'''Topkapı Palace''' was a palace located in [[Constantinople]], being the official and primary residence in the city for the {{wiki|Ottoman Sultans}}. Approximately, the Sultans resided in the palace for around four centuries, from 1465 up until 1856, of their 624-year reign of the [[Ottoman Empire]].

==History==
In the dwindling years of the [[Byzantine Empire]], many of the Imperial palaces laid in ruins, shattered by centuries of fighting and economic collapse. Following the Ottoman conquest, Sultan {{Wiki|Mehmed II}} envisioned a palace at a strategically secure spot atop First Hill, the very tip of the peninsula.<ref name="Revelations">''[[Assassin's Creed: Revelations]]''</ref>

Construction on the Sultan's new palace, then called Yeni Saray (New Palace), initially began in 1459, and concluded nearly a decade later, although every subsequent Sultan would continue to add to the overall complex. However, towards the end of his reign, [[Bayezid II]] relocated his throne to the original Ottoman capital of {{Wiki|Edirne|Adrianople}} following an {{Wiki|1509 Istanbul earthquake|earthquake}}.<ref name="Revelations"/> Prince [[Ahmet]] ordered his confidante [[Hasan Pasha]] to recover a [[Memory Seals|Memory Seal]] from the [[tunnels]] beneath the palace exposed by the tremor.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Recollection]]''</ref>

For many centuries thereafter, Topkapı Palace served as the centerpiece of the Sultan's power, and contained everything the Sultan needed to comfortably oversee the Empire. This included the {{Wiki|Harem}} for raising and educating wives of future royalty, the {{Wiki|Divan}} for the Sultan's meetings with the Sublime Porte, barracks for the Janissaries, and the Sultan's personal residence. During the 18th century, [[Jennifer Scott]] was sold to the Harem.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Forsaken]]''</ref>

Finally in 1856, Sultan Abdülmecid I moved his residence and court to the newly built Dolmabahçe Palace, bringing an end to four centuries of Topkapı Palace's use as the main residence and the powerbase of the Ottoman Sultans.<ref name="Revelations"/>

Following the end of the Ottoman Empire in 1923, Topkapı Palace was transformed by a government decree dated April 3, 1924, into a museum of<nowiki> </nowiki>the imperial era. The Topkapı Palace Museum is administered by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism.<nowiki> </nowiki>The palace complex has hundreds of rooms and chambers, but only the most important are accessible to the public today. The complex is guarded by officials of the ministry as well as armed guards of the Turkish military. The palace includes many fine examples of Ottoman architecture. It contains large collections of porcelain, robes, weapons, shields, armor, Ottoman miniatures, Islamic calligraphic manuscripts and murals, as well as a display of Ottoman treasures and jewelry.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topkap%C4%B1_Palace</ref>

==Trivia==
*As noted in the [[Database]], Bayezid's absence was the reason why the Topkapı Palace was mostly empty of guards during Ezio's stay in Constantinople, despite being a restricted area.
*The use of the name "Topkapı" in the course of ''[[Assassin's Creed: Revelations]]'' is anachronistic; it did not earn this name until the 19th century. In 1511, it would have been called "New Palace" (or "Yeni Sarayı" in Turkish).

'''Alan Rikkin''' (unknown – 2016) was the Chief Executive Officer of [[Abstergo Industries]] and a member of the [[Inner Sanctum of the Templar Order|Inner Sanctum]] of the [[Templars|Templar Order]].<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Revelations]]'' - [[Abstergo Files]]</ref> He held the position of [[Guardians (Templars)|Guardian]] within the Order, answering directly to the [[General of the Cross]].<ref name="ACU">''[[Assassin's Creed: Unity]]''</ref>

==Biography==
In 2000, Rikkin was among those informed by [[Warren Vidic]] that [[Daniel Cross]] had returned to Abstergo's facility in [[Philadelphia]], after Cross had assassinated the [[Mentor (2000)|Mentor]] of the [[Assassins]].<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: The Fall]]''</ref> In 2010, [[Clay Kaczmarek]] was tasked by [[William Miles]] to hack Rikkin's personal computer in the hope of learning more about the Animus project.<ref>''Assassin's Creed: Revelations - [[The Lost Archive]]''</ref>

Rikkin succeeded the previous CEO of Abstergo after their death in January 2012. In a tape, Rikkin's predecessor encouraged him to stay on course after all he had learned from the previous [[Grand Master]]s, and reminded him that the free market would soon collapse, and that he needed to establish the [[New World Order]] before all turned to anarchy.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]'' - [[Rifts]]</ref>

