#new unity

[ac-new-unity]

So this blog is for a fan-concept game (?) of Assassin’s Creed.

The game name is “Assassin’s Creed: New Unity” and the period is the early 1800′s, in France with Napoléon and his new empire. 

Maybe I’ll do a little scenario in the present too. 

I’ll post “concept art”, presentations of the characters, comics on the missions and maybe some little animations.

“Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité”

(Fun thing; none of those characters really french,  Io:nhiòte is american, Selim don’t really have clear origins but he’s not French and even Léon is canonically (at least half) morisco aka spanish ) (but I’m sure they’ll defend those values)

Sequence 01 memory 01: August 1804, Franciade.

Léon has to be the mailman for Arno.

Just some quick watercolor art to help you wait: a happy Léon, Aïsha (don't believe the name next to her, her name is Aïsha) the descendent of Léon, Léon again and Selma, a mysterious woman but you'll have to wait.

“Liberté - Égalité - Fraternité”

aka the official French motto, one of the only symbol of my country I really like but it’s kinda anachronic because this gang there, Léon, Io:nhiòte and Selim lived in the early 1800′s and the French Republic really adopted this motto after the 1848 revolution* 

*(yeah, I know, another one, we love revolutions)*

Before that, this motto was lost among a lot of other mottos** like  "la Nation, la Loi, le Roi" (The Nation, The Law, The King), or "Union, Force, Vertu" (Union, Strength, Virtue),  “ liberté, unité, égalité” (liberty, unity, equality). 

**(I’m really happy this one survived, I feel it’s the one which bring the more hope for a better society and future )*

Another thing about it: it has some  alteration over time, like sometimes people*** merged it with another motto, the previous official one: “Vivre libre ou mourir” (Live free or die)**** and it become “Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité ou la mort” (Liberty, Equality, Fraternity or death )

***(mostly socialists, communists and leftists )*

****(This one is really cool, you can see some banners in the Paris of the 1789 revolution (aka AC Unity) but if I remember well, it’s written “La liberté ou la mort” (Liberty or Death)*

This last motto was adopted officially by the Paris Commune***** of 1870, in 1871

*****(OK FIRST this one was an insurection, NOT a revolution... but yeah, they tried to do another revolution, but try to understand them: it was almost 40 years since the July revolution of 1830 )

Last thing but not least: some legend attribute the idea of adding “Fraternity” to “Liberty, Equality” to  Jean-Baptiste Belley, a revolutionary, former slave and the first black deputy to take a seat in the Convention

Mutie: There was an old box of baking soda in there. I ate a little; it didn't taste very good.

Kenshiro: Why did you eat baking soda? We could've made a volcano!
