'''Edward Thatch'''<ref name="Thatch">[https://twitter.com/DarbyMcDevitt/status/316277443885412354 ''Darby McDevitt comments on Blackbeard's true name'']</ref> (c. 1680 – 1718), more commonly known as '''Edward Teach''' or the alias '''Blackbeard''', was an infamous pirate captain who sailed the [[Caribbean|West Indies]] and the American Colonies during the early 18th century, on the ship named ''Queen Anne's Revenge''. <br />
<br />
Thatch met his fate in May 1718 at the hands of Royal Navy Lieutenant Robert Maynard and his crew.<ref name="OutsideXBox">[http://www.outsidexbox.com/articles/2013-03-04-assassins-creed-iv-black-flag-creative-director-speaks OutsideXBox: ''Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag Creative Director Speaks'']</ref><br />

==Trivia==<br />
*Lead Writer [[Darby McDevitt]] stated on his Twitter feed that the developers would be using the name Edward Thatch over the more commonly accepted Edward Teach, when referring to Blackbeard in ''Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag''.<ref name="Thatch"/><br />