Later that year, Abstergo was hit by a scandal over the testing of their [[New Fluoride]] product; the [[United States]] government threatened to freeze Abstergo's assets, which coupled with the loss of an [[Apple of Eden 2|Apple of Eden]] in the [[DIA satellite accident]], forced them to hasten the completion of the [[Eye-Abstergo]] satellite.<ref name="ACWE">''[[Assassin's Creed]]'' - [[Warren Vidic's email]]</ref>

===Animus Project===
{{Quote|I'm about ready to pull the plug on your Subject 17. So either get me results or get another person into that Animus.|Rikkin giving orders to Warren Vidic.|Assassin's Creed}}
[[File:AC1 Rikkin Report.png|thumb|250px|left|Kilkerman, Rikkin and Liman listening to Vidic's report]]
Rikkin oversaw the [[Animus Project]] supervised by Vidic and [[Lucy Stillman]], reviewing the data obtained from [[Subject 12|Subjects 12]]-16. He became frustrated that it was taking a few days for [[Desmond Miles]] – Abstergo's seventeenth subject in the program – to [[Synchronization|synchronize]] with the [[Assassination (Al Mualim)|memory]] they needed to map the locations of the [[Pieces of Eden]], one of which would replace the Apple needed to power the Eye-Abstergo satellite.<ref name="ACWE" />

Rikkin, [[David Kilkerman]], and [[Henry Liman]] came to the [[Animus Project laboratory]] in [[Rome]] the day after an unsuccessful attack from the Assassins. Vidic had obtained the necessary memory, to which Rikkin responded he would send teams to collect all of them, should anyone else obtain one and cause trouble in the Templars' New World.

[[File:AC1 Rikkin Leaving.png|thumb|250px|right|Rikkin leaving the meeting]]
Rikkin also ordered that Desmond be terminated, but Stillman retorted, saying that they needed him to obtain any more information on the sites from his [[genetic memory]], so Rikkin deferred to her judgment.<ref>''Assassin's Creed''</ref>

On 17 December, Rikkin contacted [[Laetitia England]], after she reported that Desmond Miles had stolen a Precursor power source in Manhattan.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed III]]''</ref>

===Managing Abstergo===
Rikkin became acquainted with [[Olivier Garneau]] (the CCO of [[Abstergo Entertainment]]) and, in 2013, contacted him about his progress regarding the [[Observatory]].<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag]]''</ref>

In 2014, Rikkin sent a message to [[Melanie Lemay]], congratulating her for her role as CCO of Abstergo Entertainment. Because of her hard work, Rikkin offered her a raise and personally stated that he was looking forward to working with her in the future.<ref name="ACU"/>

On 17 October 2015, Rikkin had a conference with [[Isabelle Ardant]]. He was later contacted by [[Álvaro Gramática]] after [[Violet da Costa]] retrieved a [[Shroud of Eden 2|Shroud of Eden]] from the vault under [[Buckingham Palace]] and the [[Phoenix Project]] was accelerated.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Syndicate]]''</ref>

He was later responsible for the abduction of [[Callum Lynch]] and using him to find another [[Apples of Eden|Apple]] via the [[Animus]] with the help of his daughter [[Sophia Rikkin|Sophia]]. However, Callum escaped with the other kidnapped Assassins and went to London, killing Alan and stealing his Apple, venturing into the unknown soon after.

==Personality and characteristics==
{{Quote|You told me she wasn't going to be a problem and here she is stirring up the shit again.|Rikkin to Warren in an e-mail.|Assassin's Creed}}
[[File:ACTF Alan Rikkin.jpg|thumb|150px|left|Alan Rikkin]]
Rikkin could be a rude and vulgar individual. Despite both being members of the Inner Sanctum, his emails to Vidic were often disrespectful and impatient.<ref name="ACWE" /> However, in an email written for him with other Abstergo executives, Rikkin showed the intelligence and charisma necessary to head a company.<ref>''Assassin's Creed'' - [[Emails#Project Lead .239 email|Conference room email]]</ref>

Lucy Stillman once emailed Rikkin, requesting information on a deceased friend and ex-employee, [[Leila Marino]]. The only response she received was an out-of-office notice, despite the fact that Rikkin continued to manage his other emails during the time he was supposedly away, even sending Vidic a message warning the latter to keep Lucy from asking difficult questions.<ref name="ACWE" />

