How Long Did Each Assassin Live For In Assassin’s Creed

- The protagonists in the Assassin’s Creed game are often linked with a lot of danger, leading a lot of people to think they live relatively short lives. I mean with how much fighting they do and how many templar lives they take, it’s not really much of a shock to think that. However, the reality is actually pretty surprising. So that’s what I want to go over in this video.

Assassin's Creed is an open-world, action-adventure, and stealth game franchise published by Ubisoft and developed mainly by its studio Ubisoft Montreal using the game engine Anvil and its more advanced derivatives. Created by Patrice Désilets, Jade Raymond, and Corey May, the Assassin's Creed video game series depicts a fictional millennia-old struggle between the Order of Assassins, who fight for peace and free will, and the Knights Templar, who desire peace through order and control. The series features historical fiction, science fiction, and fictional characters intertwined with real-world historical events and historical figures. In most games, players control a historical Assassin while also playing as an Assassin Initiate or someone caught in the Assassin-Templar conflict in the present-day framing story. Considered a spiritual successor to the Prince of Persia series, Assassin's Creed took inspiration from the novel Alamut by the Slovenian writer Vladimir Bartol, based on the historical Hashashin sect of the medieval Middle East.

edward fell off so hard he went from being able to clear a whole ship at 30 to losing to 2 bandits in his early 40s
Its just sad for me he is the goated character of ac but....
He said he was betrayed by a close friend, in his defense he probably didn’t even see it coming. Plus he was just living peacefully, he didn’t think anyone would be out to get him.
Didn’t they attack him in his sleep
@@pardy0974yeah Birch sent Templars to kill Edward and made it look like a late night home robbery. Haytham killed one of them if I recall correctly
@@user-gs9iu8mm7flove that mission in Syndicate (iirc) where you have to go through Edward’s mansion. Cool to just have another little piece of Edward lore in the series even though he wasn’t alive.
Fun fact Shao Jun was, in fact, mentioned in Assassin's Creed 3 while Achilles was training connor. Achilles mentions that Shao Jun created the rope dart.
Kassandra was born in 458 BC, and the canon time for the ending of Odyssey is 422 BC. (the whole game story stretches for several years, including the main plot, the Atlantis stuff, Cult of Kosmos hunt and the Legacy of the First Blade DLC.)
So I'd safely say she was 36 years old when she got the staff, and biologically she was "locked" in a 36 years old body for over 2400 years.
Altair dying at such an old age is actually impressive considering the period in which he was around had way less cures for diseases and whatnot let alone he was an assassin constantly getting into trouble, also he was stabbed by Al Mualim on top of that.
Well to be fair, he spent all of those years in solitude alone just pondering the apple of Eden, he wasn't exactly doing assassin stuff.
Altair lived the coolest life in my opinion. sure guy's life was miserable, he suffered from such a young age, lost so many of his loved ones. But he also shaped the Brotherhood, created an benchmark for future generations. And when he thought he has done everything, he simply died in a locked chamber. He died by his own choice rather than being killed or backstabbed by someone else (like other characters in the series) how cool is that
@@v-trigger6137not cool, it's greatest and sacrificed
@@James_Randalstill lived a long life,im sure they all had times to relax and be happy
@@lucasdiazjr5679 well Edward didn't live a long life, he was murdered in his 40's.
