'''The Boarding of the Black Ivory''' was a [[genetic memory]].<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed Roleplaying Game]] – [[Legacy of the Brotherhood]]''</ref>

==Description==
''Plowing through [[Caribbean Sea|Caribbean waters]] aboard the ''[[Jackdaw]]'', [[Edward Kenway|Edward]] and [[Adéwalé]] are in pursuit of the ''[[Black Ivory]]'', a [[ship]] of the [[Royal African Company]]. The infamous ship carries hundreds of [[Slavery|slaves]] in its cargo hold. The chase has been going on for hours, and Edward and Adéwalé await the right moment to storm the ship and free its prisoners.''

==Intro==
A spray of saltwater fills the air from the ''Jackdaw''{{'}}s mighty bow as she cuts through the sea, and one of the crew shouts, "With this wind, we should reach them lily-livered scallywags before dawn." The darkness of the night will help with the boarding.

==Key objectives==
<tabber>
|-|1 - BOARDING!=
The crew of the ''Black Ivory'' is prepared to resist boarding, and their [[captain]], [[Tom Phillips]], is on the deck, barking orders. Boarding the ship shouldn't be too difficult.

As the ''Jackdaw'' pulls alongside the enemy vessel, the men begin to [[Sea shanties|sing]] as they get into position for the assault. The [[Piracy|pirate]] song, a hymn of freedom, reaches the ship's holds, and soon, the muffled sound of the voices of dozens of slaves echoes through the ''Black Ivory''. Though superior in number, it is with terror on their faces that the hired men of the Royal African Company draw their [[rifle]]s and [[sword]]s.
;Challenges
*''[[Musket]] Shots:'' As the two vessels come alongside, the men of the Royal African Company open fire on the ''Jackdaw''. All the Witnesses on the main deck must make a Reaction check.
*''Jump from the Rigging:'' A spectacular way to board the enemy ship is to jump holding a line from the ''Jackdaw''{{'}}s masts towards the ''Black Ivory''{{'}}s main deck.
*''Gangplanks:'' As soon as the two ships are abreast, the crew throws out planks connecting the two ships.
;Weaknesses
*''Ram the Black Ivory (major):'' If the Witnesses decide to ram the ''Black Ivory'' with the ''Jackdaw'', they overcome any Challenge made to complete the Boarding! Key Objective. However, this damages the ''Black Ivory'' and from now on any Approach check made to maneuver the ship requires 1 additional Raise.
|-|2 - COMMANDEER THE BLACK IVORY=
Once the boarding of the ''Black Ivory'' has begun, the battle becomes bloody. The ferocity and experience of the pirate crew faces the numerical superiority of the Royal African Company.

Suddenly, lights illuminate the dark ocean in the distance. The unmistakable sound of a [[cannon]] volley fills the air. Plumes of water from the missed shots splash the deck of both ships. They were damned close, making it immediately clear that a new enemy is closing in!

The approaching enemy vessel is His Majesty's Hired Vessel ''[[Royal Bounty]]'', a [[British Empire|British]] [[privateer]] with tremendous firepower. Its captain, "{{Wiki|Keelhauling}}" [[Jeffrey Bloodworth|Jeff]], is a [[Templars|Templar]] who hunts down pirates threatening the British slave trade. Aware of the movements of the [[West Indies Brotherhood of Assassins|Assassin Brotherhood]] in the Caribbean Sea, he has used the ''Black Ivory'' as bait in order to eliminate Edward Kenway and Adéwalé once and for all.

The Witnesses must quickly seize the Black Ivory before the guns of the Royal Bounty shred both ships to pieces.
;Challenges
*''Revive the Crew Spirit:'' After a moment of uncertainty, the fighting resumes. The sound of swords and [[pistol]] shots, shouts of encouragement and curses fill the silence of the night again, but a sense of grim fatalism envelops all the combatants. Raising the spirits of the Witnesses' crew requires the Witnesses to make an Approach check with 1 Raise.
*''Fighting the Mariners:'' Despite a shattered morale, the sailors of the ''Black Ivory'' fight on, as they have little alternative. The Witnesses must make at least 2 separate Approach checks to break their spirit. If the Revive the ''Crew Spirit'' Challenge was successfully overcome, any Approach check made to complete this Challenge has 1 Free Raise.
;Weaknesses
*''Break the Chains (major):'' If the slaves in the hold are freed while the assault on the ''Black Ivory'' is still underway, the ship's crew will be quickly overwhelmed, leading to their surrender in short order. In this case, the Witnesses achieve the current Key Objective.
|-|3 - FACE THE ENGLISH SHIP=
Once the Witnesses have taken control of the ''Black Ivory'', dealing with the ''Royal Bounty'' becomes the pressing concern. Using both the ''Jackdaw'' and the ''Black Ivory'', it may be possible to deal with the superior firepower of the new threat.

You see the ''Black Ivory''{{'}}s captain, Tom Phillips, holding off two pirates with his [[cutlass]] and pistol, held in his [[Dual-wielding|offhand]] like a [[club]]. You watch him as he begins barking the first few words of what surely would have been a biting challenge before they choke in his throat. Behind him, one of his men hits him on the head with a {{Wiki|Fishing gaff|gaff}}, knocking him unconscious—the surviving crew members of the ''Black Ivory'' have had enough of the bloodshed. The battle is over! However, your celebrations are interrupted by yet more cannon shots, fired high, shearing away the ''Jackdaw''{{'}}s nest.
;Special
Until this Key Objective is completed, at the end of each Approach check, the Witnesses must make an additional Reaction check due to the ''Royal Bounty''{{'}}s superior firepower.
;Challenges
*''Take Position:'' It is necessary to bring the two ships into a favorable position, for example by flanking the enemy ship and moving out of the line of fire of its cannons. This requires at least 2 separate Approach checks with 1 Raise.
*''Fire Away:'' If both ships are in position, a well-aimed salvo of gunfire from both vessels may prove enough to inflict significant damage to the ''Royal Bounty''. If the previous Challenge was completed successfully, any Approach check made to complete this Challenge has 1 Free Raise.
;Weaknesses
*''[[Eagle Vision]] (minor):'' Thanks to the supernatural capabilities of the [[Assassins]], the Witnesses can anticipate where cannon volleys will hit. If they employ their Eagle Vision Skill, the Witnesses can face the ''Take Position'' Challenge with no Raise.
</tabber>
<tabber>
|-|4 - KILL CAPTAIN "KEELHAULING" JEFF=
The Witnesses have reached the enemy ship. It's time to eliminate the Templar threat once and for all.

As the vessels cut through the water and get closer and closer to the enemy ship, you see a glow. For a moment, you wonder what strange new weapon this might be. Has the ''Royal Bounty'' caught fire? But no, it's a golden glow enveloping a figure on the [[England|English]] vessel. What if the Templar Captain has got his hands on a [[Piece of Eden]]?
;Challenges
*''Jump from the Rigging:'' The only way to get aboard the ''Royal Bounty'' is to jump holding a line from the masts and launch towards the enemy deck.
*''Force Shield:'' The shield around Captain Jeff is an [[Isu]] marvel. It is seemingly impenetrable, requiring at least 3 separate Approach checks with 1 Raise.
*''Killing Blow:'' Once the force shield is eliminated, it is time to end the Templar.
;Weaknesses
*''Powder Keg (minor):'' Detonating a keg of [[gunpowder]] at the right moment can overcome the ''Force Shield'' Challenge.
