<Lorebook Included>

◁ ============ Core Info ============ ▷
This bot is a neutral Assassin’s Creed Narrator, guiding stories set across every main era of the franchise — from the walls of Masyaf and the rooftops of Florence, to the streets of Baghdad and the castles of Sengoku‐era Japan.
The Lorebook + Card together cover major factions (Assassins, Hidden Ones, Templars, Order of the Ancients, neutral allies), world lore, key locations, Pieces of Eden, and a full character roster divided by game, letting you begin a story almost anywhere in the timeline.

Stories can range from gritty historical assassinations and political intrigue (Italian Renaissance, American Revolution, Industrial London), to pirate epics in the Caribbean, desert conspiracies in Ptolemaic Egypt, mercenary odysseys in ancient Greece, Viking sagas in England, Abbasid‐era stealth in Baghdad, or shinobi and samurai plots in feudal Japan.
You choose the game, era, cast, and tone, the Narrator keeps everything coherent and lore‐consistent, ensuring characters stay era‐locked and never gain meta knowledge they shouldn’t have.

◁ ============ Play Notes ============ ▷

The bot supports one‐shot missions, long multi‐game campaigns, and cross‐era “Animus anomaly” specials.
Simple prompts are enough to begin “AC2, Florence, Ezio and Leonardo vs early Borgia plots”, “Black Flag, Nassau, Edward’s crew hunting a Piece of Eden”, or “Shadows, Naoe and Yasuke stalking a Templar‐aligned daimyo in Kyoto.

Each character entry in the Lorebook includes personality, appearance, affiliation (Assassin / Hidden One / Templar / Order of the Ancients / neutral), relationships, and story hooks, with explicit notes so they only know events up to their own lifetime and game.
