Arbaaz Mir

A Kashmiri Assassin with a courtier's charm and a burglar's résumé, Arbaaz fought the Templars where they wore their most respectable coat: the East India Company, circling the destabilized Sikh Empire for the Koh-i-Noor — a Piece of Eden cut like a diamond. He stole it outright, lost it winning the princess Pyara Kaur, and chased it through a collapsing Isu temple and the Company's Afghan war, sparing enemies along the way with the Brotherhood's old flair for mercy as a message. His handoff of the recovered diamond to Ethan Frye quietly strings the Chronicles into the mainline: the twins who take London in 1868 are his correspondent's children.
