Since the dawn of time, two factions have been fighting an endless battle. On one side, the Assassins who walk in the darkness to defend justice. On the other, the Templars who will stop at nothing to establish their authority. In the 12th century, Altaïr, a seasoned Assassin, protected King Richard I of England from the plot hatched by the Templars. In the process, he had to kill his mentor, the deceitful Al Mualim, while hiding the 28 fragments of Eden. Three centuries later, Ezio Auditore finds the memories of Altaïr, which lead him to the forgotten temples of "those who were there before".

In the basement of the Vatican, he meets Minerva, an AI who reveals that the world is in danger. As he slowly recovers from his romance with the Templar Maria Thorpe and his fight against Rodrigo Borgia (Pope Alexander VI), he senses that the fight is far from over. And that's an understatement... After him, other Assassins such as the Native American half-breed Ratonhnhaké:ton (Connor), the privateer Edward Kenway or the twins Evie and Jacob Frye will fight to keep Man free. So does this battle of good versus evil have no end?

Why Give a Geek Gift From the Official Assassin's Creed License?

When Ubisoft unveiled the first Assassin's Creed in 2007, geeks were immediately charmed. Never has an RPG so well mixed infiltration, open world and time passages. Indeed, from Assassin's Creed I to Assassin's Creed III, the player only occasionally plays one of these shadowy killers. Initially, he is in the shoes of Desmond Miles, a bartender who is captured by members of a malevolent organization called Abstergo. A descendant of the Assassins Altaïr, Ezio and Connor, his genetic memory allows him to revisit their lives through a machine called the Animus.

Just like his illustrious ancestors, Desmond will have to show courage, even if it means losing his life... This is one of the great reasons for the success of Assassin's Creed. The main protagonists, be they Assassins or Templars, are not all black or white. They are plagued by moral dilemmas and try to find their way. But here's the thing... Sometimes, as in the leap of faith, they have no choice but to close their eyes and let themselves fall. A situation all too reminiscent of events experienced on a daily basis by otaku and noobs.

What Assassin's Creed Merchandise to Give to a Geek?

Show your allegiance to the Assassins by sporting a keychain stamped with the Crest, the organization's logo. In case you're not afraid of Templar lightning, go the extra mile with an Assassin's creed messenger bag or backpack.
