse affects at age 92.<ref name="ACR">''[[Assassin's Creed: Revelations]]'' – [[Passing the Torch]]</ref> Using the Pieces' powers in short bursts can also minimize the negative effects dealt by the artifacts, though to what extent is unknown.<ref name="AC2"/>
−
By that time, the Isu were already able to generate small magnetic fields through the [[Shards of Eden]], which were worn as rings. Using similar technology, they hoped to create a large magnetic field to protect the [[Earth]] from the [[sun]]'s flare. However, they lacked the resources to do so, and though they attempted to create fields to protect small portions of the Earth, they were ultimately unsuccessful.<ref name="AC3" />

====Destruction of a Piece====
−
[[File:AC3 Juno Enthrallment Solution.png|thumb|250px|A projection of Jupiter controlling humans with an Apple of Eden]]
  
  +
Following the [[DIA satellite accident|destruction]] of Altaïr's Apple during an experiment at the [[Denver]] International Airport, the Templars found themselves in need of another artifact with similar properties. To that end, Abstergo kidnapped the [[United States|American]] bartender and former Assassin [[Desmond Miles]] in order to view the memories of his ancestor Altaïr<ref>''Assassin's Creed'' – [[21st century conversations|Modern day]]</ref> and ultimately saw a holographic [[Isu map|map]] that Altaïr discovered in 1191 of various Piece locations.<ref>''Assassin's Creed'' – [[Assassination (Al Mualim)]]</ref>
−
The Isu soon discovered that when enough humans sat in thrall of the Pieces of Eden and were forced to believe, their thoughts became reality. Jupiter, Juno and Minerva considered the possibility that they could use an agglomeration of focused human imagination to save the planet. This attempt was also deemed unsuccessful.<ref name="AC3" />
  
   
  +
[[File:Tungaska Explod v.png|thumb|250px|left|The Tunguska explosion]]
−
As their third option, they sent an Apple of Eden into the orbit, and when it was placed, uttered the words "make us safe". When their first attempt failed, they resolved to send a dozen more after. This act was also met with failure as there was no way to direct the beams of energy emitted by the Pieces down to the Earth.<ref name="AC3" />
  
  +
Each of the Pieces of Eden contained a great deal of potential energy, and the destruction of one could cause an explosion on the scale of a nuclear blast. One such [[Tunguska explosion|explosion]] occurred in 1908, in the region of [[Tunguska]], [[Russia]]. The [[Imperial Sceptre]], one of the Staves of Eden, was seemingly destroyed when [[Nikola Tesla]] fired at the Tunguska facility with his wireless electric weapon, attempting to strike a blow against the Templars.<ref name="AC2"/><ref name="AC">''Assassin's Creed''</ref><ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: The Fall]]'' – [[Assassin's Creed: The Fall 3|Issue #2]]</ref>
   
  +
However, the blast failed to totally destroy the Staff and at least one shard remained.<ref>''Assassin's Creed: The Fall'' – [[Assassin's Creed: The Fall 3|Issue #3]]</ref> The Staff shard still possessed powers of mind control, as demonstrated by [[Grigori Rasputin]]. While he was in possession of the shard, he brainwashed Tsar [[Nicholas II of Russia|Nicholas II]]'s wife {{Wiki|Alexandra Feodorovna}} as well as several disciples like [[Khioniya Guseva]].<ref name="ACPL"/>
−
Only ten years after the human rebellion began, the solar flare destroyed most of the Earth's surface and population, leaving roughly ten thousand humans alive and far fewer of the Isu.<ref name="ACR" /> The remaining members of the Isu came to be revered as gods by the humans; knowing that extinction awaited them, they began to aid the humans and guide their culture in turn, attempting to help them in the case another [[Second Disaster|disaster]] struck.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed Encyclopedia]]''</ref>

Many mythological legends and events have been linked to the Pieces of Eden. In [[Greece]], the hero [[Perseus]] used a Sword of Eden against a [[Writhing Dread]], a creation of the Project Olympos who is known in myths as the gorgon Medusa.<ref name="ACOD">''[[Assassin's Creed: Odyssey]]''</ref> One of the twelve labours of [[Herakles]] involved the retrieval of Apples of Eden, and the central focus of [[Jason]]'s quest with the Argonauts was the recovery of a Shroud of Eden called the Golden Fleece.<ref name="Glyphs">''[[Assassin's Creed II|AC2]]'' – [[Glyphs]]</ref> Some of these heroes fought the hybrids of the Project Olympos, as the [[Minotaur]] was slain by the king [[Theseus]], the [[Cyclops]] was blinded by [[Odysseus]], and the [[Sphinx]] was outsmarted by [[Oedipous]].<ref name="ACOD"/> An Apple of Eden was also the cause of the [[Trojan War]].<ref name="AC" />
  
