** Peter the Hermit too, as he is shown lying about receiving a letter from {{God}} himself to go on a crusade. It's implied by his face's gleeful expressions and some remarks about the lands that he has other interests than just going there on a pilgrimage.

* BlatantLies: When asked about who hired a [[TheHashshashin Hashshashin]] to kill a Seljuk commander after talking about said assassination, Caliph Al-Mustazhir of Baghdad looks around himself nervously and unconvincingly pretends he doesn't know who did it.

[[UsefulNotes/ThePope Pope Urban II]], Peter the Hermit, King Baldwin I of Jerusalem, Kilij Arslan I (Seljuk Sultan of Rûm), Al-Mustazhir (Abbasid Caliph of Baghdad) and Alexios I Komnenos (UsefulNotes/{{Byzantine|Empire}} emperor) speak about the [[UsefulNotes/TheCrusades First Crusade]] (1095-1099).
----
* CatchPhrase: Pope Urban II has one that doubles as a ShoutOut to [[Literature/TheFourGospels the Bible]]: "En vérité je vous le dis..." ("Verily, I say unto thee...").
* DirtyCoward: Peter the Hermit is depicted as a coward who fled when his "army" of pilgrims was massacred and tried to pass as a Muslim.
* EveryoneHasStandards: Sultan Kilij Arslan says his armies slaughtered the pilgrims of Peter the Hermit when they reached Anatolia, but they spared the children and [[SlaveMarket sold them]] as [[MadeASlave slaves]], because they (the Seljukids) "are not dogs".
* ImAHumanitarian: Baldwin tells how he and his men had to resort to cannibalism in order to survive the lack of of supplies from siege to siege in the Holy Land. And he developed a taste for human flesh as a result.
* LaughingAtYourOwnJokes: Baldwin talks about "see land and even grab land" about the Holy Land. In French, there's a rhyme with "voir du pays, et peut-être même avoir du pays". He then laughs, both because of the rhyme and because he's [[OpportunisticBastard gleefully expecting to grab lands for himself]].
* MedievalMorons: Seljuk sultan of Rûm Kilij Arslan I, Byzantine emperor Alexios I Komnenos and even Pope Urban II to some extent point out how stupid Peter the Hermit's pilgrims are, as [[TimeDissonance they believe the Christ lived "three or four generations before them" and not over a thousand years]], massacre Jews on the road to the Middle East ("Those are not Turks, guys...") and [[TooDumbToLive go to the Holy Land with next to nothing resembling a strong army]].
* MundaneUtility: In the CreativeClosingCredits, the [[VideoGame/AssassinsCreedI Altaïr]] {{expy}} uses his hidden blade to cut a crew member's duct tape.
* OpportunisticBastard:
** How Baldwin is portrayed. He's upfront when saying he became a crusader so he could grab land in Palestine, and jumps at the chance of becoming King of Jerusalem after the premature death of Godefroy de Bouillon.
** Peter the Hermit too, as he is shown lying about receiving a letter from {{God}} himself to go on a crusade. It's implied by his face's gleeful expressions and some remarks about the lands that he has other interests than just going there on a pilgrimage.
* RunningGag: Kilij Arslan I, Alexios I Komnenos and Pope Urban II keep talking about Peter the Hermit's [[MedievalMorons moronic]] pilgrims with the exact same words.
* ShoutOut: A [[TheHashshashin Hashshashin]] shows up. And his attire is inspired by, of course, [[VideoGame/AssassinsCreedI Altaïr ibn-La'Ahad]].
* VestigialEmpire: Alexios I Komnenos proudly makes it clear that UsefulNotes/TheRomanEmpire is still there, in the form of the Greek-speaking UsefulNotes/ByzantineEmpire, since only the Western part of it collapsed... though he concedes that it has lost large chunks of territory to the Muslims by this point.
