The Assassin's Creed games take place in 2012,
featuring Desmond Miles, a bartender who is a descendant of several lines of
prominent Assassins though raised as an Assassin, he fled his nomadic family to
seek out a more common lifestyle. He is initially kidnapped by the
megacorporation Abstergo Industries, the modern day face of the Knights Templar
who are aware of Desmond's lineage. Desmond is forced to use the Animus, a
device that allows him to experience his ancestral memories. Abstergo is
seeking to discover the location of several artifacts, or Pieces of Eden, that
hold great power, to control mankind and alter its fate, bringing humanity into
a single unified group. Desmond also encounters a small team of modern day
Assassins agreeing to work with them, Desmond uses their version of the Animus the
Animus 2.0 to continue to experience the memories of his ancestors to discover
the locations of additional Pieces of Eden so they can be recovered before
Abstergo can do so. While experiencing these memories, some of their abilities
are genetically leaked into Desmond, known as the Bleeding Effect, giving him
some of the Assassin skills of his predecessors at the cost of living with
multiple sets of memories and personalities in his mind.
Within the Animus, Desmond explores the memories
of Assassins Altaïr ibn La'Ahad, an initially disgraced Assassin working to
redeem himself during the Third Crusade, Ezio Auditore da Firenze, an Assassin
in Italy during the late 15th and early 16th centuries of the Renaissance and
of Ratohnhaké:ton, otherwise known as Connor, a half Mohawk, half British
Assassin during the American Revolution. Throughout these events, Desmond
learns of allusions to the prophetic end of the world in 2012 from a former
Animus test subject, Subject 16, as well as from holographic figures of a
species pre dating humanity. Many years ago a massive solar flare nearly wiped
out all life and a second threatens to do the same. With the second solar flare
fast approaching, it is up to Desmond to use the memories of his ancestors to
acquire their knowledge, learn the truth and find the Pieces of Eden to save
humanity.
The games use the concept
of active versus passive moves, with active moves, such as running, climbing
the sides of buildings, or jumping between rooftops, more likely to alert the
attention of nearby guards. When the guards become alerted, the player must
either fight them or break their line of sight and locate a hiding place, such
as a haystack or a well, and wait until the guards' alert is reduced. The
combat system allows for a number of unique weapons, armor, and moves,
including the use of a hidden blade set in a bracer on the Assassin's arm, and
which also can be used to quietly assassinate targets.
