For a time, he also sought to find the [[Isu]]'s hidden [[Temple (Isu)\|Temples]] to recover any [[Piece of Eden\|artifacts]] inside, though it was a passing interest secondary to his main objective.

			In 1758, a failed attempt to [[poison]] Haiti's colonists ended in Mackandal's capture, before the [[Templars]] arranged for his public execution. His death led to the collapse of the Saint-Domingue Brotherhood, which would not be revived until decades later under [[Eseosa]]'s leadership.

	Later, Mackandal became acquainted with [[Antó]], an Assassin affiliated with the [[Maroon rebellion]] that operated in the [[Caribbean\|West Indies]]. In 1738, Antó offered to aid Mackandal by supplying him with recruits, but also called for peace between the Maroons and the [[France\|French]] colonists of Saint-Domingue. Mackandal rejected his aid, claiming that his Brotherhood was strong enough, and belittled Antó and his Mentor [[Ah Tabai]], believing both to be weak and prone to compromise. He also warned Antó against sending his Assassins, whether to assist or oppose him, assuring him that they would die either way.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Rogue]]'' – [[War Letters]]: "My Faithful Acolytes"</ref>		Later, Mackandal became acquainted with [[Antó]], an Assassin affiliated with the [[Maroon rebellion]] that operated in the [[Caribbean\|West Indies]].

	In 1732, François Mackandal became acquainted with [[Agaté]], [[Baptiste]] and [[Jeanne]], three ~~[[Slavery\|~~slaves]] that labored at a [[plantation]] at Saint-Domingue. Mackandal took all three under his wing and taught them to read and write, also instructing Agaté and Baptiste on how to craft [[poison]] and use weapons, in preparation of their [[Initiation into the Assassin Order\|induction]] into the Brotherhood.

	~~At some point~~, Mackandal became acquainted with [[Antó]], an Assassin affiliated with the ~~Maroons~~ that operated in the [[Caribbean\|West Indies]]. In 1738, Antó offered to aid Mackandal by supplying him with recruits, but also called for peace between the Maroons and the French colonists of Saint-Domingue. Mackandal rejected his aid, claiming that his Brotherhood was strong enough, and belittled Antó and his Mentor [[Ah Tabai]], believing both to be weak and prone to compromise. He also warned Antó against sending his Assassins, whether to assist ~~him~~ or oppose him, assuring him that they would die either way.<ref ~~name="ACRG"~~>''[[Assassin's Creed: Rogue]]''</ref>		Later, Mackandal became acquainted with [[Antó]], an Assassin affiliated with the [[Maroon rebellion]] that operated in the [[Caribbean\|West Indies]].

	That same year, Mackandal officially inducted Agaté and Baptiste into the Brotherhood, following which he and his pupils escaped the plantation; Jeanne was left behind, as she refused to ally herself with the Assassins.

	By 1751, Mackandal owned the [[Voynich manuscript]] and the [[Precursor box]], the latter of which he had relieved from [[Bastienne Josèphe]].
