Altair Ibn-La'Ahad

Altair Ibn-La'Ahad (1165-1257) was an Syrian Assassin during the Middle ages and from 1191 to his death in 1257 was the Mentor of the Levatine Assassins.

Altair was raised to be an Assassin from birth, he obtained the rank of Master Assassin before his 24th birthday but following his failure to obtain the Apple of Eden from Robert de Sable in 1191. This allowed the Templars to attack Masyaf the headquaters to the Order of Assassins, Altair was then demoted to the rank of novice and was sent on a quest for redemption. Altair is tasked with deaths of nine individuals who unknown to him made up the ranks of the Templar Order in the Holy Land, he then began a quest to change his ways and to liberate the kingdom from the 9 Templars corruption. During Altair's quest for Redemption he learned of a plot far worse than he originally believed.When Altair completed his mission to kill all 9 Templar targets and he cleansed the order from it's treacherous Leader Al Mualim, Altair rose to the rank of Mentor taking the Assassin's into a new more secretive direction.

With the Apple, Altair changed the ways that his Order lived their lives by writing the details in his codex for later generations to read. Altair had a vision that the Assassin Order was for the Assassins to live among the people and to set up Assassin Guilds during his time as Mentor. During his later Adventures Altair strengthened the Order by stopping the Templars various times and prevented the uprising of Genghis Khan. Altair's name would continue to resonate through out the order in later years and would influence the lives of descendants and other Assassins. Altair's bloodline would go on to contain an inportant figure in the Assassin Order, Desmond Miles.
