"I tell you there is very little Cattanei blood in them. Well, in Lucrezia, perhaps; but Cesare..."
―Vannozza to Ezio and Machiavelli, regarding her children.[src]

Vannozza dei Cattanei (13 July 1442 – 24 November 1518) was a noblewoman in Renaissance Italy and one of Rodrigo Borgia's lovers. She is also the mother of Juan, Cesare, Lucrezia, and Jofré Borgia. However, Vannozza soon grew too old for Rodrigo's likings and had to leave the Borgia family. The children were left to grow up with Rodrigo, which caused Vannozza much grief, seeing as she barely recognized her own children as family.[1]

After Rodrigo's death[2] and Cesare's imprisonment,[3] the Italian Assassins Ezio Auditore and Niccolò Machiavelli went to question her about Cesare's whereabouts. However, Vannozza claimed to not know where he was, and told them Lucrezia was not likely to know anymore than she knew herself.