  +
Although the Isu created humanity to be susceptible to the Pieces of Eden, eventual cross-breeding between them and their slaves led to the birth of a [[hybrid]] species. These new humans possessed some of the [[Eagle Vision|natural abilities]] of their creators and were free of the neurotransmitter necessary for the Pieces of Eden to control them. The first two known hybrids were [[Adam]] and [[Eve]], who later stole one of the Apples of Eden and instigated the [[Human-Isu War]].<ref name="AC2"/>
   
  +
Members of their lineage inherited these natural abilities and immunity to the Pieces, although the Pieces' ability to physically manipulate them remained.<ref name="AC"/> These traits were passed down through generations.<ref name="AC2"/> By the early 21st century, the Templars were aware that some humans were immune to the Pieces' mind control. On at least one occasion, Dr. Warren Vidic received an email from one such individual who had witnessed the mishap in Denver and threatened to expose what they had seen when an Apple was used on others.<ref>''Assassin's Creed'' – [[Warren Vidic's email]]: Subject line: "I KNOW"</ref>

===Biblical mythology===
  
−
In the Hebrew Bible, many figures realized miracles with Pieces of Eden. [[Joseph]], son of Jacob, was in possession of a Shroud of Eden. The prophet [[Moses]] used a Staff of Eden to create an illusion that he parted and closed the [[Red Sea]]. The King [[David]] used a Shroud of Eden during his fight with [[Goliath]].<ref name="Glyphs"/>

During the 14th century BCE, the Pharaoh [[Akhenaten|Amenhotep IV]] acquired an [[Akhenaten's Apple of Eden|Apple of Eden]]. Believing it was the god [[Aten (deity)|Aten]] itself, he took the name Akhenaten and, with his wife [[Nefertiti]], introduced a new monotheistic religion to [[Egypt]].<ref name="CotP">''[[Assassin's Creed: Origins]]'' – ''[[The Curse of the Pharaohs]]''</ref> When he died, his son [[Smenkhkare]] created the [[Order of the Ancients]] with the aim of identifying and exploiting the Pieces of Eden.<ref name="ACO">''[[Assassin's Creed: Origins|]]''</ref> After his death, his brother [[Tutankhamun]] restored the traditional polytheistic religious system in Egypt and gave the Apple to the High Priests of [[Amun (deity)|Amun]] in [[Karnak]].<ref name="CotP"/>

Later, Pythagoras found the [[Hermeticists|Cult of Hermes]], a group dedicated to the teachings of Hermes Trismegistus. A faction of Hermeticists led by [[Agamemnon]] broke away to form the [[Cult of Kosmos]]. Under the [[Sanctuary of Delphi]], they uncovered a [[Pyramid (Isu)|pyramidal Piece of Eden]] which could share memories and visions of the future. With its power, the Cult forced the [[Pythia]] to serve as their puppet and sow discord across Greece for their own interests.<ref name="ACOD"/>

During the invasion of Greece by King [[Xerxes I of Persia]], King [[Leonidas I of Sparta]], led the Spartans into war against the Persians with an [[Spear of Leonidas|Isu spear]] in his hand. When he made his last stand at the [[Battle of Thermopylae]] in 480 BCE, the shaft of the spear was broken, but the spearhead was recovered and given to his daughter [[Myrrine]] who in turn passed it onto to her daughter, [[Kassandra]]. Kassandra which grow up to become a legendary ''[[mercenary|misthios]]'' at the height of the [[Peloponnesian War]], using the Spear of Leonidas in all her military escapades. Conversely, the [[Sword of Damokles]], a Sword of Eden, found its way into the hands of her half-brother [[Alexios]] who was abducted by the Cult of Kosmos, renamed Deimos, and indoctrinated into becoming their most powerful warrior.<ref name="ACOD"/>

