Considering Assassin's Creed is basically Shown Their Work, The Video Game, research is probably your primary friend here. Not so much that it detracts from the narrative part, but you'll probably want accurate making of the places, in their times, and a really good idea of what life is life there, so that the small details ring historically accurate.
Your better bet might be to make the stereotypes part of the story, because people living there are going to have opinions formed about others, most of them based in bad information. You're probably going to have a harder time finding someone who doesn't have a stereotypical belief somewhere.