Honestly Arno not killing Shay (father's killer) or even trying to find out, always seemed like a miss opportunity to me. it could've turned into a great dynamic, him finding out Shay years latter. Like there is like enough space in Arno's lore on which you can even make another game.. same with Conner Kenway. but i guess its another great story point that Ubisoft completely abandoned
Not only that but instead of searching for his dad's killer he searches for someone else completely , Elise
@@Kinglon-ls1sn exactly. him driven by Elise's father rather than avenging his own father didn't made sense to me. especially when he gets know later that his father was a assassin as well
@@v-trigger6137 you can say that this game story is written bad cause it makes no sense, bro should've avenge his dad or at least to do something with him, him later realizing that his dad was an assassin was completely useless to arno cause he didn't even show that he care
@@v-trigger6137i mean you have to consider that he was a child he only had 8 years of being raised with his own father before he died and got a new family of which he grew to love as his own i mean facts is he knew a lot more about his adopted father and had more time with them (idk how many of you guys honestly think arno should've cared enough about his father's death that he should hunt down the man who killed him and return the favor instead of idk focusing on the love of his life and the fact that his adopted father who literally raised him as his own son was recently murdered and he was framed for it) like why would he care at all about his real father's killer even when he learned that he was an assassin i don't see how that should make him obligated to care about avenging his actual father because he joined the creed to seek revenge for his adopted father "oh because he's not blood related" sounds really ignorant imo but that's just my 2 cents
Arno's baffling story is why there's been a theory for years that Unity was originally concepted as Connor's sequel.
Nothing has come of this theory to confirm or deny it, but the fact Connor, Shay, and Arno, all overlap in locations and characters they meet, but have all never met each other is just extremely bad writing. Even if Unity was always going to be Arno's story, the fact Connor isn't there to avenge the fallen American Brotherhood with Arno's help is just a huge missed opportunity.
Hell, don't even need it to be Connor. Even Aveline appearing in Paris _sent_ by Connor would have been interesting. Lame of course since Connor is cooler, but certainly interesting.
Edward did not deserve that bro🤦🏾♂️
I really wish we had a more in depth look into the later years of Edward's life
Same
I believe there wes a novel which explained in a bit detailed what happened to his later life and how Haythem was converted to Templar and how his daughter sold to slaves
@@v-trigger6137Haytham's journal, perhaps?
@@v-trigger6137 yeah it's Assassin's Creed Forsaken
Arno likely lived until at least 1822, if we consider Paris Stories as canon. Arno helped Jean-François Champollion retrieve rubbings of the Rosetta Stone, which he then successfully translated in September 1822. Arno lived to at least 53 years old.
Arno died of old age
great to see you included lore from the other entries than the main games!
Bruh you forgot about Desmond and Layla, i mean they technically count as assassins and protagonists since we play as them in multiple games, great video nonetheless
You can visit the cave Layla sets base in, where Bayek and Aya’s mummies are found, in the Animus and Bayek will note its significance for them. It’s east of Siwa.
The problem with not counting Kassandra and Eivor as Assassins is that it completely unravels the story that was established in the games before Origins. Ezio was told of the most influential members of the Assassin Brotherhood by his uncle when he entered the Sanctuary under the Villa Auditore.
Kasandra probably knocked down any statues of herself or made deals with people to not represent her or she would kill them. In her line of work reconization is a horrible thing. People start hunting her for what she got, means she has to stop doing her job and go kill a shit ton of people to make them stop talking about her.
Evior and basim on the other hand are a different story as both were very influential. Atleast with evior if hathem doesn’t tell the brotherhood nobody would know he was even trained.
Basim on the other hand was extremely well known and unlike everyone else we haven’t actually got to play let alone see his biggest achievements besides merage and Valhalla. the dude was huge during the fall of the kalifet and the brother revolution (set up to the fall of the golden age of the Muslims) he prity much controlled the whole southern Mediterranean till he dipped off to England. Then again he was also a deserter (technically) and a sage so they probably didn’t want to go talking about him.
Also etzios family room doesn’t hold everyone just people who did big time kills. None of those above did big time kills. For their country yes. For the world no. Most protagonists don’t get that achievement. Hell the side characters assassins have more big name kills to their name then our mains. Only real exception is etzio (technically didn’t get Borgia wich would have been his big name) and altier (who also doesn’t get his as Tula did) plus aya who dos and we do get to play as during it but she’s a side character.
It kinda makes sense though, Eivor isn't an assassin , he's an ally of theirs who helped each other when needed . Kassandra existed even before Assassins were formally made , She had interactions with them(as she had a hidden blade in valhalla) but never outright joined them because she was the one who is to keep "The Balance" between The assassins and templars .
