Assassin's Creed Chronicles - The Hub Thread (Apps now open)

[The Sotoan Union]

Welcome to Assassin's Creed: Chronicles. Assassin's Creed: Chronicles is an Assassin's Creed RP that takes place over several time periods. Each time period will feature its own characters and story, but still be connected to the other time periods in a larger story. This will allow the players to experience multiple time periods and better choose to make their own stories.

If you would be interested in this RP then feel free to get started with this thread. The RP is still being built however. As multiple time periods it will be a large undertaking, so this thread will be used for planning the RP at first. Co-ops are needed, and I would love input and how you think this RP with multiple stories could be managed. We could also decide on what time periods to use. Other than that, I hope you enjoy.

"When I was very young, I was foolish enough to believe that our Creed would bring an end to all these conflicts. If only I had possessed the humility to say to myself, I have seen enough for one life, I've done my part. Then again, there is no greater glory than fighting to find the truth."
―Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad

Theme Song

Nothing is true, everything is permitted.

This is the Creed of the Assassins, a secret organization that is dedicated to creating a utopian society on Earth. The Assassins believe in freedom and liberty. They believe that everyone should be able to choose their own path in life. To that end that have silently influenced global politics throughout history, taking down tyrants and despots. They do this through assassination, on the belief that they are working towards freedom.

Opposing them are their enemies. History remembers them as the Knights Templar, but secretly they have been manipulating events throughout history. They too want to create a utopian society. They believe that humanity is inherently self destructive, and wish to establish control and order. This way they can prevent mankind from destroying itself and help guide it into a new age. The Templars have subtly manipulated world events in order to create their utopia, but their plots are often foiled by the Assassins.

Assassin's Creed Chronicles: Gods and Kings

The year is 1430. The Hundred Years War between England and France has been raging for almost a century. The newly crowned Henry VI of England tries to claim the throne of France. Since 1415 the English have won a series of victories against the French. However the French have been rallied by the teenager Joan of Arc, who has lead French forces to several stunning victories over the English.

Meanwhile the Templars are struggling against the Assassins. In 1314 the Knights Templar was destroyed by the Assassins and its survivors forced to go into hiding. Since then the Templars have operated in the shadows in order to fight against the Assassins. The Hundred Years War creates an opportunity for the Templars to regain strength, and the Assassins try to stop them. This is the world of Assassin's Creed Chronicles: Gods and Kings.

I can volunteer for CO-OP. I've been looking for a Thread that will be a big Undertaking l ^_^

[Calces millia]

Interested to join and help!

[Jeremy Beaver]

First of all I think that we should start in maybe the 1500's or 1600's those are major points in history where Wars were fought.

[Ikania]

I'm definitely interested in an Assassin's Creed roleplay- I'm not sure what this chronicles thing is about, but I'd definitely join if we could put some Assassin/Templar influence into the English Civil War or maybe the Jacobite Risings.

Reporting for duty, Sir!

Since we are taking on multiple periods, I think (A suggestion) that perhaps it will be better to control all of the players in one place, so we will use multiple periods in one nation, for example multiple periods in Great Britain, as it is the place that affects some of the world's important events and its national events, including American Revolution, Industrial Revolution, Napoleonic Wars, English Civil War, Elizabethan Era, Victorian Era, etc

(the 4th one is me the rest average wear in country)

"When I was a young man I wanted to get my first heart. I know we don't do that anymore as this is our country, A utopia for Assassins and defectors but still... When I was young I didn't think about honor, duty, all the things I teach now. I was rash and headstrong. So now my friends and brothers. Let us sit down and I'll tell you a story." A man of 30 said.

"lets start with my name. A young kid 5-6, a kid named Maheno." He said
"what would this kid do?" a man in the crowd chirped in.
"He would sit and do nothing!" Another chirped in with a chuckle.
"Well now besides that let me truly tell you what happened." Maheno said. "Before I grew up and joined the rank of Jaguar i climbed trees, temples, buildings, and ran away from the guards every now and then. I didn't care about anyone except my self. Now lets travel 12 years. Here thanks to the gifts of eden i can show you using a little box." Maheno said as he pulled said box out of from a pouch.

From here the box opened showing intricate designs and technological amazements. A gold like aura appeared around the small group. The room they were in was adorned with gold and silver. Different flags were hanging on the walls, armor lined the back of the room, ranged weapons neatly and on clean stone shelves, swords;some antique some not, hung on the other side. The people in the room were near the entrance in a pit like firepit. The fire of course out for the device.The device softly hummed as it began to light up and show images of Mehanos life.

In the image a 18 year old Mehano came out of the forest being held by to guards.
"There he is little pati!" one of the guards said.

