* DungeonBypass: Aveline has to find some hidden precursor ruins beneath Chichen Itza, a circuitous path that has her climbing cliffs, descending through caves and swimming underwater a bunch. She finds the macguffin, and then the Templars show up simply by using explosives to break into the underground temple.

Added DiffLines:

* HappinessInSlavery: Aveline investigates a string of disappearances of workers and slaves and follows the trail to Chichen Itza. What she finds is both surprising and sinister: the Templars have set up a community where there are no whips or chains, and everyone works happily for the common good. However, nobody gets paid, nobody actually owns anything until their contract is up, and nobody is allowed to leave (or to even ''think'' of leaving; "why would anyone want to leave?") It's the Templar ideal writ small: a world where everyone is a slave but doesn't know it.

* NecessaryDrawback: All three of Aveline's personas have drawbacks. Her Lady outfit lets her charm or bribe guards so she can waltz right past checkpoints, but she can't climb in a skirt and heels so she's stuck on the ground, and her running speed sucks. Her Slave outfit does let her climb around, and it has a bunch of unique blending options, but your notoriety also rises higher for doing anything unusual, including climbing. Her Assassin outfit lets her have access to all sorts of weaponry, but your Notoriety will always be at a minimum of 1 (possibly because seeing a woman covered in weapons running around is too unusual to NOT investigate).

* PoisonedWeapons: Like [[VideoGame/AssassinsCreedBrotherhood Ezio's]] poison dart, Aveline uses a blowpipe to a similar effect. There are two types: the "fast" poison that kills guards quickly, and the "berserk" poison that makes them attack other guards in a frenzy. Unlike Ezio's berserk, they really do ''attack'' and don't just swing their sword around at random. Both of these can also be delivered from her umbrella as the Lady; it has a slow loading time but the benefit is that nobody sees it happen, even if it's right in front of them.
