In Assassin's Creed, the player assumes the role of Desmond Miles, an average bartender who is the last descendant of a long family line of assassins. Desmond has been taken to a facility where he is forced to use the Animus, a machine that traces and recreates the memories of his ancestors during the Third Crusade. Through these memories, the player controls Altaïr Ibn La-Ahad (الطائر إبن لا احد, Arabic, "The Flying One, Son of None"), a member of the Assassin Brotherhood. Altaïr's objective in the game is to slay nine historical figures propagating the Crusades in the year 1191. (According to Ubisoft's developers, all of the main character's targets are historical figures who died or disappeared in 1191, although not necessarily by assassination.) | In Assassin's Creed, the player assumes the role of Desmond Miles, an average bartender who is the last descendant of a long family line of assassins.