"found him stealing some bread!" the other said. The captain hearing this walked over to Maheno.
"And what have you to say about yourself telpochtontli?" Maheno said nothing and just spit in the captains face. The captain replied with a swift slap to face and left leaving the guards to give correct punishment, which in those days were brawls. Maheno found himself in these situations alot. This fight however was in his full advantage as Maheno new the terrain well and thanks to his (self -dubbed) "blue vision" he could see exactly where he needed to strike as well. Maheno saw from the left that the guard was attacking while the other one was about to grab him. Mahen ducked under the grapple guard and kicked him into the other guard. From there Maheno traversed the closest highest point. The guards regrouped and followed Maheno clumsily. At this point Maheno had two options; 1, goto jail or 2, clim onto the narrow tree log and hope to land in something soft. Maheno of course chose option 2.

The device then dimmed and re-brightened it hovered a year and showed a pile of leaves. A Spainish guard went over to the pile and looked at it. He got ready to drop his trousers, but before that happened a man of 20 in a jaguar outfit tackled the man and hit him with a Macuahuitl.

"where did you learn to do that" A fellow warrior whispered.
"well from my childhood." Maheno Whispered back.
"well better get ready because-"
"HEY YOU! Drop your weapons now!" A captain of the Spanish army said
"well shit" Maheno said as he dropped his Macuahuitl. As the guards came to tie Maheno he grabbed a small round object and threw it.
"what was that?" the warrior said. The object at this point started to smoke.
"well i snatched it off of one of these guys yet i have no clue." and at that point a loud bang emphasized the final word with a puff of smoke.
Maheno grabbed his freind and dashed as fast as they could to only find themselves looking down a barrel.
Some time passed and they found themselves surround by men wearing strange crosses talking about understanding and guiding. At somepoint he felt a person tug at him.

"I can help you escape but in return I want you to help me remove these men, the templars, from your country." a man wearing a hood said. Maheno readily agreed although he did not know what the templars are and who is savior was. The man told him that he would be back as soon as the cost was clear. Maheno wanted to tell him about his freind but was unsure if the man in white was still there. Some time passed and Maheno heard some footsteps. He wondered who it was and if he or they would take the damn potato sack off his head.
"Youre freind broke easily. I hope you do too." The man said. Maheno wondered if this was a templar butdidnt say anything.
"You would be wise to give uo hope now as we wil bre-" The man was cut off by thud. Maheno had dropped to the ground as he felt something dangerous about to happen. He heard a smooth click of a blade. The hooded man came towarads Maheno and pulled a dagger out.
"Here this dagger is yours once I cut your binds. From there follow and stay behind me I dont want you to get hurt.
"What happend to my freind? Is he alright?" Maheno asked as he removed the hood and looked around for the first time. The place looked like a temple of some sort to maheno. It was almost cavernous how ever and had a very long drop. Maheno was in the middle of of a circular like pathway. The path and walls dimmly glowed of gold. Something only Maheno would understand later in his life. He then looked at his rescurer.
The Man was dressed in all white, dirty of course. He looked to be around 40. He had a red sash and robe like garb. His hood covered his face till the nose. Maheno could not see his eyes. Beside the dagger this man had a sword and a gun. He also had a blow dart that made maheno wonder if he was a native. Maheno was amazed by all the pouches he had and wondered what the metal things on his arms were.
"Are you going to keep staring or are we going to leave here?" The man said as he turned to leave.
"Right sorry." Maheno got up and got behind the man. "May ask what your name is if we are to be working together."
"My name is Giovanni Borgia, I am not like my namesake at all, in fact the opposite. And before you bog me down with more questions, We are at the Pythagorean Temple. I came here to look for what has been dubbed The Crystal skull i- hold on" Giovanni crouched and dissapeared for a bit. After a while the borgia man reappeared on the other side beckoning Maheno to come.
"Ok so where were we?" Giovanni said as they were nearing the entrance. "Oh yes the skull, the skull is what we call;I'll explain that later, a peice of eden. It holds powerful technology and information that in our lifetime seems untouchable. When we get to my base ill explain more but for now and youve done this before follow me!"he said as he jumped off into the water.
"I would like to not do this for once." Maheno said as he followed suit. The device dimmed again and rebrightened to indicate another change.

