Previous Information
Get all caught up! A little background info! You don't need to know much more than this for the factions [majorly summed up Acy version here man xDD] : The Assassins and Templars have been enemies for as long as man can remember. The Templars are seeking to create a New World Order through using these artifacts known as the Pieces of Eden. If the Templars succeed in collecting these pieces they can control and technically enslave humanity. Basically humanity will lose it's collective free will and bend to the will of those in control. The Templars firmly believe that if we are left to continue left to our own devices that nothing good will come of it. TL;DR? Templars are trying to create a 'perfect world'. The Assassins oppose these ideals, believing the Pieces of Eden are too powerful for anyone to handle. They are trying to collect the pieces to keep them out of the hands of the wrong people [the templars]. The Assassins believe all people should be free - to make their own choices. That we shouldn't listen to the voice of a select few people and be their puppets. This is why they fight. So humanity can make their choices, however right or wrong they might be. TL;DR? Assassins believe humanity should shape its own world.There are MANY similarities between the two groups. Their ultimate goals are what separate them. To sum it up from the AC Wiki: "The Templar world view was based upon an inherently pessimistic view of humanity. As opposed to the Assassins, who believed that free will was an inherent quality and right of all humankind, and should be preserved regardless of the cost, Templars insist that freedom causes chaos and upheaval, and ultimately threatens the fabric of civilization itself. " "The Assassin Order pursued many goals throughout its incredibly long existence, but its main and highest objective was in the pursuit of total freedom of all people. This objective had led the Assassins to oppose tyrants and oppressors alike, as well as engage in rabblerousing efforts, in the aim of motivating the people towards change. It has also led the Assassins to become sworn enemies of the Templar Order, who prized purpose and order above the acquisition of freedom." Basically if you want to know more you can ask Seren, Sin or myself. Or look it up in the Assassin's Creed Wiki. I am sure I might have miswrote some details and may have a slighhhht biased as to which side I prefer. But well~ ;] Annnd some more info! More information on the faction RP: PLEASE NOTE THIS IS ALL A WIP. AS WE COLLECTIVELY PLOT AND MOVE ALONG WITH BRINGING THE FACTIONS IN THIS MIGHT AND WILL CHANGEThe Assassin and Templar Orders will be broken down into sections depending on the games. Nominated Assassins/Templars become 'leaders' who will help assign missions and gather the information collectively for their side. They can nominate one or two apperitances to help them with this. Other members of the Order can choose which Brotherhood to follow specifically or choose to listen to all. Things are kinda run this way to make it work for the Pockettu setting where all of the notable assassins are alive at the same time xDD The Assassin Order currently is as followed: Mentor / Master Assassian - Altair (kinda runs the whole show, passes orders down through the brotherhood leaders) ---------- Altair's Assistant is Yet to be Chosen Levantine Brotherhood Leader - Malik (also Altair's second in command) --------- Malik's Assistant is Yet to be Chosen Italian Brotherhood Leader / Mentor / Master Assassin - Ezio --------- Ezio's Assistant is Yet to be Chosen Ottoman Brotherhood Leader - Yusuf --------- Yusuf's Assistant is Yet to be Chosen North American Brotherhood Leader - Connor [possible Aveline too if her owner shows up and would like to participate =w= . Connor gets the North and Aveline the South of the US. xDD] ---------- Connor's Assistant is Yet to be Chosen The Templar Order is as followed: Grand Master - Haytham --------- Haytham's Assistant is Yet to be Chosen ono More templars are needed. Someone get Ceasre or someone please D8 I might allow some of the multiplayer templars to be some leaders so we at least have something to counter the assassins with xDD