Rikkin was also ignorant of historical facts, proven when he mistook who {{Wiki|Guy Fawkes}} was, believing Fawkes was involved in the [[French Revolution]]. When corrected by [[Caroline Grey]], he snapped at her, claiming "We are making history here, the past is largely irrelevant."<ref>[[James Morse's email]]</ref>

One of the leaders of the modern-day Knights Templar, Alan Rikkin was determined to achieve his orders’ centuries-long goal to gain control over humanity and destroy the Assassin Order. Through [[Callum Lynch]], and the ancestral memories he holds, Rikkin may finally have found the key to the Templar's endgame.<ref name="dna">[https://www.familytreedna.com/assassinscreed/#modal Assassin's Creed DNA]</ref>

==Trivia==
[[File:Alan rikkin business card.jpg|thumb|250px|Alan Rikkin's business card]]
*The production team behind the ''[[Assassin's Creed (film)|Assassin's Creed]]'' movie tweeted Rikkin's business card: by calling the numbers on it, fans would receive a voice message by [[Jeremy Irons]] as Rikkin.
*In ''[[Assassin's Creed 6: Leila]]'', Rikkin is identified by Laetitia England as the Leader of the Templar Order.
*Rikkin was part of the development team for Abstergo’s [[Liberation|''Liberation'']] video game.

'''Jennifer Scott''' (1713 – 1805) was the daughter of [[Edward Kenway]] and [[Caroline Scott-Kenway|Caroline Scott]], the half-sister of [[Haytham Kenway]], and aunt of [[Ratonhnhaké:ton]].

==Biography==
===Early life===
[[File:The End 10.png|thumb|250px|left|Jennifer meeting her father for the first time]]
During her father's travels in the [[Caribbean]], Jennifer lived with her mother in [[Bristol]]. Born after her father's departure, Jennifer was unknown to Edward, but following the death of her mother in 1720, made arrangements to travel to [[Great Inagua]] to be with him. After meeting, they set sail aboard the ''[[Jackdaw]]'', sharing a conversation over a variety of subjects.<ref name="AC4">''[[Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag]]''</ref>

Returning to England, Jennifer soon came to live with her father, his second wife [[Tessa Kenway|Tessa Stephenson-Oakley]] and their son Haytham in [[Queen Anne's Square]] in Bloomsbury, [[London]].<ref name="ACF">''[[Assassin's Creed: Forsaken]]''</ref> However, she refused to use the Kenway surname, saying that she had been raised solely by her mother in her early years and would thus keep her mother's maiden name.<ref name="AC4" />

She was renowned by the noblemen of London for her great beauty, and for her "smokey" stare, though Haytham thought of it to be more akin to a scowl, due in part to her resentment of her father for not training her in the ways of the [[Assassins]]. As a result, she was often cold towards her half-brother, and railed against her father's plans to marry her to [[Reginald Birch]], one of the Kenway's senior property managers.<ref name="ACF" />

===Kidnapping===
After discovering Birch was a [[Templars|Templar]] and informing her father, five [[mercenaries]] kidnapped her after storming [[Kenway Mansion|the house]], killing her father and taking his [[Edward Kenway's journal|journal]]. Birch had her sold to [[Turkey|Turkish]] [[Slavery|slavers]], while pinning the crime on Edward's valet [[Jack Digweed]] and taking Haytham under his wing.<ref name="ACF" />

Jennifer became a concubine in [[Topkapı Palace]], and by 1757, she was transported to [[Damascus]], to serve under the [[Ottoman Empire|Ottoman]] governor in charge, {{Wiki|As'ad Pasha al-Azm}}. However, since Jennifer was in her mid-40s at the time, she was too old to be a concubine, working instead as a servant. Ultimately, Haytham and his loyal friend, [[Jim Holden]], infiltrated the palace to find and rescue her.<ref name="ACF" />

After informing Haytham that Birch killed their father, they launched an attack on his chateau near [[Troyes]], [[France]]. Jennifer attacked Birch in his office, and despite him holding a knife to her throat, she managed to throw him onto a sword pinned in the door, ending his life.<ref name="ACF" />

===Return to London===
Jennifer returned to London to take hold of the mansion in Queen Anne's Square, and while she and Haytham stayed in touch, their correspondence was distant since neither of them knew each other very well. Jennifer was also somewhat disappointed that her half-brother opted to remain a Templar after dealing with Birch. She would go on to live a solitary life in London, refusing to speak with people after the ordeal she went through in her youth, and eventually became a spinster.<ref name="ACF" /> Nevertheless she was saddened to learn of her brother's death at the hands of his son.

