Description
Another WIPβ¦What if Altair did find Adha, his lost love? Easy, fangirls (me included), this is just a thought!
Anyway, I wanted to make this sweet and with a touch of spiciness. Even Assassins have hearts!

I think you can find it on Youtube easily. The first time I saw images of it I was like "Wow, that sure is one ugly Ezio", until I realised it was his father!
I would definitely like to know more about Altair's early years, especially his relationship with Adha. I'd like to know why he became an Assassin, see more of the everyday life in Masyaf, you know... the ordinary stuff! But this game was such a hit that I'm sure Ubi would do it's best to keep the fans interested - and spending money!

i still need to find the time to watch those videos. i'll probably start tonight. lol! ezio can't be too ugly! he's the main char, the main char is always at least decent looking. his father can look as creepy as he pleases.
yea i mostly want to see why he joined and his early years as an Assassin.
oo! where'd u get the book at? and was it worth however much u spent?
i saw something about a graphic novel of AC and only saw a few pages but it looks awsm and idk if its even real. if i could find that i would die happily (not immediately, in 70 years or so lol). i read a lot of manga and comics so yea.
MORE IS ALWAYS BETTER! i mean, nintendo can do it, y not ubisoft? only ubi would have to expand the existing stories instead of remakes 100s of years apart (ie Zelda

I got the book from one of the independent sellers at Amazon.co.uk: [link]
But I think at Amazon.com is cheaper. I just didn't want to go through all that trouble with customs when you order something from the US. It takes so long and it's so much work it seems like I'm ordering a bag full of explosives. 
Yeah, there's a comic book called "Desmond". I have it as an app for the iPhone, but I think this is the printed version: [link]
It's really cool and you get to see more of the Subject 16 and his Assassin ancestor. Good stuff!
π: 0 β©: 1
lol. i completely forgot about Amazon. i'm an ebay user. even with the annoyance of customs and that stuff, its hard to tell if u're getting a good deal and the real thing. my friend ordered black wii remotes from hong kong (we live in the US) and they ended up being cheap but they were knockoff brands and didn't function correctly. so beware!!!
ok kool! at least i know the name of it now. typing in "assassin's creed graphic novel" wasn't doing much good. man, if i ever get an iPod touch i'm getting that app! (that is if i don't get the book).
i watched Lineage and it was amazing! most of the characters were well portrayed except (in mu eyes) Ezio (sadly). i thought the kid that played him looked too girly. even tho he was supposed to be younger there, he didn't look right to me...
π: 0 β©: 1
I felt the same about Ezio. The actor is too young and too pretty in a feminine way - doesn't remind me of Ezio at all! But I still loved watching the story with real people!
I went to see "Prince of Persia" last weekend and the film has so many references to Assassin's Creed they could perfectly make one of AC!
π: 0 β©: 1
yea, and his hair was everywhere!!! the only reason i knew it was Ezio was because of his clothes and when ppl said that he was Ezio.
is it good?! i've played the game and gamers have had mixed feelings about the movie. Well, Ubisoft made bother AC & PoP, and yea they are similar (and therefore both are awsm). Lineage is soooo good! if the ppl who make games make the movies for the games like Ubi did, then there would be some great movies out! i still can't believe that most of the set of Lineage was just greenscreen.
π: 0 β©: 1
The movie is quite good. Of course we can't expect a complex plot or magnificent performances, but there are a few major actors in the cast and they kind of save the day. And visually it's outstanding! Beautiful sets and landscapes, wardrobe, soundtrack... That's all extremely good. And there are A lot of Assassin's Creed moments - including a "view point" and a jump similar to the leap of faith! So I wish the guys at Ubi would come up with a feature film of AC already!
π: 0 β©: 1
kool! i must go see it soon! well i got 4 days left of school so i'll have time.
to me, the plot has to be decent and (by this day & age) the set has to look great. i hate the tv shows/films that its extremely obvious that the creatures/backgroung/stuff is computerized in. kinda like how in the first spiderman movie (love that movie, i'm not dissing it) it was obvious that the swinging spiderman was computerized because the colors just weren't right and he was too shiny looking.
if they made an AC movie they need Francisco Randez [link] to be Desmond! or even Altair (since they look the same)~!
π: 0 β©: 1
Randez is sooo gorgeous! I usualy don't like models as actors, but since Ubi modeled Altair and Desmond after him and he's soooo hot, I'd make an exception!
π: 0 β©: 1
yea, same here. gah i hope thy make something to explain why AltaΓ―r became an assassin!!!!! now i'm just repeating myself, sorry.
u said u have the app on ur ipod/iphone (can't remember) of Assassin's Creed 1.0 Desmond, right? do u speak French then? cuz thats all i can find it in is French; meanwhile i only speak English and the basics of Japanese.
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, I speak French - although I'm a bit rusty now. But I think the printed version of "Desmond" is translated in English as well.
You speak Japanese? That's awesome! I always wanted to learn!
π: 0 β©: 1
kool! hey, rusty is better than not knowing at all. i'll have to look harder for it then!
yea, i take a Japanese class in school. i'm going to Jap 3 (out of 3) next year. its easier than it sounds, but we learn the generic sentences like "hello, i am (name)." and whatnot. the most useful for a real life situation we learned was resturant dialogue and we didn't go too far into it because of finals. hopefully we'll pick it up next year.