With the Spear, Kassandra fought and destroyed the Cult of Kosmos, defeated [[Alexios]], and destroyed the Pyramid. She also recovered the Atlantis artifacts by killing the hybrids of Olympos Project and sealed the Atlantis with it. After that, the Isu [[Aletheia]] sent a message to her father Pythagoras asking him to give her the Staff of Hermes Trismegistus. Kassandra became immortal and learned how to use the Staff through Aletheia's simulations. When the power of the spear faded away, Kassandra gave it to her friend [[Herodotos]] who was buried with it.<ref name="ACOD"/>

By 49 BCE, the Order of the Ancients had acquired an [[Apple of Eden 2|Apple of Eden]]. A group led by the proconsul of [[Cyrenaica]], [[Flavius Metellus]], went to the remote Egyptian village [[Siwa]] and kidnapped the [[Medjay]] [[Bayek]] and his son [[Khemu]] to force him to open a [[Siwa Vault|Isu vault]] under the [[Temple of Amun]]. They had hoped that the mysteries within the vault would grant them with more power or access to other Pieces of Eden. As the Medjay resisted, Flavius Metelluskilled his son before leaving Bayek for dead. After that, the [[Oracle of Amun]] and Ancient [[Medunamun]] kept the artifact and tyrannized the village of Siwa. A year later, Bayek returned and beat to death Meduamun with the Apple.

During the [[Alexandrine Civil War]], the Ancients recovered the Staff of Alexander the Great and convinced [[Julius Caesar]] and Cleopatra to ally with them, lending the Staff to Cleopatra for a time after the end of the civil war. The Order seized back the Staff and murdered Apollodorus to recover the Apple. Returning to Siwa, Flavius Metellus opened the vault by combining the Apple and the Staff. Within the vault, he discovered a holographic map revealing the locations of other Pieces of Eden. This map was downloaded by the Apple. After that, the Ancient [[Lucius Septimius]] took the Staff to [[Rome]] where he gave it to the Order while Flavius Metellus kept the Apple and used its power to mentally enslave the people of Cyrenaica. When he was confronted by Bayek at the Temple of Mars, he again relied on the device to try to defeat the Medjay, but it was all for naught as his nemesis managed to slay him anyways.

In the meantime, Septimius himself had in his possession the [[Lucius Septimius' flails|Flails of Eden]]. Adopting these as his signature weapon, he wielded them in personal combat against Aya at the [[Theatre of Pompey]], but like Flavius Metellus before him, his advantage proved inadequate, and he was killed by Aya. Not long afterwards, Aya and Bayek founded the [[Hidden Ones]] to counter the Order of the Ancients, and she rallied a group of Roman senators to assassinate Julius Caesar.<ref name="ACO"/> When these senators, chief among them [[Marcus Junius Brutus]] and [[Gaius Cassius Longinus]], perished in the ensuing war against Caesar's adopted son [[Augustus|Octavian]], the Hidden Ones desperately tried to resurrect Brutus with the original Shroud of Eden. They were devastated to find that at most, they could only reanimate him for a brief moment.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy|AC: PL]]'' – [[Holidays: Chapter 1 – Ghosts of Christmas Past]]</ref>

In 38 BCE, the [[God's Wife of Amun]] [[Isidora]] used the Akhenaten's Apple of Eden against the tomb robbers of the [[Valley of the Kings]] to avenge her mother's death. The power of the Apple created illusions of undead pharaohs who attacked the citizens of [[Thebes, Egypt|Thebes]], causing them to believe that there was a curse.<ref name="CotP"/> Bayek, having heard rumors of golden light on the road to Thebes, reached the [[Seth-Anat Tomb]] and fought undead soldiers. In the tomb, he met a man who tasked him to recover a [[Seth-Anat stone|stone]] which was in the tomb. After returning the stone, the man disappeared and Bayek was defeated by undead soldiers. When he woke up, a woman explained that he was found in the desert. As he tried to tell his story, the woman thought he had only been hallucinating. Bayek decided to investigate the city.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Origins|ACO]]'' – [[Lights Among the Dunes]]</ref>

