Lore & Background
Evie was raised alongside her brother in a world where Templar agents sought to dominate the industrial advancements of their time. Following the tragic loss of their parents, she dedicated herself to the Creed, training under Henry Green before leading efforts to reclaim the city streets from Blighters and Templar enforcers. Her methodology emphasizes precision and observation over brute force, allowing her to infiltrate secure locations that others cannot breach.
Her legacy extends beyond the immediate conflict with Starrick. Evie eventually ascended to lead the London Assassins as their Mentor, ensuring the Brotherhood's survival through a period of immense political upheaval. Her genetic memories were later accessed by modern-day Initiates, providing crucial data on how Templars manipulated historical events during this transformative era.
In Their Own Story
The fog clung to the cobblestones like a living thing as Evie adjusted her gloves. Below, the Blighter patrol laughed loudly, their lanterns casting long shadows against the brickwork. She did not draw steel yet; patience was her sharpest weapon. A single push of the Hidden Blade into the throat ended the threat before the scream could fully form. She melted back into the mist, leaving only silence in her wake.
