History gauging!

So this fine fellow is a historian! This means he will probably recognize those famous faces from time long past. In addition some of said historical figures might or might not factor into the Templar/Assassin war going on, so let's all introduce each other!

AWESOME. Yeah my Japanese history outside of a smattering of the Edo period and Meiji restoration is painfully underdeveloped.

Yeaaaaah. I USED TO FEEL EMBARRASSED BY HOW LITTLE I KNEW. That was in an interview for grad school that the dude did that (and I think he felt a little embarrassed because I knew about it). Basically, in undergrad, you're forced to take maybe two courses outside your field ... and the rest is in your field. Even then! And by time you're in Ph.D., you're not expected to remember it.

So, you could easily have him be "oh, yeah, I ... took a class ... a long time ago in that," and no one could fault you because that's actually accurate!
