'''Jing Lang''' (1686 – 1717) was a [[China|Chinese]] [[Templars|Templar]], [[Piracy|pirate]], and target of [[Edward Kenway]] in the early 18th century.<br />
<br />
The daughter of a rebel, Jing Lang grew up fighting. As a young woman, she developed a talent for negotiation and a knack for languages, as well as a taste for discovery. She broke the ties with her family to marry the son of a Qing dynasty general her father opposed, and served as their military adviser. Ultimately performing so well, she was granted a diplomatic post. Over the next decade, she traveled the world, developing a reputation for brutality that preceded her in most conflicts. Using piracy as a cover for her political activities, she banded with any who might serve her ultimate desire for negotiated order. <br />
<br />
In the [[West Indies]] of 1717, she fell under the interest of a rumored cache of treasure, and feigned a romantic relationship with one-time [[Assassin]], [[Vance Travers]], to gain access to it. Under the suspicion of Jing being a Templar, Vance's brother, [[Upton Travers|Upton]], ordered Edward Kenway to have them both killed. Edward shortly assassinated her to collect a Templar key.<br />
<br />
In 2013, her [[Genetic memory|genetic memories]] were used as an Animi Avatar by the [[Abstergo Entertainment|entertainment branch]] of the Templar company [[Abstergo Industries]], to influence the general public via the [[Animus]] game console, under the title of the [[Orchid]].<br />
<br />
==Trivia==<br />
*Jing is the {{Wiki|pinyin}} transliteration of multiple Chinese surnames, the exact surname in this case being unknown. Likewise, Lang is a transliteration of various homophonic Mandarin words. However, the title of her Animi Avatar indicates that her name may perhaps be 蘭 ({{Wiki|Simplified Chinese characters|simplified}}: 兰) meaning "orchid," though it is properly transliterated as ''Lán''.<br />