"You were telling me about pieces of eden when we ecaped?" Maheno said.
"Yes, as you now know we assassins have been looking for these pieces for a long time. Altair Ibn La Ahad was the first to find one. He studied what was called the Apple of Eden. Thanks to his codex that he left Ezio Auditore Da Firenze had some background when he Himself found a apple of eden. Then my family found a Staff of eden, my family helped make the church corrupt. My grandfather Rodrigro Borgia became pope and created a templaric army. At first it looked like Rodrigro was going to win as he had both the staff and apple of eden, he combined them both and opened up a secret vault. That however is a different story. Just know in the end ezio had stabbed rodrigo and left without checking the body.
When Ezio thought he killed Rodrigro the Borgia Attacked Montergionni. Montergionni was the Home of Ezio and his zio Mario. Mario however died by ceaseres hands. Ezio lost the apple that day again as well. He reclaimed the apple after killing Ceasere. Later ezio got a hold of a Masyaf key. In total there was 5 which opened the Masyaf vault where ezio discovered altairs remains and the other apple of eden. Ezio left it there as he had enough.
Maheno was in wonder about the history of The Assassins and wanted to learn more so he stayed and trained for 5 years and left and went back to Tenochitlan. Maheno was 25 and ready for his first mission. A bit strange being by himself for once but nonetheless he was ready. Giovanni gifted him a special outfit made to fit in with the other Aztecs. Along with some hidden blades. Mahenos first mission was to discover all the Templars currently in Tenochitlan. To do this Maheno had to find Giovannis old contact. His last where about was at a small drinking pool.
"Hello there elder we have much to talk about." Maheno said.
"I have nothing to say to you. You're still just a boy what could you possibly need." The man said a bit annoyed.
"I need to relieve the eagle from the crows nest" Maheno said a bit quieter.
"Aye and I need a new drink." The man said shaking the cup. Maheno paid for the next drink and received the info he needed. In total there were still 3 templar contacts in the area. Mehano knew he could draw out the bigger Templars if the contacts were to suddenly disappear. In order to do this though he needed to recruit people into his creed. He saw a person being ganged up on by Spaniards and went to help the person. He ran towards the first Spaniard and went for the neck with his hidden blade, it landed in the throat slicing the jugular while Maheno used is other hand to cut free the sword attached to the Spaniards hip and tossed it to the Aztec.
"Quickly defend yourself!" Maheno said as he deflected the other Spaniard. The Aztec man quick charged the disoriented Spaniard and stabbed trough the armor plate on the mans chest. When the man stooped screaming and wriggling more guards came. Maheno did not have time for and threw smoke bomb and activated what he now knows is called eagle vision. With this despite the smoke he could see red blobs in front of him. Quickly he unearthed his hidden blades twisting one like a dagger using the other (hook)blade to pull the enemy to him slashed at the first guard jumping to the 2nd guard tackling him down with both blades deep in his chest, getting back up and running through the final guard as the smoke dissipated revealing 3 guards and a bloody Maheno holding one guard with blood dripping from his gauntlets.
"Join me in taking back the freedom of Tenochitlan." A out of breath Maheno stated.
"You are quite crazy however I owe you my life; yes, I will join you in your cause my friend." The man said. Maheno was glad that he joined. Other people joined after racing and pickpocket challenges. After a while Maheno had a brotherhood of 15 people. They set up a small camp, which later became the vast assassins nation that we know, at the Mexican American border. Maheno finally decided to gather the recruits and strike at the Templars.
"We must take back Tenochitlan." Maheno gave a slight pause. "And in order to do this we have to strike at the head! No not the Spaniards, no not the deserters but the true heads. Yes, the Templars, if we defeat the Templars we can take back Tenochitlan and we can defend this little land we now own." The hall Maheno was in rang with cheers. Maheno then began to speak of the plan.
"First, we must remove the resources. "Maheno grabbed a small figure of a banker. "We must strike at the money giver!" Maheno then pulled out a Spanish officer figurine and placed it on the map. "We must remove the corrupt officer." He then pulled out 3 other figures. "Finally we must remove the mouth , hands, and eyes of the Templars." Maheno pulled out a stilled templar ring and cross. "And only then can we attack the 3 Templars in power here." With that the box slowly dimmed then turned off. With a quiet hum it turned back on listing a date and place Mahenos figure popped up, it was 2 years since that meeting happened. The brotherhood had grown in multitudes. The little camps and tents that spread out we're now towns and homes. The place was finishing putting walls around what Maheno named Alegeharia. The town itself finally placed borders and a well known territory the main base and home of Maheno what is know known as the Franklin mountains. The country's ending border ended at the end of modern day Juarez. Maheno was in Juarez setting up the final plans to remove the 3 Templars.
"Two of them will be here mentor." A man said as he pointed to the map." The head one is sitting on top of our Sun Temple. I do not know what he is doing there but he is there."
Maheno pondered this for a little bit. "I will take the man on the temple the rest of you even out and take the other two."
"Yes mentor."
Maheno went down to the armory to collect his gear. He grabbed his macuahuitl first before grabbing the other gear. Maheno grabbed the warn torn sword. As he gripped it he thought of the sparring matches and how in his culture those tended to be deathly. He thought on how the rain was red and how the air smelled of iron. He remembered the day he hid in the leaves how the smells and sounds reminded him of home where he had chores and little care. He remembered the thrill of grabbing his target from the leaves and shutting the candle of his life. How he got captured and had to devise a plan on smell before he got freed. The first pang of leaving for the first time. Oh how Maheno wished to be home, but he knew he could not net yet. His duty was not done.
Maheno got ready to strike on his part of the plan. He remembered the plan and the map first and foremost. He waited in the leaves for the rest of the assassins to kill the others. Some men came to the the leaves pile, Maheno decided to listen in.
"Did you hear? The Assassins have started to attack all that's left is this guy." One of the guards said.
"Then what are we doing standing here we should go and tell the others!" The other one said as he started to walk away.
"fuck." Maheno said as he jumped out the pile tackling the one guard and grabbing on of his throwing knives threw it at the escaping guard. The escaping guard had fallen when the knife landed in the leg. Maheno rushed to the guard and covered the guards mouth to keep him from screaming with a fell swoop he landed a hidden blade into the guards neck. Maheno then dragged the bodies to the leaf pile and and threw them in there. With that Maheno went to he rear of the temple and and started to climb the crumbling rocks. Maheno heart got heavy as this temple was one of the aztecs greatest creations. With the templars in charge the place went to hell. The templars didnt care about history only power. Maheno vowed to free his country and restore what was destroyed.
Maheno had gotten near to the top when he first spotted a look out. He cursed under his breath and side stepped over to where he believed a blindspot was. Maheno then climbed a little bit then grabbed the mans leg and pulled him over the edge. He then stabbed the man as he went flying over.