[[File:Jennifer and Elise.jpg|250px|thumb|Jennifer giving the pendant to Élise]]
In April 1788 Jennifer met [[Élise de la Serre]] – who was using the false identity of Yvonne Albertine – and her maid [[Hélène]], who had been sent to infiltrate the house to steal [[Haytham Kenway's letters|letters]] that Haytham had written during his time as [[Grand Master]] of the [[Colonial Rite of the Templar Order|Colonial Rite]]. Jennifer discovered Élise's true identity, and after a confrontation she agreed to hand over the letters, hoping that Élise would gain wisdom from his words and see that the Assassins and Templars could unite in their goals.<ref name="ACUbook">[[Assassin's Creed: Unity (novel)|''Assassin's Creed: Unity'' novel]]</ref>

She also gifted Élise with a jeweled Templar pendant that Haytham had sent her, but the two women parted on bad terms, as Jennifer refused to take part in [[Assassin-Templar War|the struggle]] between Assassins and Templars, as it had already claimed most of her family.<ref name="ACUbook" />

Later in life, Jennifer would occasionally propose that Assassins and Templars should reconcile,<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Underworld]]''</ref> until her death sometime in 1805.<ref name="ACS" />

==Trivia==
*The dress Jennifer is seen wearing at the [[Theatre Royal]] is nearly identical to the one she wore as a young girl, differing only in color. It also resembled the dress worn by her late mother in the latter's concept art.

'''Callum "Cal" Lynch''' (born 1979)<ref name=birth/> is a [[Modern times|modern day]] descendant of the 15th century [[Spanish Assassins|Spanish Assassin]] [[Aguilar de Nerha]].<ref>[https://www.yahoo.com/movies/assassins-creed-first-look-heres-michael-127715456582.html Yahoo: ''Assassin's Creed' First Look: Here's Michael Fassbender as Brand New Character (Exclusive)'']</ref> He is also the son of [[Joseph Lynch|Joseph]] and [[Mary Lynch]].

In 2016, he was apparently executed, but survived with the help of [[Abstergo Industries]], who captured Callum to have him relive the memories of Aguilar in an [[Animus]], in an attempt to find an [[Apples of Eden|Apple of Eden]]. Through reliving Aguilar's memories, the Apple was discovered to be buried with [[Christopher Columbus]] and was soon retrieved by [[Alan Rikkin]] and other [[Templars]].

Soon after the Apple was found, Callum and captured [[Assassins]] including [[Moussa]] and [[Lin]] escaped from Abstergo Industries. Later, while Alan was giving a speech, Callum killed him and retrieved the Apple of Eden, afterwards rejoining Moussa and Lin and accepting his place as an Assassin.

==Biography==
As a child, Lynch was forced to watch his mother's murder. He has been on the run ever since, living on the fringes of society. This shrouded his heritage from him.<ref>[https://www.familytreedna.com/assassinscreed/#inside Assassin's Creed DNA]</ref>

He grew up to be a criminal himself and was scheduled to be executed after he killed a pimp. However, the [[Templars]] learned of his [[Assassins|Assassin]] ancestry and faked his death so that they could access de Nerha's [[Genetic memory|memories]] during the [[Spanish Inquisition]] and his interaction with an [[Apples of Eden|Apple of Eden]].<ref>[http://www.gamesradar.com/ive-seen-the-first-15-minutes-of-the-assassins-creed-movie-and-its-exactly-what-i-wanted/ Gamesradar: ''I've seen the first 15 minutes of the Assassin's Creed movie and it's exactly what I wanted'']</ref>

Callum awoke the following day at an [[Abstergo Industries|Abstergo]] facility in [[Madrid]] for use in [[Animus]] experiments.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xLBZ1_J1xvM YouTube: Assassin’s Creed Official Trailer HD 20th Century FOX]</ref> Prolonged exposure caused the [[Bleeding Effect]] to manifest in Lynch, making him see images of Aguilar in the present day.<ref>[https://twitter.com/assassinscreed/status/757613964817674240 Twitter: @assassinscreed]</ref>

==Trivia==
*"Callum" is a masculine Gaelic name meaning "dove" in [[Scotland|Scottish]] and [[Ireland|Irish]] Gaelic, continuing the trend of ''[[Assassin's Creed (series)|Assassin's Creed]]'' protagonists having avian-themed names.
*In the scene with the bulletin board showing Callum's family tree, the photograph of a young Callum has his name written as "Cal", with the "A" written as the [[Assassin insignia]].
