The De la Serre family was a French noble family with very strong ties to the Templar Order. They were fairly wealthy, as evidenced by their ownership of two luxury estates, one in Versailles and another in Paris.[1]

History[]

A very old and noble family, the De la Serres had always possessed strong roots in the Templar Order. For several decades, a de la Serre had held the position of Grand Master of the French Rite. They also held close ties with their British counterparts, the Carroll family of England.[2]

By the time of the 18th century, the family consisted of François de la Serre,[1] his wife Julie de la Serre,[2] and their daughter Élise de la Serre.[1] The family also took Arno Dorian, the son of the late French Assassin Charles, and raised him as their ward.[3][4] In 1776, Julie and Élise were attacked in a Paris alley by two men, one of whom wielded a Hidden Blade. Julie managed to fight and kill one, but was doubtful of the veracity of the apparent Assassin. The family suffered a tragedy later on when Julie fell fatally ill and died in 1778, leaving her husband and daughter devastated,[1] and was further diminished with Francois' murder[4] in a coup[5] in 1789 during a ceremony initiating Élise into the Order.[4]

With the deaths of her parents, Élise was left the sole survivor of the de la Serre family and spent many years tracking down the man who orchestrated the coup against her family, François-Thomas Germain.[2] Though Germain was indeed slain, Élise was killed in the attempt and her death rendered the De la Serre family extinct.[6]

Legacy[]

The de la Serres had a profound impact on Arno, having adopted him early on after Charles' murder in December 1776.[3][4] His relationship with Élise was a bright spot for him amidst the turmoil of the French Revolution,[1] and its unfortunate end lingered in his mind when the revolution ended.[7]
