** His MotiveRant, saying that the Order is justified in condemning people to torture because they're imperfect compared to the "perfection of the Ancient Ones" is also reminiscent of [[VideoGame/AssassinsCreedIII Edward Braddock]], who believed that MurderIsTheBestSolution for creating a NewWorldOrder. It also sheds a light on how some Templars justify their countless KickTheDog and MoralEventHorizon moments.

* ThePerfectionist: His White Room conversation brings this aspect of himself (and both the Order of Ancients as well as the Templar Order) to light. For him and the Order, all men must be condemned to pain for "all men are but a shadow of the perfection we should know". As in, HumansAreFlawed unlike our AbusivePrecursors intended (or themselves were), so it's okay to torture and kill as many as needed so the Order can create their NewWorldOrder.

A member of the Order from Iran, manipulating an English noble for her own ends.
----
* AintTooProudToBeg: If Eivor doesn't bother being stealthy, she tries buying her life by offering Eivor wealth and power.
* FalseInnocenceTrick: If Eivor assassinates her patsy, she tries pretending she was his captive and asks Eivor to come close, as she hides a knife behind her back. Given Eivor's already been briefed on her by Roshan, it probably wasn't going to work even if Roshan hadn't landed on her.
* KnownOnlyByTheirNickname: Al-Si'la means "The Hag". Whatever her actual name is, no hints are given.
* TheManBehindTheMan: For the Earl of Westerna, supplying him with gold so he can attack Raventhorpe.
* VillainOfAnotherStory: She's stolen a scroll of some importance to Roshan, who's been after her for a while, though whatever's going on, she's not the main villain of that story, as after killing her Roshan dismisses her as "an obstacle".

* SelfMadeOrphan: Implied, her bio mentions a fire that wiped out her entire family shortly after she developed her interest in anatomy while observing her paralyzed sister. Given the above trope, it's hard to say what happened. It may have been an accidental fire due to her experimentation and studies.

* PantheraAwesome: In the Temple of Sulis Minerva located in London, there is a jaguar being kept caged up, and a note in the same complex from Vicelin about utilizing the oil barrels for their coup attempt. Given his friendship with Gorm, and how jaguars are native only to the Americas, it seems his friend brought it back for him as either a trophy, a pet, or a weapon of war.

* MirrorCharacter: Alfred's role brings parallels to [[VideoGame/AssassinsCreedOdyssey Aspasia]] to the point where he could be considered a SpearCounterpart. Both lead of their respective villainous orders, but would plot their downfalls upon learning that their selfish desires clashed with their well-intentioned goals, using the protagonist to dismantle them before revealing their true identities once they kill off all of their members.

* ShoutOut: His death in the Memory Corridor, being feathered with a absurd amount of arrows before falling dead on the ground, [[is almost exactly like the first Viking scene from Series/AmericanGods2017 American Gods]], though the amount of arrows this time was less ludicrous.