Join the Assassins!
Each Assassin leader is looking for assassins to take under their wing. Your assassin can choose to either follow a specific leader or stretch themselves thin and follow the Order as a whole.
An Assassin leader can choose up to two assassins to take directly under their command as assistants. This is up to the Assassin leader. They can also choose to take no assistants if they so desire.
Below are each Assassin leader and their recruiting regiment. Interested in joining one of their causes? Copy the code given and fill out the forum. If accepted - they'll let you know!
  Levantine Brotherhood - Altair Ibn-LaAhad and Malik Al-SayfAltair's Assistants: Malik Al-Sayf, Pending
Malik's Assistants: Stille Actaeonis, PendingAltair is the Mentor for all Assassins. Chosen by Altair, Malik is second in command. Together the two run the Levantine Brotherhood. Your Assassin can choose to follow either Altair or Malik. Please use the proper code depending on who they choose to follow! Altair's Recruitment- Humility: Humility is a lesson I almost died learning. I have given up too much to the sin of pride, and my closest friends have paid in kind for my own arrogance. Live humbly and be considerate of yourself and of others.
- Honor: Respect yourself and those around you. Do not give empty promises and complete the task that it is given to you as a test of your own honor.
- Skill: As a Grandmaster of the Assassin's, only those of the highest skill and value can be directly under my watch. We are the leaders of this organization and that should reflect inside and outside of battle.
- Virtue: The creed was built on a list of virtues that we must uphold in our own ways of being. Do not judge or condemn easily and carry yourself to a higher standard that garners respect from others. Be righteous and account for every action.
- Open Heart, Open Mind: Our line of work requires a certain readiness for the unexpected. We live lives full of loss, sadness, anger, pain in great deal. But there is still opportunity to love, to endure, to enjoy life. Be open to all of it, and what could possibly be beyond our own human existence.
Please copy and paste this question below answering it along with the following information --
Your assassin's name, their cert's image, and the answer to the question:
Nothing is true, Everything is Permitted. Once you have gained this true knowledge, how will you serve me and the cause of our brothers?Malik's Recruitment- Loyalty: The Creed must always be followed. Don't compromise the Brotherhood through your careless actions.
- Cooperative: We are brethren. We should strive to work together as a team to follow the orders given. Do not be a hero, novice.
- Follow Orders: Get the job accomplished while still following the tenets of the creed.
- Land Surveying: As you know I am in charge of constantly mapping out the locations we travel. Since I cannot leave here often you are to be my eyes out in the cities. Report back to me any changes so I may update the maps.
- Maturity: I am not looking to babysit anyone. I have enough problems with a certain Assassin as it is.
Please copy and paste this question below answering it along with the following information --
Your assassin's name, their cert's image, and the answer to the question:
Ah, there you are novice. Plain and simple - why should I waste my time on you?

Ezio's Recruitment: - Loyalty: Whether it is the Creed, your family, or your country, do not falter in your loyalty and in your defense of what you hold dear.
- Cooperative: Working together with your fellow assassins is key when going on missions. There is no honor in a single man dying from taking needless risk.
- Nimble and Strong: Roma is full of tall buildings as well as cathedrals, we need those who have the ability to reach the top or weave through rafters and stay hidden. Those who are clumsy will not be accepted into the creed.
- Swimming: Roma and other areas are built around sewers and canals. We do not need those who can not swim and who can not hold their breath beneath the water.
- Understanding: Sometimes the truth is hidden behind many walls of lies or codes, you must be able to seek out the meaning behind words as well as following clues left by other assassins. Just as you must find what drives your fellow countrymen and women.
Please copy and paste this question below answering it along with the following information --
Your assassin's name, their cert's image, and the answer to the question:
Nulla è reale, tutto è lecito. Why do you wish to join the Creed?  Ottoman Brotherhood - Yusuf TazimYusuf's Assistants: Pending, PendingYusuf is the leader of the Ottoman Brotherhood. He is an expert craftsman when it comes to bombs. The Ottoman Brotherhood has a good alliance with the Italian Brotherhood. Yusuf's Recruitment- Loyalty and Cooperation: Follow the Creed. It can be hard at times, but remember, it is for the good of the order and the safety of everyone that we do so. We strive to work together here! Any issues with another assassin in our brotherhood must always be resolved quickly and in a positive manner, or everyone's well-being could be at risk.
- Hard work: The Templars tend to be very active in our area. You must have the stamina and energy to deal with constant threats, and be able to keep on the move if need be.
- Look out below: Much of our transportation around our area is done via roofs and zip lines using hook blades. I would hope if you apply you are not afraid of heights, or a little speed!
- Nerves of steel: We specialize in bombs; if you are nervous around things that go BOOM, you probably don't want to join us.
- Healthy humor: While we expect all of our brothers to be serious when it comes to their missions, we also know that a sense of humor is a good thing to have, especially when dealing with tense situations. We do not frown upon anyone who likes to have a little fun in their life, as long as it does not interfere with our tenets and goals.