I think, because of your art, this couple is more appealing to me than before.

Thank you so much!
I must stop being lazy and colour this one of these days...
And thank you for the

You're art is great! Keep doing it!

Dude, can I color this?
I will credit you, but i love this pic and i want to see it with colors
So can I?
π: 0 β©: 1
I'm working on it myself, but I guess you can...
BUT you may not submit it to any group and, as you said, you must credit me for the lines... If that's ok with you, then go ahead.
And I'm not a dude, I'm a girl!

Oh, IΒ΄m so sorry my Friend
Okay, i don`t upload it i any group
And i will credit you, and....Thank you so much

No problem! I'd like to see it when it's done!
π: 0 β©: 0
I love this! The lines are simple, clean and the image is perfect! Beautiful
I'm a huge fan of AC, it's incredible, and I love that others on here seem to like it as much as I do. I'd attempt to draw Altair and Ezio myself except my drawing skills are... well, I tend to stick to anime characters, lol! Much easier to draw.
It's also nice to see a non-yaoi picture. DA is flooded with them right now and personally I don't see where it has come from- both Ezio and Altair are WAAAY too manly and they have their female lovers (as you have so awesomely depicted here)
Thank you for this, and I look forward to future drawings from you!
π: 0 β©: 1
Thank you so much!
Yep, there's a huge community of AC fans here - I'm obviously one of them.
As you can see, the characters are depicted in very different ways, so why not try an anime approach?
Well, I'm also not a big yaoi fan, especially when it comes to Assassins - I like mine to be, as you said, manly! 
Thank you so much for the 
Btw, I see you are a History student. That, along with Art, should have been my picks. Instead, I decided that it would be better to be a translator... 
π: 0 β©: 1
Lol, yeah, Greece, Rome and early Persian history are my subjects
What language do you translate??? I'm planning to learn some Japanese when I have finished my studies but I have no idea where to start with it- it's been years since I last had any kind of language lesson, and that was in German.
I'm surprised you are't an art student, considering how awesome your work is!
π: 0 β©: 1
Ok, I'll just die of envy right now! 
I translate between Portuguese, English and French. I also speak a few words of Spanish, but those are my main languages. I'd love to learn Japanese, sounds amazing. Go for it!
I wanted to follow History or Art when I went to college, but artists and historians in my country starve happily to death. Now I know it doesn't matter. So yeah, never took an art class in my life. I'm planning to do so this summer.
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, the Iliad is good, but have you ever read the Epic of Gilgamesh? You should, you'd find some interesting parallels between the two :wink: I wrote my dissertation on them and I loved it so much
As for studying what I like... eh, I dunno. I like Greek history, and I love Persian too, but I don't like Rome that much. I like the early stuff, with the Gracci and the rise of Pompey and Caesar, but after that it doesn't hold my interest. Not sure why, lol. I originally wanted to study Egyptology, but it wouldn't lead to a real job unless I took on an Masters and PhD, both of which I know for a fact I could never afford to do 
God, you must be so clever to be able to speak three languages! I could never do that, not unless I had a bout 50 years to do it in, lol! Before I even start with Japanese I'm going to get some tasters, see what is like and see if I understand what it's about before I pay hundreds of pounds for a course. I just love the sound of it, though- so pretty!

