Read more about The Frye Twins at: Wikipedia Official Site: Ubisoft Jacob Frye and Evie Frye, collectively known as the Frye twins, are a duo of sibling characters from Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed video game franchise. They first appear as the player character of the 2015 video game Assassin's Creed Syndicate, in which they are portrayed through performance capture by Paul Amos (Jacob) and Victoria Atkin (Evie). Within the series' alternate historical setting, both characters are members of the Assassin Brotherhood (a fictional organization inspired by the real-life Order of Assassins that is dedicated to protecting peace and freedom) active in Victorian England at the onset of the Second Industrial Revolution. In Syndicate, the twins travel to London to rebuild the local Assassins branch, which was previously decimated by their mortal enemies, the Templar Order, and liberate the city from the Templars' control. The twins accomplish their victory over the Templars by extending their influence over the city's criminal elements and rallying support from its underclass against the rampant inequality under Templar rule. The Frye twins have made further appearances in other games or media with varying levels of importance. Both Jacob and Evie have received a generally positive reception from critics, with praise directed at their conflicting personalities, which is reflected in their individual gameplay style. Evie in particular has drawn unanimous approval for her status as a female protagonist in the Assassin's Creed main series games, and has generated wider discussions about gender representation within the franchise since her first appearance. The Frye twins are the main characters of the 2015 video game Assassin's Creed Syndicate. Jacob and Evie have individual skill trees which may be personalised by the player. Both characters play similarly, though they each have distinct skills which incentivizes a specific playstyle: Evie's unique abilities are advantageous for a stealth-centric play style, while Jacob's provide more advantages in open combat, such as a counterattack that guarantees a headshot against enemy targets. Their divergent gameplay styles are reflected in their personalities: Evie is more reverent towards the Assassins' traditions and behaves like an archetypal member of the Brotherhood who discreetly dispatches their targets from the shadows, while Jacob is more laidback and eager to openly confront the Templars in the frontlines by recruiting the criminal elements of London to his cause and leading them against Templar-backed targets.
The Frye Twins has not been a contender in any CBUB matches.
