The Gray One

The Gray One (died 860s) was the alias of a spy working for Tabid Al-Nubi, an Alamut Hidden One who as Rafiq operated the bureau in Baghdad's Abbasiyah district.
==History==
As part of his spy mission, The Gray One entered the Round City disguised as a wine merchant to gauge the Abbasid Caliphate's defenses. In his findings, he reported that the Round City was mostly filled with mercenaries from the steppes and the wild desert outside the city, many of whom came from the ranks of the Turkic Warlord Wasif Al Turki. He also reported the presence of fanatical bodyguards deeply loyal to the caliph and that a revolt would likely be crushed right away.Assassin's Creed: Mirage – Notes from Basim's travels: "Spy Report"
Midway through his investigation, The Gray One was exposed due to his lack of knowledge about wine, which drew suspicions from the nearby guard. In another letter, he informed Tabid of his plan to flee the Round City at night and sought to make use of the ropes the Rafiq had given to scale the city walls to safety.Assassin's Creed: Mirage – Notes from Basim's travels: "Letter From a Spy" However, The Gray One was discovered during his escape attempt, and the confusion led to him plummeting to his death. Tabid learned of his death and wrote a letter to the Council in Alamut to report on the spy's status.Assassin's Creed: Mirage – Notes from Basim's travels: "Death of a Spy"
