'''Cain''' was the first of [[Adam]] and [[Eve]]'s two sons. He was thought to have murdered his younger brother [[Abel]] out of jealousy. It was later discovered that Cain killed Abel for a [[Piece of Eden]] that he held. Cain was also the founder of the [[Templars |Templar Order]].<ref name="CAIN">''[[Assassin's Creed II]]'' - [[Glyphs]] - Puzzle #6 "Brothers"</ref>

==Biography==
Cain was the first son of Adam and Eve, two [[Humans|human]] descendants of the [[First Civilization]]. Cain killed Abel to steal the Piece of Eden in his possession. His homicide was the first in recorded human history.<ref name="CAIN"/>

Cain's mark, which he was given for killing Abel, became the symbol of the Templars, which they work under to collect more Pieces of Eden. [[Subject 16]] also referenced quotes from the Church of [[Jesus Christ]] of Latter Day Saints' "Pearl of Great Price" scripture.

The hidden message "Templar texts adapted by Mr. Smith" is written in Morse code in a Glyph sequence (Mr. Smith being an allusion to [[Wikipedia:Joseph Smith|Joseph Smith]], the 19th-century preacher who founded the LDS Church), implying that the [http://mormon.org Mormon] or LDS version of Cain and Abel is more accurate, or at the very least, an accurate reflection of the Templar's version of events.

The relatively unique title of "[[wikipedia:Master Mahan|Master Mahan]]" is mentioned as the title Cain gave himself for being the master of the great secret. <ref name="CAIN"/>