The thing is Kassandra and eivor aren't assassin's especially Kassandra she's more a proto assassin
In Valhalla Bayeks letter to aya is able to be read and he says the codex is spread around the empire of Augustus the roman empire is usually date to 27 Bc mark Antony died 30 bc so so we can assume he lived at the very least to 27 - 30 bc making him at the very least 55.
My head-canon is that Shay did die at 83, at the Norwegian west coast. His killer was Swedish assassin Lovisa, a descendant of the Gylling family who were active during the time of the Swedish Empire. Lovisa also met Arno while supervising Gustav III in France.
Again, that's what I want to believe happened.
Why would Shay be in Norway???
@@NinjaCat1490 I haven't thought much about it, but I would like to think he would spend his later years peacefully in Norway and even be buried their. Or he had some business with nordic Templars.
Of course it was a swedish girl is that a question??🇸🇪🇸🇪
@@ollerosberg4928 no. We need Swedish Assassins
I would rather believe that it was Connor that brought him down.
Maybe they ended each other.
Another awesome video man, the quality of your work is MASSIVE even with the amout of content you put out there, just a curious question.. ¿ Do you have already scheduled, months ahead, the next uploads? if so, until what month you have covered? I'm curious, I have a yt channel of 10ksubs and I upload videos once a week, I have covered the idea for week video until June 2024, you are one of my inspirations to keep growing so im really curious about your workflow. Cheers mate, congratulations on the succes!!!
Hi there, I appreciate those kind words. That means a lot! Honestly, I do not have a schedule or any videos planned. I go with the flow which is not good but I don't really have any ideas. When I upload a video. I'd often think of the next one a day later and then work on it instantly. It's great that you've planned far ahead. I wish I could do that.
I never really look at supplementary material outside the games, so this is helpful. I never knew when Aveline died.
The order 66 meme is pretty fitting in the Adéwalé section seeing as how rogue is basically assassins creed’s revenge of the sith.
Another fantastic video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
A note from Reda in Valhalla was written by Bayek to Amunet sometime later in his life. It mentions how Bayek is in his twilight years and also mentions Augustus' Empire, so we can assume Bayek died sometime after Augustus became Roman Emperor in 27 BC.
I wish Ubisoft would tell us what happened to Edward’s step daughter. Talk about a plot hole right there.
The novels Forsaken and Surprisingly the Unity novel delve deeper into Jennifer's story. A genuinely depressing twist they went with it. If you have the time, I'd recommend looking into these.
Step-Daughter? Isnt Jenny Edward and Caroline's legitimate Daughter?
No shes not his stepdaughter, you might be confused with her being half sister to Haytham as they offcoarse have diffrent mothers.
Yeah like the other guy said, the Unity novel covers Jennifer near the end of her life. Elise runs off to London at one point and she meets Jennifer at the Kenway Manor.
Jennifer has grown old and bitter about the Assassin and Templar conflict, being a staunchly neutral party who wishes she was simply a non-party but Assassins and Templars keep bothering her because of her father's and brother's relationship to her. She laments even that her brother was killed by his own son because of the conflict.
So what happened to her? She lived on. She didn't want to be part of the story but she has to be, because of her family.
It's somewhat meta that she just wants to be left out of the story, but because of her family, templars, assassins, _and fans of the series_ keep "bothering her" and bringing her back into focus lol. I think the point is that she's not a character, she's a prop people keep pretending is a character.
2:53 Agreed. Espicially if you where around for those 2 years. Its not quite the same playing them back to back... but beginning in 2009, and ending in 2011, was quite the ride.
Hell yeah new Hidden One video
Absolutely goated video you said you were in college do you think if you became big would you go full time?
