I FOLLOW MY OWN SET OF BELIEFS

Shay Cormac had been an assassin all of his life, but as he went on with his mission against the Templars, he began to question the motives that he had followed. After one of his missions went horribly wrong and being branded for assassination by his own brethren, he fled and became a member of the Templar Order, using his skills as an assassin against his former allies.

Gameplay
Much like his fellow assassins, Shay's gameplay style is based around attacking at multiple ranges while also remaining capable of avoiding and countering attacks. His square button moves all center around his sword and daggar, and wrist blades, his triangle moves center around ranged attacks to disrupt opponents, and his circle attacks center around evasion and counters.
