Because of this, he eventually sent his armor away, no longer needing it for protection, and also because he feared that its technology was far too dangerous even for modern-day combat) '''[[Stamina]]:''' '''Superhuman''' (Even when grievously injured and profusely bleeding Altaïr still refused to back down and proceeded to fight hordes of guards as if nothing happened to him during his journeys in Mongolia in the 1220s and on his return to Masyaf in 1247. Even before he ascended to the rank of Master Assassin, during the events ''Altaïr's Chronicles'' he was already capable of clearing entire fortresses full of soldiers without any sign of exhaustion or ever stopping in his tracks, all in the matter of a single day) | Below Average Human (Can barely walk) | Superhuman (Altaïr retained the same stamina that he had in his youth due to his renewed training) '''[[Range]]:''' '''Standard Melee Range''', '''Extended Melee Range''' with swords, several '''Tens of Meters''' with throwing knives, several '''Hundreds of Meters''' with bullets, at least several '''Kilometers''' with the Apple of Eden, possibly far higher (Could easily cover entire cities if he chose to, his Apple clones could easily dispatch of enemies from Masyaf Castle to as far as the Masyaf gates without even trying). '''[[Standard Equipment]]:''' A Syrian Saber (c. 1189, regains it again in 1191, but abandons it for his own personal longsword after killing Al Mualim), Adha's sword (c. 1190, abandons it shortly before the events of the first game), Sword of Altaïr (c. 1191, later regains it back and keeps using it until 1228), a short blade, throwing knives, and the iconic Hidden Blade, bombs and grappling gun (Later abandons them shortly before his mission at Solomon's Temple), the Apple of Eden #2 (from 1191 until his death in 1257, said Apple was previously used by [[Flavius Metellus]] against Bayek in 47 BCE [https://imgur.com/OOqISCJ as confirmed in the official ''Assassin's Creed Infographics'' encyclopedia]), eventually has a second Hidden Blade, a Hidden Gun, Poison darts and blade, and the Armor of Altaïr which he invented, black powder arrows (Which he used to scatter the forces of Genghis Khan in order to get a killing shot at the Khan). By the near end of his life, he makes use of catapults and a cane-sword. Also keeps 6 Masyaf Keys with him to store his memories, but it's applicable only in a sense for those who view it. '''[[Intelligence]]:''' Extraordinary Genius. Altaïr was raised at the Assassin fortress at Masyaf and quickly rose through the ranks of the Order to become one of the most respected and feared Assassins in the Brotherhood, second only to its leader, Al Mualim. A cold and objective man, Altaïr fully devoted himself to whatever course he chose to pursue. He had a proud nature, and was often impetuous, demanding, arrogant, and impatient. However, after his failure at Solomon's Temple and commencing on a mission to redeem himself, Altaïr began pondering the motivations of his targets after listening to their final words. Altaïr was a Master Assassin, capable of extraordinary acrobatic feats and versed in the application of deadly arts. Trained extensively, he was able to overcome any obstacle, human or terrain, climb the tallest towers and leap from the highest ledges without a hint of fear. Like other Assassins, he was also trained in stealth assassination techniques, hand-to-hand and weapons combat, and blade throwing. His noncombat skills included climbing, urban acrobatics, eavesdropping, interrogation, and pickpocketing. He also had extensive knowledge of Holy Land politics and religion, which helped him better understand his opponents. Once he gained access to the Apple's powers, he begain introducing new techniques to all the fields required for an Assassin to be perfect, like stealth, disguise, killing from the shadows, reconnaissance, combat skills, adaptability, advanced weaponry, using advanced tactics and much more. According to Niccolò Polo, at the age of 92 Altaïr retained the same strength; stamina and skill he had in his youth, possibly due to renewed training when he reclaimed the title of Mentor. Altaïr also possessed Eagle Vision, a "sixth sense" or intuition that allowed him to see a person's true intentions. Due to this gift, Altaïr had heightened intuitive abilities and senses, along with his sharpened fighting skills. Altaïr's skills made him one of the most deadly and adept Assassins in the Order's history, and they were legendary even after his death. Altaïr was also a skilled artist, and his Codex was heavily illustrated. In it he drew blueprints for Hidden Blade modifications; manuals for assassination techniques, maps, and even a detailed sketch of his wife, Maria, bordered with hand-drawn flowers. Due to his extensive research on the Apple thanks to his extremely fast learning skills, he had written several thousands of books dedicated to the Apple's knowledge alone in an extremely short amount of time and even made a library for them using advanced materials that even steel could not penetrate. As mentioned in his final confrontation with Abbas, Altaïr claimed to have seen many things about life, death, the past and the far future, thoroughly indicating that Altaïr had even learned about modern technology itself. He had invented advanced alloys as new materials for his Hidden Blades, alloys that were rare even in the modern world, and he even built an armor set far more advanced and lighter than anything else existing in the modern world, and he destroyed its formula in fear of the technology being too powerful for mankind to use. He was even trying to uncover the true origins of human life and why they existed, but having just started in the last years of his life, this meant that he would never finish his work. Even in death he would still occasionally hallucinate with the immense amount of knowledge he had gained in his entire lifespan and when spending a few moments on the Apple alone.