Great video
Don't forget the entry from the taken down Ubisoft website, "Initiates," that mentions Eseosa, the grandson of Adewale, going to receive training from Connor at the Davenport Homestead around the year 1804. This is the true last documented mention and hearing of Connor, which places him at roughly 48 years old. Also, "the sad and lonely death of Ratonhnhaké:ton" were all lies and propaganda from Abstergo to smear his legacy and reputation.
👏👏 Beautiful absolutely
Keep video ❤
I think the reason why edward died so young is because he is an afterthought character. After making ac3, somehow ubisoft thought that the idea of a pirate assassin would be fun so they make him playable. Since edward's fate is already sealed in ac3, I would say If edward was "created" before connor, he would have lived longer.
I was replaying through brotherhood and I got curious about what the multiplayer looked like, as I had never played it. There was nobody playing obviously but I noticed some characters you can play as have unique hidden blades. There’s one guy who has a sword of scissor hidden blade and then another who wears hers a similar way that Eivor does. I saw your every hidden blade video and it seems those were left out. Could be a cool sequel to it, maybe more multilayer characters have unique hidden blades?
Wait, brotherhood has multi-player? I thought only unity had that.
@@James_Randal Brotherhood, Revelations, III and Black Flag all had multiplayer, you would try to mask yourself as an NPC and try to assassinate your target in a selected area if i remember correctly, that shit was really fun not gonna lie lol
Ik it’s said Connor was 4 or 5 when we first play as him but there’s physically no way for me and most others seem to think he’s more along the age of 8-10 years old. Then when Connor meets Achilles it’s said he’s 13 there’s no way he’s 13 goin to meet Achilles 1 connors way too tall to be 13 no thirteen year old is already the size of a full grown man 2 connors voice his voice at the time of when he was “13” he has the voice of a 19 or 20 year old no way a 13 year old would be soundin like a grown ass man. 3 and the reason Connor wasn’t a preteen when he met Achilles Connors clan mother wouldn’t let a 13 year old to up and leave their clan or tribe. And the 4th and final reason connors not 13 is if Connor was 13 Achilles wouldve never trained Connor no one would train a child to be a killer or an assassin it’s more likely that if Connor was 16 or 17 he’d train him then takes like a year or 2 for Connor to get his robes and starts takin down the templars makin Connor around the age of 29-30 when he assonates his father Haytham and Charles lee . Ik this comment is long af but here’s my opinion on the mystery of connors actual age in ac3 hell I could be wrong idk but also ubi could’ve made a few mistakes when writin the timeline of Connors story either way I enjoyed ac3 I wish I still had it to this day but I don’t but fortunately 4 days ago I bought the ezio trilogy and I’m able to finally play ac 2 for the first time it’s so weird playin an ole school ac game for at least 7 years I’ve played all except syndicate that’s my next goal but idk if it’s one xb1 or not and I haven’t seen it in any stores or anywhere
13 years old can be size of full grown men, by then I was as tall as my father
I don't know, by the time i was 13 I was the height of the average male, and my voice was pretty deep, not deep deep, but deep, so I'd say it's certainly possible, and you can clearly tell his genetics make him the beast of a man he is, so I'd say it's fully possible he was like a grown man by 13.
@@James_Randal my guy no disrespect your 82 years old you like a heartbreaker with cheese and a side of German but yea I’m not sayin it’s not possible to look like an adult buy 13 cause I did I’m just sayin that Connor wasn’t as young as we think he is
You'll be surprised how tall an 13 year can get
Amazing video 🫡
With Connor we do know that he was referred as old Connor in either the epilogue of rogue or unity I don't remember which
Yeah thinking about which age is old enough to be ok to pass away is pretty scary 😅 one thing you should not forget is that the average life expectancy increased heavily over the last centuries and it depended on the place you lived in. In the 16th century the average life expectancy was 32 years approximately while it is at 72 years across the globe.
