Other Historical figures promised to appear are...

Niccolò Machiavelli: Italian philosopher and writer of Politics, military theory.

Caterina Sforza: Countess of Forlì and alchemist accused of trying to kill the pope with poison letters.

Lorenzo de' Medici: Known as Lorenzo the Magnificent Italian statesman and de facto ruler of the Florentine Republic

Many weapons will beupgradable by taking them to Da Vinci, such as upgrading a blade with a tiny poison needle that can be used in sneak mode without the target even noticing he has been stuck!
