Georgios Kostas (unknown – 1511) was a member of the Byzantine Rite of the Templar Order with a reputation for incredible strength and brutality. Inspired by a desire for global recognition, Georgios left Greece to participate in a tournament series of fights in Thrace. After years of successful battles, he captured the attention of the Templars, who offered him the chance to work for them and increase his fame. In 2012, his genetic memories were used as an Animi Avatar by the Templar company Abstergo Industries, for the training of their Animus recruits, under the title of the Champion.