Kassandra’s age should be considered by her biological and experienced ages. Biological she hit a stasis upon receiving the staff, experienced is when she spent centuries functionally as an immortal. Without checking dates I’d say she was in her mid to late twenties when receiving the staff, locking her into that age physically,
Rather than the act of passing on the staff inherently being fatal, it locks the body into the physical state including preventing ageing and protecting from radiation. So like a Shroud of Eden. Pythagoras and Kassandra were a long time past their natural life spans, so passing it on did mean death and Layla lost its protection against radiation in the Yggdrasil facility, where it restores Basim’s body to living condition.
Connor and Shao Jun from Chronicles are character i felt needed more games following their life.
Good video but as expected there are some dates that dont line up snd you forgot Layla and Desmond.
I have played most of assassin Creed games, but my favourite is Valhalla ur then again it me I just love the open map concept where I can roam around and lvl up where I please
I feel like some died around 60 because considering the time of each period, dying at 60-70 seemed pretty common, cause of the time period. Had no cures for diseases, medicine for wounds/infections... So they prob took some realism with the games as well. But thats just an idea/opinion
In assassin's Creed Valhalla you actually meet Kassandra
im not even 1 minute in the vid but i would think that this is a good idea
Conner is the best character, fades into legend, myth, like Jeremiah Johnson
Actually i think ezio's life was the least tragic cause he got revenge on everyone that had to do with his family's killing
Another one of Edward's adventures began I believe in 1725 in Macau, as described in AC: The Forgotten Temple.
I wish they had given Raton and Arno an interaction with each other considering they were both main-line assassins who lived during the same time.
You forgot Desmond who lived only 25 years. :O
8:40 I believe there is a canon death in comic-book form for Shay. Something about bis son
finnaly mentioned Liberation thank you
Edward doed in his 49a whoch is sad but if you remeber he promised caroline he would only be a privateer for 2 years so he did his best for 2 years clearing a legendary ship like it were nothing but when he retired he left that life behind him and as a result ended up killing him
Also its key to remeber AC 4 and rogers/ The Seige was constantly saying a short life and merry one which is literally the purates code so id understand how edward had a fitting death short but full of adventure
19:16
Bro I hollered🤣🤣
I love your video your editing is creative.
Ah yes, it's my birthday tomorrow, can bring the birthday wish to me?? Thanks ❤️✨
Happy Birthday to you!!
What about Lydia Frye which is Jacod's granddaughter and Evie's grandniece? I swear people forget about her.
Edward Kenway dying so early and die to 2 bandits is a crime to his legendary character.
Conor has been reported in mission 1804 ad in Haiti
what a good sir!
He forgot about Darci in Watch Dogs: Legion
Remember, Kasandra could appear in any assassin's creed game, she defiantly went out and lived life as she is in a modern suit when she dies
I hear shay cormac died in 1857 being the third longest living character in assassins creed. Behind Basim and Kassandra.
Eivor isnt a fan favorite?! Hes the most badass imo
Do you stream
Nope. Should I?
@@TheHiddenOne690 yes I would love to watch and talk to you live
@@TheHiddenOne690yes
I had no problem with Kassandra and her age.
And the dude who killed Edward took hytham under his wing and turned him into to a Templar
the thing is, if shay lived that long in canon, that might indicate that he killed Connor? He is heavily involved in the American Templar and Haytham alike and tends to return to America after killing Arno's dad.
Nope,after killing arno father shay not coming back,and still search for others relic.
I think EIVOR'S name sounds better if you create male version.
If they had different names for male and female version of character like they had for odyssey
It would sound better
In my opinion
Eivor is a gender neutral name, meaning good luck, from of course Norse origin.
I'm confused what about Desmond Miles. I mean yeah I get how he died, but he's still an assassin non the less. Right??
we need a basim modern day dlc
Connor is still alive to this day death hasnt earned him yet
guys what AC is haytham in?
You forgot Desmond Miles.
I am playing Assassins Creed Rouge, and they mential Conner's death so that might help estimate his death day
Different connor bro 😂,its achilles son.
