assassin's creed
leonardo di ser piero da vinci (voiced by carlos ferro) (1452–1519), better known as leonardo da vinci or simply leonardo, was an italian renaissance polymath. his genius, perhaps more than that of any other figure, epitomized the renaissance humanist ideal. his lifelong friendship with ezio auditore begins when ezio's mother, maria, has her son help leonardo move some paintings from his new workshop. leonardo comments that his current work lacks purpose, but maria is confident that he will go on to do great things. after ezio's father and brothers are murdered by rodrigo borgia's men, ezio brings to leonardo two objects from his father's study: a broken hidden blade, and a page from the mysterious codex written by altaïr. leonardo repairs the blade and deciphers the codex, fascinated by the technological secrets it alludes to. as ezio continues his assassin training, leonardo makes several upgrades to ezio's weapons and armor, including a poison blade, a gun, and a poison dart launcher. some time after ezio foils the pazzi conspiracy, leonardo receives a commission from a venetian noble, prompting him to set up a new workshop in venice. as ezio had his own business in the city, he accompanied him. he developed an interest in flight, and invented an experimental flying machine, which ezio used on one of his missions. after seeing the apple of eden, leonardo marveled at the futuristic visions it showed him. he then developed an interest in the findings of pythagoras, and was eventually able to create a map leading to a temple built by his followers. eventually, leonardo was blackmailed by cesare borgia into designing templar war machines. he continued to support ezio, in secret, until he was kidnapped by a third party, the cult of hermes, who wanted him to lead them to the temple of pythagoras. he is eventually rescued by ezio, and despite his injuries, explores the temple, fascinated by the numeric codes found within. although leonardo does not appear in "assassin's creed: revelations", the novelization describes him dying peacefully at his home in amboise, with his friends (including ezio, who is now retired from the assassins) at his side. in "assassin's creed iii", the darvenport homestead's residential carpenter obtained some of leonardo's blueprints and, at connor's request, build a prototype replica of the original flying machine.