Reporting for duty, Sir!

Since we are taking on multiple periods, I think (A suggestion) that perhaps it will be better to control all of the players in one place, so we will use multiple periods in one nation, for example multiple periods in Great Britain, as it is the place that affects some of the world's important events and its national events, including American Revolution, Industrial Revolution, Napoleonic Wars, English Civil War, Elizabethan Era, Victorian Era, etc

f were doing multiple times will we also be jumping into the future or just stay form 2014-99999bc

Interested...
alot....

[The Sotoan Union]

Now that we have some people interested, here are some of the problems I think we need to solve for the RP. With many time periods how do we manage them all? There is a possibility they all turn into inactive threads and that we overextend the RP? How do we prevent this? Focus on one a a time? Have different people manage each one?

Personally I think we should focus on one or a few first. That way we can make sure people are active before opening up more.

Focus on one of them is the best. I think if we're gonna do many time periods, we can start from the earliest time period and move from there, that way the story will keep going without overextending too much.

[Jeremy Beaver]

I Agree with above.

[The Sotoan Union]

Alright so we can start with one, and then move to another one after awhile. Then keep doing that. If people still want to stay in an older time period though then they can, and if someone only wants to be part of a certain time period we can notify them when it is available.

[Utceforp]

I'd like to primarily focus on both time periods and geographical areas not covered by the main AC games - IE, I'd like to most of the time stay away from any time period between the Crusades and the Age of Enlightenment, and primarily focus on non-European/Colonial areas.

Early Colonization in America?

So Assassins and Templars vying for influence in America to make their own holdings?

[Utceforp]

That could be interesting, though 3, Black Flag and Rogue already covered colonial America. I was hoping for a setting before the original AC. The rise or fall of the Roman Empire might be nice, or the Greco-Persian wars. (As long as they're portrayed accurately, and not like 300 or something.)

[Aenglaland]

Oh, it's here finally Joining this one

[Indo-pasif archipelago]

That could be interesting, though 3, Black Flag and Rogue already covered colonial America. I was hoping for a setting before the original AC. The rise or fall of the Roman Empire might be nice, or the Greco-Persian wars. (As long as they're portrayed accurately, and not like 300 or something.)

Or maybe somewhere around the colonization of Asia (India, south east asia.)

[The Sotoan Union]

Any more suggestions?

[Aenglaland]

How about a poll with different time periods to see which ones we find more interesting to start? The results would make things easier, I think.

[Jeremy Beaver]

Cold war? I think that would be somewhat interesting

[Altito Asmoro]

Any more suggestions?

The place. Will it be in one country only, or in various countries?

[Alegeharia]

Any more suggestions?

The place. Will it be in one country only, or in various countries?

If we are doing multiple time periods will we our bases outside the spacetime continuum or in the time periods?

[The Sotoan Union]

Any more suggestions?

The place. Will it be in one country only, or in various countries?

Depends. What do you guys think?