Bayek received a letter from Aya who explained to him that a Piece of Eden was hidden in Thebes. Just when he arrived, he was attacked by a vision of Nefertiti. While investigating the city to find the Piece of Eden, Bayek met Isidora, who hid the truth and told him that he must fight the curse by appeasing the pharaohs in the afterlife as the [[Aaru]] and the [[Aten (afterlife)|Aten]]. When Bayek uncovered the truth, he killed Isidora and tasked to the robber [[Sutekh]] to hid the Apple. Later, Bayek found the corpse of Sutekh, not knowing if he accomplished his mission.<ref name="CotP"/>

Seeking the Apple to aid them in their mission and ensure their rule, the Templars used the cover of the Third Crusade to infiltrate the temple. However, one of their own betrayed them; [[Al Mualim]], the [[Mentor|leader]] of the [[Levantine Brotherhood of Assassins|Assassin Order]] who had secretly been allied to them, had sent his best agents to procure the device. [[Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad]], [[Malik Al-Sayf]], and [[Kadar Al-Sayf]] intercepted the Templars, and the two parties engaged one another. While the Templars were able to eject Altaïr from the battle and kill Kadar, Malik successfully captured the Apple and spirited it back to the Assassin fortress in [[Masyaf]].<ref name="AC" />

Over the following year, the Assassins and Templars fought one another for control of the artifact until the conflict was ended with the deaths of both Robert and Al Mualim at the hands of Altaïr. Originally intending to destroy the Apple, Altaïr found himself unable to do so, and instead decided to seal the Apple in the [[Limassol]] [[Templar Archive|Archives]]. Circumstances worked against this plan however, and he decided to keep the Apple for himself, not just to prevent it from falling into the wrong hands but also as a vital object of research.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Bloodlines]]''</ref>

The Templars sought to manipulate the neurotransmitters that made humanity susceptible to the Pieces' hypnotic effects. To accomplish this goal, they devised the [[Eye-Abstergo]] project, which would end in the launch of an "all-in-one telecommunication" satellite into orbit around Earth. However, unbeknownst to the rest of humanity, the satellite would contain an Apple of Eden, and spread its power across the globe.<ref name="AC" />

[[File:Retrieval 18.png|thumb|250px|Desmond killing Lucy]]

On 10 October 2012, an Assassin team of [[Lucy Stillman]], [[Desmond Miles]], [[Shaun Hastings]], and [[Rebecca Crane]] located the Apple of Eden [[Colosseum Vault|hidden]] by [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze|Ezio Auditore]] beneath the [[Santa Maria in Aracoeli|Santa Maria Aracoeli]] in 1506, discovered by Desmond as he relived Ezio's memories in the Animus. When Desmond touched the Apple, Juno gained access to his nervous system for a brief time.

Upon release from Juno's control, Desmond fell into a coma, but was able to regain consciousness through achieving a [[Synch Nexus]].<ref name="ACR" /> Desmond, his father [[William Miles|William]], Shaun and Rebecca later arrived at the entrance of the Grand Temple in [[New York]], where Desmond used the Apple to open the central chamber gate.

Desmond travelled to Rome and entered the facility, killing the Abstergo agents and [[Daniel Cross]]. Arriving at Vidic's office, Desmond used the Apple to force the facility's guards to shoot Vidic and themselves, then released his father from confinement. Due to Vidic's death and failure to retrieve the Apple of Eden, the Eye-Abstergo project was put on hold indefinitely.<ref name="AC3" />

Amongst the greatest tools known to man, the Apples of Eden can control the human mind by interacting with a neurotransmitter located deep in the human brain. Other Pieces of Eden are capable of warping reality, creating illusions, ensuring total obedience and healing physical injuries.<ref name="AC2" /><ref name="ACPL">''[[Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy]]''</ref> Both Templars and the Assassins believe that the Pieces of Eden were responsible for many historical tales and miracles, such as {{Wiki|the Parting of the Red Sea}}, the {{Wiki|Trojan War}}, the miracles enacted by [[Jesus Christ]], and the Biblical plagues that ravaged [[Egypt]].<ref name="AC" /> According to Dr. [[Álvaro Gramática]], all Pieces of Eden are made of an unknown metal resembling gold or silver that Abstergo dubbed 'Pathorica'.{{Fact|June 2019}}
  
−  
−
===Abilities of the Pieces===
  
−
Some Pieces of Eden were known to interact with and change the passage of time, possibly creating paradoxes. Others were able to "speak" to those who wielded them, as was the case with Ezio Auditore, [[Perotto Calderon]] and [[Giovanni Borgia]], who spoke with Ezio's Apple and the [[Shroud of Eden 1|Shroud]].<ref name="ACPL" /><ref>[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood (novel)|''Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood'' novel]]</ref>
  