- One with Nature: The ability to climb trees, track animals and people, among other things all through the lay of the land. Inability to do so will cause complications for you.
- Loyalty: To your goals. Although our paths may differ I do not wish for you to hide your reasons for joining. Together, may we see an end to the injustices that this nation has brought upon us.

Join the Templars!
Each Templar leader is looking for templars to take under their wing. Your templar can choose to either follow a specific leader or stretch themselves thin and follow the Order as a whole.
A Templar leader can choose up to two templars to take directly under their command as assistants. This is up to the Templar leader. They can also choose to take no assistants if they so desire.
Below are each Templar leader and their recruiting regiment. Interested in joining one of their causes? Copy the code given and fill out the forum. If accepted - they'll let you know!
 American Order - Haytham KenwayHaytham's Assistants: Pending, PendingHaytham is the Grand Master of the American Order. He is the son of Edward Kenway and the father of Connor Kenway. Haytham's Recruitment: - Steadfastness: Our purpose is about order and in order we must conduct ourselves as a constant force. If you so chose to waver in your loyalty, death is your only punishment.
- Cruelty: Mercy should not be shown to your enemies, for who are you to assume they will give the same to you? Never let emotions cloud your judgement, and exert force when necessary. There is no time to waste when it comes to obtaining goals.
- Tracking: The American Frontier is a harsh and barbaric environment. You must be able to survive and thrive in these conditions. The ability to track and investigate is absolutely necessary. I don't need you dying somewhere in the wilderness due to a tragic but stupid bear mauling incident.
- Organization: Be organized about your work and do not idle. I've already had enough idlers in my ranks. Always be ready to work and always have information ready when I need it.
- Influential: Often times our work deals with influence, and as such, we might have to convince people in powerful places to work for us or give us what we need. Whether it be convincing through he barrel of a gun or through sharp words, you have to decide on the situation. Words are powerful weapons. Do not forget that.
Please copy and paste this question below answering it along with the following information --
Your templar's name, their cert's image, and the answer to the question:
Now then, it seems all of that is out of the way. Tell me, why is it that you wish to join the Templar order?
 Italian Order - Ceasare BorgiaCesare's Assistants: Pending, PendingCesare is the Italian Templar Grand Master. Cesare's Recruitment: Cruel- Any that decide to join with Cesare should be ready to do some really dastardly things. Cesare is not a good man, so a moderate Templar would most likely find his approach to be far to the extreme.
Willing to bend the rules- More often then not, Cesare can be expected to put his own desires ahead of that of the Templar order. He desires power and he wants those that are assisting him to not bat a lash about it.
Effective Team Effort- The Templars must be willing to work with the others of their ilk and able to get the job done. Cesare does not accept failure of any kind, no matter how good the reason for it may be. (He may not be able to kill a Pockettu, but he can make sure they wish they were dead)
Skilled in Combat- His order is focused on all out war in Cesare's quest to obtain power and the Pieces of Eden. He will only allow the finest of fighters to serve under him.
Obedience- This perhaps is the most important. Traitors will be punished beyond their worst imaginings.
Please copy and paste this question below answering it along with the following information --
Your templar's name, their cert's image, and the answer to the question:
Why do you wish to serve the Templars? What use does Borgia have for the likes of you?Other templars that are ordered but not finished just yet: * Woodes Rogers

I'm opening this thread now:
Please remember to post the QUESTION you're answering so we know which Assassin/Templar it belongs to. <3
* This is for already made assassin and templars. This is not for new recruits [meaning line art swaps]. If your Pockettu is not an assassin or a templar already then please wait for a recruitment session. ^^
* If there is no question / information for the templar or assassin your Pockettu wishes to follow wait until information is given. Some people haven't gotten back to us yet but will do so shortly 8'3