You mean the epic about the Sumerian king? I've read about it, but not the real thing. I must have a look!
I know, for me the Roman Empire story is over after Nero died. When an Empire begins to give in to religious interests and intrigues, it's usually the end of the game. Obviously, I was watching "Kingdom of Heaven" for the 40th time and that reinforced by belief that "God Wills It" is the most dangerous sentence in the History of Mankind. Together with "There's no coffee."
Lol, I'm not a genius! Languages are like music, actually. You just learn the sounds and then "sing it". It's a bit more complicated than that, but it's not that big of a deal. I am thinking of learning a new language too, perhaps Arabic. Japanese sounds great - it's very harsh and very melodic at the same time. Maybe you can find some online free courses before you make your decision!
π: 0 β©: 1
Sorry for interupting your conversation, but I just want to mention that speaking Arabic would be very nice 
Oh, and you would be able to talk with AltaΓ―r 
π: 0 β©: 1
Lol! Talking to Altair is the main purpose!
Seriously now, I just think Arabic is a very musical and peculiar language - it would be quite a challenge!
π: 0 β©: 1
Yup, and that purpose is good enough XD.
Yeah, it is. But again, how cool would it be to speak it? XD. I have a friend, who can speak Egyptican. It sounds sooo awesome!
π: 0 β©: 1
Egyptian? The new one (which is an Arabic variation, of course) or the ancient one? Don't tell me it's the ancient one, that's too cool!
I can speak just a few words of Arabic and Berber that I learned in Morocco, but I wish I would have learned more...
π: 0 β©: 1
I think it's the new, sorry
For how long were you in Morocco? I mean, it's limited how much you can learn on a week or two xD.
π: 0 β©: 1
That is still awesome!
Oh, I lived there for 6 years, but I was too little to remember the language. My mum says I already could speak very simple arabic, but all I remember is the French!
π: 0 β©: 1
Yup, it is (:.
Wow, 6 years? That's a lot, I thought it was some kind of vacation XD.
Well, if you could speak a bit arabic by then, it maybe is "hidden" somewhere in your head

If it is, it's buried deep, deep down!

This is beautiful!
I'm not much of a fan of Adha as a Character, but this drawing makes the two of them look like a great couple... sexy, even.
Maybe you should do one for Ezio/Rosa...? There is definetly a lack of not-yaoi-AC-Fanart here on deviantart.
π: 0 β©: 1
Thank you! And thank you for the
I prefer to see Altair and Maria as well, but Adha is all curvy and girly... Fun to draw.
And, although I love the quality of some of the yaoi works here on DA, I prefer the canon couples.
Unfortunately, I'm not a big fan of Ezio. I find him amusing and reckless in a funny way, but Altair is my favourite.
Maybe I'll give Ezio a chance next time, but I'm now working on a little something featuring Maria and Altair...
Thanks again!
π: 0 β©: 1
No problem, you're welcome!
Yeah, some of the yaoi stuff is good artwork, but I'm just not into that. There are maybe five or six good drawings/paintings of Altair kissing a woman, while you can find him and Malik in all kinds of... positions
Ah okay. Well, I'm looking forward to see your Maria/Altair thing!
π: 0 β©: 1
Well, here is a first draft.
π: 0 β©: 1
Beautiful
Sadly though, when Altair does find Adha, she is dead. He is heartbroken and nearly brought to tears by this and takes out vengeance on her murderers. Tis sad cuz she was his true love.
~D
π: 0 β©: 1
That is just sad...
I don't know if you are aware of the twist in "Assassin's Creed II", but it seems Altair found someone else...
But I still like Adha!
Oh, and thank you!
π: 0 β©: 1
Oh believe me, I'm MORE than AWARE of that stupid, twisted relationship with Maria. I say don't settle for anyone less than the ONE... In Altair's case, that was Adha. Maria was just a one night stand spawned by lust, not love. Perhaps later on down the road they actually fell in love and got married or something like that as Altair is recorded as having two sons (but then again, he could have had some daughters too, but his sons were noted because Altair trained them as assassins).
Even so, Adha was his true love as he was deeply hurt when he found her dead.
