Historical Hero Upgrade: In real life, the Narodnaya Volya were a Russian left-wing terrorist organization. Vladimir Lenin was also given a similar treatment especially if you remember that communist revolution led to the one of the most horrific (if not the most horrific) dictatorships in modern historynote although apparently Assassin's Creed canon has them losing control/influence over the Revolution and being usurped by the Templars. |

Unwitting Pawn |
| | Assassins Creed: Subject Four (Comic Book) / int_733e007a |
comment |
Unwitting Pawn: The Russian Brotherhood of Assassins. They are cooperating closely with "Narodnaya Volya" (or form this institution themselves). They were also determined to assassinate Alexander II (five attempts, the last of them being successful). The problem is that Alexander II was almost a revolutionary himself. He abolished serfdom and allowed peasants to buy property, tried to mitigate the tensions in conquered territories (such as former Poland) and was fascinated by American democracy and Abraham Lincoln in particular. He thought of gradual (to avoid grand upheaval) introduction of democratic government. His assassination ruined this vision. Alexander III returned to absolutism, and his son (lacking the skill of his ancestors) was toppled by communists who quickly introduced one of the most inhumane totalitarian regime in the human history. And that's pretty much Templar agenda. |

Turn of the Millennium: The latter portion of The Chain takes place in 2000, while The Fall is mostly set in 2002. In terms of the former, the Assassins are backing Al Gore in the 2000 US presidential election, while the Templars are backing George W. Bush. Daniel murdering the Mentor due to his programming and being forced to divulge his knowledge of the Assassin bases he's visited is what allows the Templars to enact the Great Purge on the Assassins and rig the election so that Bush ends up winning. |

Gambit Roulette: Hoo boy, here we go. Vidic reprogrammed Daniel to relive Nikolai's memories almost at random. While Daniel could keep them suppressed with medication, he eventually decided the meds weren't worth it. Nikolai's memories come back and Daniel begins shouting things about Templars in the middle of an alley. This attracts the attention of Hannah, who assumes that Daniel is an Assassin. Daniel eventually joins the order and even gets to meet the Grandmaster. Once again, due to Vidic's reprogramming, Daniel blacks out and kills the Grandmaster with his own hidden blade. Under Vidic's reprogramming, Daniel returns to Abstergo and reveals the locations of every Assassin training camp he had been to. |

Been There, Shaped History: In The Chain, Daniel manages to be a Gump in his own canon. Have you ever wondered who acquired the information about Ezio Auditore's first-civilization message for Desmond Miles, which led to Desmond's kidnapping, therefore kicking off the entire series? Yup, that was Daniel! |

Too Dumb to Live: For a secret society influencing human history from the dawn of humankind, Assassins show horrendous flaws in their tradecraft. They recruit Daniel almost forcing him into service even though circumstances of his appearance are very suspicious. Despite this, Daniel is selected to meet the Mentor after merely two years. It doesn't end well.... |

Canon Immigrant: Preemptive. Daniel is supposed to play an important role in the games. Revelations has made this official, with him being held as a Templar Hero, a member of their Inner Sanctum, so far appearing twice out of sight with his voice heard, and now working as the Templar's head of operations, further pushing him to be Desmond's Evil Counterpart and future enemy since he's coming after Desmond's dad. As of Assassin's Creed III, he is officially Desmond's Evil Counterpart and the two cross paths several times during the game. |
