Lady Black

The Lady Black (harvested from: Lucia Márquez) 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. She wielded a pair of pistols as her specialty weapon.
==​Unique moves==
The Lady Black had several unique moves:
(Low Profile, Front)
Facing her target, the Lady Black pulls out one of her pistols and levels it at their face, to which the former manages to react quickly enough to snatch it out of her hand. Undeterred, the Lady Black spins around and uses her second pistol to shoot her victim in the head, killing them. As they fly back from the blow, the stolen weapon flies from their hand and is neatly caught by the Lady Black, who then places both pistols back into her holsters.
(Low Profile, Back)
Approaching from behind her target, the Lady Black pulls out her pistols and then savagely kicks them in the back of their knee, causing them to kneel in pain. Giving her victim no time to react, she fires a single shot into the back of their neck, killing them instantly.
(High Profile, Front)
Facing her target, the Lady Black grabs them by the neck and throws them to the ground, where they clumsily land. As they scramble to get up, they see the Lady Black grabbing her pistols and raise a hand in an attempt to stop her, to no avail. She swiftly fires two rounds into her victim's chest, leaving them dead on the ground, before she holsters her two weapons.
(High Profile, Back)
Behind her target, the Lady Black grabs her pistols and uses one to sweep out the legs from under her victim, who lands harshly on the ground. Wasting no time, she fires a round into their heart, killing them instantly, subsequently stashing away her weapons.
(Personal High Profile, Front)
Facing her target, the Lady Black draws her pistols and surprises them by leaping onto their hips. Using the momentum, she rides them towards the ground and bashes the butts of her weapons into their shoulders for good measure. Ultimately unbalancing her victim and causing them to fall onto their back, the Lady Black lands on her feet herself and quickly fires two rounds into her target's chest, killing them.
(Personal High Profile, Back)
Rushing up behind her target, the Lady Black grabs ahold of her pistols before elegantly twirling into their field of vision. With a gun suddenly leveled at their face, her victim can only raise their hands in futile surrender before a bullet is fired into their skull. Watching their dead body hit the floor, the Lady Black then holsters her pistols and walks away.
(Aerial Kill)
Jumping down from above, the Lady Black cushions her fall with her target's body, simultaneously immobilizing them. Following this, she aims one of her pistols at her victim's forehead and fires, killing them instantly, before walking away.
(Bench Kill)
Grabbing her seated target's foot, the Lady Black drags them off the bench until their head rests against it. Before her victim can do anything to defend themselves, she forcefully kicks them in the face, violently sending their head backwards and breaking her target's neck on the bench behind them.
