Biography
Early Life
The Mentor is a mysterious figure who was active during WWI and WWII, although his age is not known, it is assumed he was an assassin on the field at a very young age.
When he got the title of Mentor, the Brotherhood decided he would have to stay hidden to avoid being caught again. One of his most trusted friend took his identity as Leon F., changing birth records and some battles records from WWI to fit with the older person who now portrayed him. Merging the two identities, Léon Faye and the Mentor became two different person, something Leon regretted in his later life.
Leon adopted Peter when his parents were killed, and trained him to be an Assassin as soon as he could.
