Physician (Animi Avatar)

The Physician (harvested from: Edmund Judge) was an Animi Avatar used by the entertainment branch of Abstergo Industries, as part of their plan to influence the general public, via the console stage of the Animus technology. He wielded a scalpel as his specialty weapon.
==Unique Moves==
The Physician had several unique moves:
(Low Profile, Front)
Facing his target, the Physician savagely kicks their left leg, causing them to clutch their injured limb. Following this, the Physician takes out his scalpel and slashes his victim across the side of the abdomen before he impales their spine, subsequently ripping out his weapon and sheathing it away as they collapse to the ground.
(Low Profile, Back)
Behind his target, the Physician takes out his scalpel and viciously stabs them in the back. Before they can react in any way, he spins and slashes the newly inflicted wound, severing his victim's spine at the same time. Following this, the Physician then sheathes his weapon, satisfied that his target is dead.
(High Profile, Front)
Rushing over to his target, the Physician grabs them by their left arm and roughly impales them in the stomach twice with his scalpel. As his victim recoils back from being punctured with the blade, the Physician releases his grip on them and watches as their body collapses to the floor.
(High Profile, Back)
Dashing towards his target, the Physician brutally kicks them in the back of the knee, painfully forcing them to kneel. Holding their chin upwards, he then exposes their neck, before taking out his scalpel and slicing their throat. From there, his victim falls forward to the ground, dying of blood loss from their wound.
(Personal High Profile, Front)
Approaching his target from the front, the Physician quickly takes out his scalpel and slices the left side of their stomach open. With the momentum of the blow, it causes his victim's dazed self to spin away, leaving them vulnerable for a stab to the heart. Yanking his weapon out harshly, the Physician proceeds to watch as they collapse to the floor, dead.
(Personal High Profile, Back)
From behind his target, the Physician slices his scalpel into their right leg, causing them to kneel down in pain. Subsequently, he fluidly links his former attack into a full turn, before immediately lodging his weapon into his victim's skull, puncturing their brain and killing them immediately. Following this assault, the Physician wrenches his weapon out of their head and casually walks away.
(Aerial Kill)
Leaping from above, the Physician unsheathes his dagger in mid-air, before landing on his target. As he crashes into them, he plants his blade into the side of their head, fatally impaling their brain. With his victim laying dead on the floor, the Physician stands up and stores his dagger back at his waist.
(Bench Kill)
Grabbing his seated target's foot, the Physician drags them off the bench until their head rests against it. Before his victim can do anything to defend themselves, he forcefully kicks them in the face, violently sending their head backwards and breaking his target's neck on the bench behind them.