−  
−
When activated, Apples of Eden are capable of extending a pulse of energy that can drive those in the surrounding area to insanity and death. Doing so has a detrimental effect on the physical health of the wielder if they are unskilled in the Apples' use, but a capable user is not as easily afflicted.<ref name="ACBH" /> Altaïr, for example, was able to use Apple #2 for a limited duration without adverse affects at age 92.<ref name="ACR" /> Using the Pieces' powers in short bursts can also minimize the negative effects dealt by the artifacts, though to what extent is unknown.<ref name="AC2" />
  
−  
−
====Destruction of a Piece====
  
−
Following the destruction of Apple of Eden #2 during an experiment at the [[Denver]] International Airport, the Templars found themselves in need of another artifact with similar properties. Seeking access to a map that indicated the location of all Pieces of Eden, Abstergo kidnapped Desmond Miles in order to view the memories of his ancestor, Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad. This would allow them to see the very same map that Altaïr discovered in 1191.<ref name="AC" />
  
−  
−
[[File:Tungaska Explod v.png|thumb|250px|left|The Tunguska explosion]]
  
−
Each of the Pieces of Eden contained a great deal of potential energy, and the destruction of one could cause an explosion on the scale of a nuclear blast. One such [[Tunguska explosion|explosion]] occurred in 1908, in the region of [[Tunguska]], [[Russia]]. The [[Imperial Sceptre]], one of the Staves of Eden, was seemingly destroyed when [[Nikola Tesla]] fired at the Tunguska facility with his wireless electric weapon, attempting to strike a blow against the Templars.<ref name="AC2" /><ref name="AC" /><ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: The Fall]]'' - Issue #2</ref>
  
−  
−
However, the blast failed to totally destroy the Staff, and at least one shard remained.<ref>''Assassin's Creed: The Fall'' - Issue #3</ref> The Staff shard still possessed powers of mind control, as demonstrated by [[Grigori Rasputin]]. While he was in possession of the shard, he brainwashed {{Wiki|Alexandra Feodorovna}}, the wife of [[Nicholas II of Russia|Tsar Nicholas II of Russia]], as well as several disciples like [[Khioniya Guseva]].<ref name="ACPL" />

−
Although the Isu created humanity to be susceptible to the Pieces of Eden, eventual cross-breeding between them and their slaves led to the birth of a hybrid species. These new humans possessed some of the [[Eagle Vision|natural abilities]] of their creators and were free of the neurotransmitter necessary for the Pieces of Eden to control them.<ref name="AC2" />
  
−  
−
The first two known hybrids were Adam and Eve, who later stole one of the Apples of Eden and instigated the Human-Isu War.<ref name="AC2" /> Members of their lineage inherited these natural abilities and immunity to the Pieces, although the Pieces' ability to physically manipulate them remained.<ref name="AC" /> These traits were passed down through generations to the likes of Altaïr, Ezio and Desmond.<ref name="AC2" />
  
−  
−
By the early 21st century, the Templars were aware that some humans were immune to the Pieces' mind control. On at least one occasion, Dr. Warren Vidic received an [[Warren Vidic's email|email]] from an individual unaffected by the Apple's power, who threatened to expose what they had seen when an Apple was used on others.<ref name="AC" />

Apples of Eden are all capable of controlling the hearts and minds of humanity, creating illusions and, to a degree, permitting control over physical bodies.<ref name="AC" /> The Apples can be used in conjunction with a Staff, which increases the power of both the Pieces of Eden. Other Pieces include the Shroud, which heals the wounds of those it touches on a cellular level; the [[Ankh]], capable of resurrecting the dead; and the Sword, a Piece which can project energy blasts and enhance the charisma of its welders. It was possessed by many great rulers through the centuries, including [[Arthur|King Arthur]], [[Genghis Khan]] and [[Attila the Hun]].<ref name="AC2" /> A Sword was also in possession of the Knights Templar by 1307, and was subsequently entombed beneath the [[Temple (Paris)|Temple]] in [[Paris]].

