Ezio Auditore- Assassin's Creed

Ezio Auditore, with his hood drawn over his face, his swishing cloak, with his dual blades, and his deadly walk as he sneaks past the guards, has almost become iconic now. Not only is he a great character, his character design is also one of the best I have seen in a long time. His cloak looks great, he has a ton of gadgets and weapons up his sleeve (literally), and he's really agile and acrobatic. What more do you want in a protagonist?
