Description
The first drawing in a little project I've started. I'm gonna try to draw a bunch of pictures like this of different Assassins in different time periods in history along with a fitting historical quote, using either in-game canons or my own personal headcanons (or a combination of the two). I thought it might be a fun little project to keep me occupied. I decided to start with the earliest time period in the Assassin's Creed lore: the Isu Era
----------
The Isu (later dubbed ‘precursors’ or ‘the First Civilization’ by future generations) were at the height of their technological advances in the year 75010 BC. There civilization flourished, but it flourished because of a dark reality. They used their technology to advance the evolution of existing apes into hominids similar to themselves: humans. They used their technology to control the minds and bodies of these humans, using them as slaves to build their world for them. However, two new humans, hybrids between the two hominids, were born into the workforce, and would change history forever. Their names were Adam and Eve.
They labored normally like the rest of their species in a factory named Eden. However, that changed when a rogue Isu named Lucifer left his post and snuck in to cause havok. He stole an Apple of Eden, one of the technologies used by the First Civilization to control their slaves, and gave it to Eve. The Apple gave Eve the knowledge and comprehension of the oppression on her species, and she knew she had to take action. She shared the Apple with her husband, Adam, and the two escaped Eden, never looking back. They went around the globe, forming an army that would fight for the freedom and equality of humanity. That army formed a Creed, and eventually dubbed themselves the Assassins. These freed humans launched countless rebellions against the “gods” that created them, and an all out war would soon break out between the two species.
Several Isu and humans joined the Assassins in their fight to save humanity, including Prometheus, Hercules, and even the archangel Gabriel. Eve would've offered Lucifer a chance to join had she not learned of his true intentions: to destroy all life on Earth for his own pleasure. Eve was forced to team up with the Isu’s top soldier, the archangel Michael, to take out the treacherous snake. The fighting went on and on, and neither side was able to turn away long enough to realize the impending threat.
Three Isu scientists, Minerva, Juno, and Jupiter, had learned that an enormous solar flare was soon to erupt and hit the Earth. Knowing that the flare would cause apocalyptic damage to the planet, the three, who called themselves the Capitoline Triad, worked effortlessly to find a way to save the world. They tried method after method, but none worked, and the solar flare eventually hit, causing what was essentially the apocalypse. The war between the Isu and humans had finally come to a close, as both sides now had to work together in order to survive what would eventually be called the Toba Catastrophe.

this story deeply upset me i have Asperger syndrome and because of that i have trouble separating the fact from the fiction especially when it comes to realistically and believable story's like this it would really put my mind at ease if you could tell me how and why you came up with this

Oh... my apologies. I didn't mean to upset you I'm so sorry
This picture and story are merely fan art of the Assassin's Creed series. In the lore of the games, they often include a lot of mythology and legends from several of the world's cultures and religions, just with a bit of a technological twist. This story was just a combination of in-game lore and my own personal headcanons.

I understand. Unfortunately, the actions of several characters can show them to be deserving of a negative light, at least in my own personal opinion. The games do a very good job at not necessarily picking sides between the heroes and the villains. The creators try to leave it up to the player to decide who to cheer for or boo at.

then it would see that good and evil dont exist in the assasins creed world merely the pursuit of power im sorry the games story just really bothered me is all but i guess ill just have to accept that it exists

It's okay. Everyone has different tastes in stories, and that's perfectly fine.
I wouldn't necessarily say good and evil don't exist in the games' world, they just very in meaning with each individual person. The Templars are generally the ones trying to gain power and take over the world in the games, whereas the Assassins believe in the good of all and work to return freedom to all of the world's people.

so are your head cannons which youve not only posted here but in all your AC artworks including the one about dr who even though there written in a believable manner they are just as fictitious as the game of which they were inspired thats my main concern

Avapithecus In reply to moonman86 [2016-06-08 05:11:51 +0000 UTC]
That's correct. They're all just fan art to show my appreciation for the stories that helped me get through so many rough spots in my life (including helping me learn to overcome my own asperger syndrome). Of course, since the games are historical fiction and like to show the player as many historical people and events as possible, I try to add the same amount of historical facts to my own fictions as well. A lot of historical research often goes into making these stories and drawings.

im sorry to bother you but there is one more thing i forgot to ask as ive said the story of AC caused a great deal of stress for me and affected me on a deep level and when something affects me like that sometimes i need reassurance so ill ask you one last time your head cannons espcially the ones concerning adam and eve the struggle that erupted after the solar flare and the stone age are all fiction just like the source material