@@han6528 Thanks, I forgot Achilles named AC3 Conner after his dead son
I hope they make a game where Edward fakes his death and actually dies a lot older - because he's my favourite character and there's no way he could have died to two guys
That would break almost every single part of the lore, unfortunately. We just gotta stay strong and not bawl our eyes out every time we hear parting glass
@@LarryTheTugaGamer1511 fair enough, I was hoping I could find a loophole but I don't know much lore
If you want more Edward content, there's a webtoon being released right now, called Forgotten Temple, where Edward is the protagonist
@@esdrasfilipe431 Really? I had no idea
You forgot Desmond and Layla.
The worst part was that they made Kassandra's death meaningless...
I love assassin’s creed valhalla
I've played some of it... I keep getting distracted by "secondary" tasks
Hey i share a birthday with the frye twins
You forgot Desmond
Altair lived that long because of the Apple
Totally fine with Kassandra being so old. I mean it's established that in universe Jess was just a guy who had a Piece of Eden and one of his miracles is literally bringing a man back from the dead. Extended Life is really easy to accept in the face of that
the edward one is so disrespectful, like who the fuck believes he lost to two bandits?!?!?!?!
I thought basim died and Loki took over his body so is it Loki who is still alive in 2024?
its said arno married a british master assassin in the 1800s
They need to finish the story of CONNOR, SHAY, N ARNO
Shay gonna hunt down Conner n Arno and connor hunt down shay
Hopefully
You forgot aguilar
people theorize arno lived till his 90's
why'd you only use the female versions? are they the cannon versions?
Yep, Females are the canonical genders in odyssey and valhalla.
I like Valhalla but not the assassins creed version
Personally I think dying in your 60s is still too young 🥺
Where is Alexios?
I get that all of this is opinionated and subjective and I respect everyone's opinion. I just don't understand the disrespect Valhalla gets from the majority of the AC fanbase. I understand Eivor is not an assassin, but in my opinion, Valhalla is the best game in the franchise. The fact that u get to play as Odin and u witness the stories of Loki, freiya, and a lot of other members of Norse mythology is awesome. I also think that playing with the Male version of Eivor makes things a lot more realistic too.
Is it just me who really likes Valhalla? But I wouldn’t consider myself an AC fanatic aha
Cant believe we never got to see shay die....couldnt stand him. i was really hoping we'd get to see connor and arno toy with him like 2 cats cornering a mouse.
I might be the only person to like ac Valhalla also eivor will always be male to me rather than female
What i love is playing AC Valhalla but and I like the male version of the game
Alexlios
No desmond and evie granddaughter
I AM EARLY HOLY SHIT!
how am i this early to a video
Wait is Eivor canonically female?
Connor died at 1840
I would say evior is more a male and ngl i really want an templar game
Dang i’m early
Mummies doesn’t mean u died of natural cusses btw
Eivor’s male version is actually canon not the female version
Incorrect
@@TheHiddenOne690 Ubisoft literally promotes the male version more than the female version plus on the download screen for Valhalla we only see make eivor on epic, steam, and Ubisoft store.
the reason i said it's incorrect is because ubisoft themselves said both are canon, and not one is. But tbh i'm more inclined to say that's the female is canon.
The proof is a letter to Eivor stating her last name as Varinsdottir, even when your playin as male eivor. In Norse tradition, children typically got a last name from their father's name, like Varin, and since Eivor is Varin's daughter, her last name is Varinsdottir. If male Eivor was the official gender, the name would be Varinson.
@@TheHiddenOne690 that’s a misconception since yes but you should have mentioned the male version since it’s more promoted for AC Valhalla
I checked Ubisoft hasn’t confirmed it but they are leaning towards male version for the promotions that’s a misunderstanding of Eivor’s name being the reason female counterpart being canon
@Bigshotchain male version is promoted more, because the executives at Ubisoft make marketing push the male version, because they don't think female characters are marketable and what not. It's the same thing with Odyssey where Kassandra is canon, but all marketing shows Alexios
What you don't have a "That Day Story"? Damn must be nice. I will spare you mine.