Rhonda -  Why do you seek my guidance? What is it do you think I can teach you?I seek your guidance because I believe that out of all the leaders, you seem to be more capable of putting my skills to good use. I can track animals and people and climb sheer cliff faces, but climbing trees, well... I could use some help with that, I admit. While I personally have not been wronged, I do not like to see injustices committed upon others. Should you accept me into your branch, I shall do my utmost to follow your orders to the letter. Mojag -  The black flag must be raised. How will you assist? And fair warning to ya lad - slackers will be thrown overboard.I am no stranger to hard work or fighting for what I want to keep or protect. Every man makes mistakes in his life, but I will not apologize to anyone for what I've done. I'm not saying I would make certain mistakes again, but I will not apologize for it, nor will I tolerate anyone threatening what is mine.

 Serafina Can you handle the pressure? Tell me why you think you'd work best for the cause in our Ottoman Brotherhood."I'm sure I can handle the pressure but can you take the heat?", Sera chuckled a bit as she crossed her arms, standing a bit smug. "I have no qualms with heights and none can doubt my speed in flight. I live to soar the skies and perch upon the roofs." A flick of her tail and she gave a small smile. "If you will have me under your leadership I will devote my life to seeing our area free of the templar's corruption."

Ah, there you are novice. Plain and simple - why should I waste my time on you? Kamau Skadu  The purple eyed assassin blinks and stands in silence for a moment before crossing his arms over his chest. He speaks his answer with a soft and reserved voice. "It is my intention to provide services to the Brotherhood. I do not desire any of your time, rather it is my time that I wish to offer. I am a man of few words and thoughtful actions. It is my belief that my endeavors to serve the Brotherhood would be more effective under your guidance. I am not one to seek glory, recognition, or even thrills. I merely wish to be effective and further our cause." Thus spoken Kamau bow's his head slightly and falls back into his typical silence.

Stille Actaeonis -  Only follows Malik and has only followed Malik since his arrival.Tacita Beth-azmaveth -  Serves the Assassin Order as a whole rather than just following one branch leader.Kristoph -  Serves the Templar Order as a whole.EDIT:: Added in 11/03/13 - Cahin: The Harlequin -  Why do you wish to serve the Templars? What use does Borgia have for the likes of you?The Borgia have the power and means to hold carnivals wherever they please and for whatever reason. This makes Cahin's line of work much easier, as he uses the guise of the Harlequin to further the Templar's power. EDIT:: Added in 11/05/13 Murtagh -  The black flag must be raised. How will you assist? And fair warning to ya lad - slackers will be thrown overboard.Murtagh was just your average pirate before he joined the order. Following a fellow pirate and being out on the open seas is better suited to him than being stuck on land. He's loyal as any hound, and patient with the more... annoying... crew members, unless he's betrayed. He's not afraid of any hard work, whether it be loading and cleaning the canons, swabbing the deck, you name it, he'll take the task on.

[[She has been accepted into the Northern part of the American brotherhood. Fellow members are her allies as well as those from the Southern part.]]----- To MojagEdward circled around the assassin as he spoke. He had little knowledge of what this certain act committed was. Three guesses and he could probably have figured it out though. Every man eventually falls to some form of temptation and Edward was positive this man was no different. Heck, even he himself was no different. He had dappled in sin a-many-a-times. His response was slow to come, his eyes watching the other like a hawk. He waited before giving a smile and a pat on the shoulder to Mojag. "Welcome aboard lad. We are all men of sin and one day will meet again at the bottom of the drink. But I assure you... ******** us over and you'll be dancing with Davy Jones quicker than you can say nay."
[[Mojag has been accepted! But please keep in mind that Edward will keep a closer eye on him than most. More or less out of curiosity as to what this horrible act committed was.]]

[[Short post is short but we already agreed long before this thread that Stille followed Malik xDDD <333]]To MurtaghEdward leaned closer to get a better look at Murtagh. He faintly recalled seeing this man at Nassau before. He bared the tell-tale signs of a pirate's life, to which made Edward grin. "Welcome aboard lad! I take it you're no stranger to hard work?" He needed more fellow pirates aboard the jackdaw. A few experienced helping hands to help the newbies gain their sea legs would do a world of wonder.
[[Edward has accepted Murtagh aboard the Jackdaw crew. ]]