<ref name="AC2AltairCodex" /><ref name="ACTheSecretCrusade" /><ref name="ACRevelations" /> '''Weaknesses:''' Standard human weaknesses, but has survived situations that would kill most peak-level human beings (According to Niccolò Polo in ''The Secret Crusade'' novel, at the age of 92, Altaïr retained the same strength, stamina, and skill he had in his youth, possibly due to renewed training when he reclaimed the title of Mentor). Upon Adha's death, he became increasingly depressed, arrogant and prone to outbursts to the point where it resulted in him breaking all three tenets of the Creed, and being punished and demoted, forcing him to slowly climb back through the ranks and becoming wiser as a result, and eventually obtained a new sense of honor to protect the oppressed people of the Holy Lands. Refuses to back down or give up even when the odds are against him or even when he is heavily injured. Was almost consumed by vengeance of his son Sef's death at the hands of Abbas and after witnessing his wife [[Maria Thorpe|Maria]]'s death, Altaïr was once again driven into a severe depression for over 20 years since then, alienating himself from his family for most of this duration, suffering from hallucinations and other diseases until 1247, when he finally regained his resolve and his status as Mentor upon killing Abbas. {| class="wikitable mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" !'''[[Feats]]:''' |- | *Can casually defeat multiple enemies in mail-plated armor with his bare hands and is also capable of effortlessly breaking their bones in this state *Can effortlessly stab and slice through mail-plated armor without any resistance, and can stab through helmeted heads and rotate them a full 360 degrees *[https://imgur.com/a/dxIpW7L Can easily snap necks via the guillotine choke method] *Could easily send people flying several meters with a single kick, as seen in ''Altaïr's Chronicles'' *Survived being burned in huge vats of oil for extended periods multiple times in a row (''Altaïr's Chronicles'') *[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PBX26gjwDNc&t=7m23s Easily broke apart wooden pillars with a single kick during the siege of Alep in 1190] *[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HteMeanH_iA&t=6m19s Also broke stone pillars with a single kick] *[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L2X68Ie6aQ0&t=2m57s Survived being thrown through wooden scaffoldings by Robert de Sablé and was merely knocked back] *[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ls2wIYeXGco Traded blows with Badr, a gigantic bodybuilder, despite being inferior to the brute, knocking down an entire circus in the process] *[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vKS22H3b-EU and later on overpowered and killed Basilisk] *[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_BBFQCPmlM&t=3m08s Capable of casually slicing through wooden beams] *[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zJWLQxVzios&t=1m44s Vastly superior to Garnier de Naplouse's guards, who could break people's legs with a casual kick] *[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=omeq5hbnIS8 Overpowered and defeated Robert de Sablé in their final fight during the Battle of Arsuf, and the two were equals by that time] *[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTmvxdnGqnA Can easily crush necks with grip strength alone via the guillotine choke method] *Regularly brushes off his Leaps of Faith, and normal Assassins, even if they do it incorrectly, often only suffer from a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_BBFQCPmlM&t=1m44s broken leg] *[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xtREzkHbfWM#3m47s Survived being thrown off a cliff by Abbas without any injury] *[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jrgqec2sNJ8&t=5m41s Took blows from and killed Moloch, who could easily create massive craters in the ground with a single blow from his mace] *[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6eL0Q4Rofk Took blows from Armand Bouchart] and withstood his fire-bombs for extended periods of time *[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wHhOjLa-erw&t=5m00s Even at an advanced age of 63, he was still capable of performing all these feats.

On top of this, Altaïr canonically swam to shore to escape a blazing ship in the final mission of ''Assassin's Creed: Altaïr's Chronicles'', "[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pmABh4Z3y0Q&t=5m7s Always an End]", when he was unable to proceed to the ship containing his love interest Adha hostage due to falling debris doused in flames.
