Descripción

Engage in courtly life and espionage

"A face is but a story told to the world—mine is a thousand tales, and none of them are true"

Theme: Masters of intrigue, disguise, and social deception, Venetian Masks thrive in the shadows of court politics and crowded masquerade balls. They use misdirection and trickery to infiltrate, manipulate, and eliminate targets.

Playstyle: Social-focused rogue with strong infiltration, disguise, and crowd manipulation abilities.

The city-state of Venice emerged on a lagoon from the ruins of the Roman and Byzantine empires in the 9th century and grew to become the greatest seaport in late medieval Europe and an important centre of commerce linking the continent to the East. A wealthy city throughout most of its history, Venice was involved not only in the lucrative trade of silk and spices but also in the exchange of an equally lucrative commodity: secrets. By the 14th century, Venice's network of state-sponsored professional and amateur spies overseen by the 'spy chiefs', the Council of Ten, brought home new technologies, handled state secrets and listened in on conspiracies and betrayals of its own citizens, creating a system of fear and suspicion that can be likened to the paranoia and atmosphere of surveillance that pervades the modern world.