At one point, a Crystal Skull came into the possession of Giovanni Borgia, who made use of its power in 1542.<ref name="ACPL" /> Similar artifacts known as [[Crystal Balls]] allowed users to access the Nexus and communicate with members of the Isu.<ref name="ACPL" /><ref name="AC3" /> One of the Crystal Balls was notably used by the Assassin [[Ratonhnhaké:ton]] to communicate with Juno.<ref name="AC3" /> In addition, the Assassin [[Aveline de Grandpré]] discovered a [[Prophecy Disks|Prophecy Disk]] in the Isu Temple of [[Chichen Itza]], which showed her the election of Eve as the leader of humanity's rebellion against the Isu.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed III: Liberation]]''</ref>

*According to the [[Glyphs]] and [[The Truth|Truth files]], many legends and myths throughout human history are actually historically accurate.

Eden 2 v

Humans being controlled by an Isu with an Apple of Eden

A Piece of Eden is a type of sophisticated technology created by the Isu which reacts with the network of neurotransmitters engineered into human brains. With the notable exception of the Shrouds of Eden, the majority of the Pieces of Eden were designed for the primary purpose of mentally and physically controlling human thoughts, emotions, and behavior. They were, therefore, the main instrument by which the Isu forced the humans to serve as slaves.

The powers of the Pieces of Eden have mystified humanity over millennia, enough for them to conflate them with "magic" throughout history. The Isu civilization's extinction following the Great Catastrophe only reinforced this, as memories of the Isu faded into legends and myths. Since humans lack the technological expertise to reproduce these devices, they have long been the subject of innumerable conflicts between rival humans seeking them for their own ends. In particular, they are a central obsession of the Templar Order, which has devoted much of their resources to searching and seizing these artifacts in their quest for world domination.

Description

ACFT - Pieces of Eden collection

A collection of various Pieces of Eden

Although most classes of Pieces of Eden, such as the Apples and Staves of Eden, were utilized as tools by which humanity could be controlled, others deviated from this purpose. For example, the Swords of Eden are primarily weapons capable of emitting energy blasts, while the Shrouds of Eden are medical in nature, designed for healing even the most mortal of wounds.

The diverse functions of the devices extend further: many are capable of bending the thoughts of one or more individuals to that of the user, projecting illusions, or concealing the user's presence. The Precursor boxes, powered by other Pieces of Eden, can imprint the memories of its users onto others and decode examples of Isu script, like the Voynich manuscript. Other functions are more mundane relative to modern human technology, such as hologram projection or the Crystal Skulls which act as long-distance communication devices, but these nevertheless appeared supernatural to ancient peoples.

Since the end of the Isu civilization, these devices, appearing sporadically in the hands of humans, have acquired a status as legendary relics of phenomenal properties. Greatly eclipsing the technological level of human civilization, even into modern times, the Pieces of Eden bestow tremendous power over society to those who come to possess them. Their employment has therefore had immense impacts on human history; some of the most influential leaders such as Alexander the Great, Genghis Khan, Napoleon Bonaparte, and Mahatma Gandhi were aided by their use of a Piece of Eden.

Recognizing their significance, the Pieces of Eden have been at the forefront of the Templar Order's goals for centuries as they hope that by exploiting the artifacts, they could achieve their vision of a New World Order. The contest for the Pieces of Eden between the Templars and their archenemies, the Assassins, who traditionally seek to safeguard them, has been a hallmark of their millennia long war.

History

Main article: History of the Piece of Eden

Characteristics and attributes

"This... piece of silver cast out Adam and Eve. It turned staves into snakes. Parted and closed the Red Sea. Eris used it to start the Trojan War; and with it, a poor carpenter turned water into wine."
―Al Mualim, speaking to Altaïr about the Apple.[src]-[m]
Phrenology

Bombastus observing a Crystal Skull

Amongst the greatest tools known to man, the Apples of Eden can control the human mind by interacting with a neurotransmitter located deep in the human brain. Other Pieces of Eden are capable of warping reality, creating illusions, ensuring total obedience and healing physical injuries.[1][2]

Both Templars and the Assassins believe that the Pieces of Eden were responsible for many historical tales and miracles, such as the Parting of the Red Sea, the Trojan War, Jesus of Nazareth's miracles, and the Biblical plagues that ravaged Egypt.[3] According to Dr. Álvaro Gramática, all Pieces of Eden are made of an unknown metal resembling gold or silver that Abstergo dubbed "pathorica".[4]

