7) Altaïr Ibn-La’Ahad
Recommended Videos
Look, credit to Altair for kicking off the entire Assassin’s Creed franchise. If nothing else, he certainly looks the part and creates an air of dangerous mystery around him, from the way he walks and moves to just when he stands among the common folk. But man, he is just really, really…kinda dull.
This problem is rectified during his flashback sequences in Revelations, but in the original game, he really is just kinda one note and a bit of a prick. He sounds like an American community college student auditioning for a play, and the lack of insight into his past or true motives make him hard to give a damn about. Why is he with the Assassins? He brings an air of mystery about him, but that also ends up being his big problem.
