His main outfit consists of a thick purple and black helmet with a skull shaped visor, hiding his face behind it at almost all times and showing nothing but empty blue pupils. In the 6th Singularity, it is given that he resides within the Holy Shrine of Azrael (アズライールの聖廟, Azurai-ru no Seibyou ?), a mausoleum situated in a mountainous region somewhere to the north of Jerusalem. The skull-masked swordsman was a living legend, the abyss of assassins, whom no one has ever witnessed. It is said that he, who sent many Assassins to oblivion, remained in the shadows until the destruction of the assassin order. After bringing the hammer down upon fools who strayed from the doctrine of the order, the skull-masked swordsman would erase anyone who had witnessed him from the world. To lay eyes upon his skull mask meant that one’s life was over. He chose to fight head-on with a greatsword rather than hidden weapons, in honor of his solemn duty to assassinate assassins. He took their heads in forgiveness of their sin, and passed down hope to the next Old Man of the Mountain. Whether that leader suffered from a corrupt spirit or declining skills, such a person must not bear the name of the Old Man of the Mountain. Namely, the corruption of the sect’s leader, the current Old Man of the Mountain, would mean the decay of the sect. Thus, for the preservers the doctrine to lose themselves to the desires of man was to the Old Man of the Mountain all the more a sacrilege against Allah. Even though the sect persisted in righteous accordance to the doctrine of Allah, it was inevitable that those avowed to carry it forth would come to sin in the eyes of Man. He who forged the name of "the Old Man of the Mountain" elected to live as an observer who would enact judgment upon the rot and the deviations of the sect. There was within the sect of the Hashashin not a single witness who could attest to the existence of the original Hassan all of those who encountered him met their end. Proof that he in fact existed is nowhere to be found-except in the certainty that if ever he who takes the seat of Hassan-i-Sabbah strays from his path, there shall come an executioner to part him from his head.
Even so, his actual identity was unknown even to the eighteen individuals who came to inherit his titles. He is given the nickname of King Hassan (キングハサン, Kingu Hasan ?) by Ritsuka Fujimaru, to which he takes a liking. He is also known as First Hassan, as the first to hold the title of Hassan-i-Sabbah and the founder of the Hashashin where he is considered to be both the first and the last "Old Man". The Servant's True Name is generally regarded as "the Old Man of the Mountain". 2.2.1 Convergent Singularity: Lilim Harlot.2.1.3 Nahui Mictlan: Golden Sea of Trees Travelogue.