Abilities of a Piece

Some Pieces of Eden were known to interact with and change the passage of time, possibly creating paradoxes. Others were able to "speak" to those who wielded them, as was the case with the Italian Assassins Ezio Auditore with his Apple[5] and both Perotto Calderon and Giovanni Borgia with a Shroud.[2]

When activated, Apples of Eden are capable of extending a pulse of energy that can drive those in the surrounding area to insanity and death. Doing so has a detrimental effect on the physical health of the wielder if they are unskilled in the Apples' use, but a capable user is not as easily afflicted.[6] The Levantine Assassins' Mentor Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad, for example, was able to use one Apple for a limited duration without adverse affects at age 92.[7] Using the Pieces' powers in short bursts can also minimize the negative effects dealt by the artifacts, though to what extent is unknown.[1]

Destruction of a Piece

Following the destruction of Altaïr's Apple during an experiment at the Denver International Airport, the Templars found themselves in need of another artifact with similar properties. To that end, Abstergo kidnapped the American bartender and former Assassin Desmond Miles in order to view the memories of his ancestor Altaïr[8] and ultimately saw a holographic map that Altaïr discovered in 1191 of various Piece locations.[9]

Tungaska Explod v

The Tunguska explosion

Each of the Pieces of Eden contained a great deal of potential energy, and the destruction of one could cause an explosion on the scale of a nuclear blast. One such explosion occurred in 1908, in the region of Tunguska, Russia. The Imperial Sceptre, one of the Staves of Eden, was seemingly destroyed when Nikola Tesla fired at the Tunguska facility with his wireless electric weapon, attempting to strike a blow against the Templars.[1][10][11]

However, the blast failed to totally destroy the Staff and at least one shard remained.[12] The Staff shard still possessed powers of mind control, as demonstrated by Grigori Rasputin. While he was in possession of the shard, he brainwashed Tsar Nicholas II's wife Alexandra Feodorovna as well as several disciples like Khioniya Guseva.[2]

Resistance

"I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING. I KNOW WHAT YOU DID. I SAW HIM. HE HAD A METAL BALL. IT OPENED. THEY WENT CRAZY. SHOOTING. STABBING. TORE EACH OTHER TO PIECES. I KNOW IT WAS YOU PEOPLE. SAW THE LOGO. HEARD THE NAME. I'M GOING TO TELL. ANYONE WHO WILL LISTEN. YOU'LL BE EXPOSED. THEY'LL KNOW THE TRUTH. AND THEN YOU WILL PAY. YOU CRAZY BASTARDS. YOU'LL PAY."
―An unidentified individual's e-mail to Dr. Warren Vidic.[src]-[m]
Mentor's wake 13

Altaïr deactivating an Apple

Although the Isu created humanity to be susceptible to the Pieces of Eden, eventual cross-breeding between them and their slaves led to the birth of a hybrid species. These new humans possessed some of the natural abilities of their creators and were free of the neurotransmitter necessary for the Pieces of Eden to control them. The first two known hybrids were Adam and Eve, who later stole one of the Apples of Eden and instigated the Human-Isu War.[1]

Members of their lineage inherited these natural abilities and immunity to the Pieces, although the Pieces' ability to physically manipulate them remained.[10] These traits were passed down through generations.[1] By the early 21st century, the Templars were aware that some humans were immune to the Pieces' mind control. On at least one occasion, Dr. Warren Vidic received an email from one such individual who had witnessed the mishap in Denver and threatened to expose what they had seen when an Apple was used on others.[13]

Trivia

  • During his battle with Rodrigo Borgia in the Sistine Chapel, Ezio created copies of himself, much like Al Mualim did against Altaïr. If Ezio's robes are customized, or if the Armor of Altaïr is worn, his copies appeared with different sets of armor and colors. If he was not customized, each copy would be perfectly identical to the real Ezio, besides his weapon.
  • Both the Codex map and the map projection show that there were only fifty Pieces of Eden at that time, though Subject 16 said the Shroud was Piece of Eden 66. In the French and German version of Assassin's Creed II, the Shroud was referred to as number 36, not 66. This however, was an oversight.
  • The Chalice was initially thought to be a Piece of Eden; however, besides the Shroud, all other artifacts linked to Jesus were confirmed to be merely literary tools.[10]
