=[[Louis XVI of France]]=
On 6 August 1792, a crowd gathered at the Champ de Mars once more to demand the abolition of the monarchy. Fearing attempts to derail the revolution, radical Jacobins and Cordeliers took refuge at the Hôtel de Ville along with 7,000 troops and took over the Paris Commune. In response, Louis strengthened the defences at the Tuileries from 2,000 to 3,000 men, mainly composed of his Swiss Guard.[23] When the grounds of the Tuileries were invaded on 10 August by 20,000 revolutionaries, the angry crowd sought to kill the royal family, but Louis had seemingly predicted the situation and fled in advance with his family.[22] They took refuge with the Legislative Assembly in the Salle du Manège,[24] where Louis was arrested soon after and stripped of his power,[3] before being imprisoned in the Temple with his family.[25] During the storming of the Tuileries, the young artillery officer Napoleon Bonaparte stole the temple key, while copies of the King's correspondence with Mirabeau were found in the iron cabinet and made public by the Templars.[19] The iron cabinet also housed a register with the names of Assassins and Templars, though this document went unnoticed by the invaders and was eventually destroyed.[REF ARM] On 21 September, France was proclaimed a republic.[1]
 
[...]
 
Throughout his life, Louis displayed indecisiveness and shyness, and was mild-mannered, most likely having taken these traits from his childhood tutors. Despite his good intentions of helping the French people, his lack of a strong personality meant that he was unable to exert power in the field of politics, of which he had little knowledge.[1] He was also frequently influenced by his close associates and his wife.[21] It is believed that he was clinically depressed, and he often sought refuge from his duties by indulging in hobbies.[1] Louis XVI was a great lover of locks and clocks, preferring to spend more time in his workshop than with his queen. He also studied extensively, being a keen student of science, with a passion for geography and the navy, as well as a fluent English speaker.[REF ARM] In 2014, the Abstergo Entertainment researcher Robert Fraser said of Louis, "Very mild mannered (i.e., boring). His speech to the Estates-General almost put me to sleep".[1]
 
 
=[[World War I]]=
The countries envolved signed an armistice on 11 November 1918, ending the war.[REF ARM]
 
 
The day following the armistice, painter Claude Monet gifted a selection of his ''{{Wiki|Water Lilies (Monet series)|Water Lilies}}'' to the French government as a symbol of peace. These paintings would later be installed at the {{Wiki|Musée de l'Orangerie}} a few months after his death in 1927.[REF ARM]
 
During the war, the French adopted the {{Wiki|Centaurea cyanus|cornflower}} as {{Wiki|Bleuet de France|symbol}} of remembrance and solidarity with the veterans and victims of war, as it was one of the few flowers that grew on battlefields riddled with shells. The [[poppy]] serves the same {{Wiki|Remembrance poppy|symbolic}} function in England.[REF ARM]
 
 
=[[Storming of the Bastille]]=
On 12 July 1789, Swiss courtier and military officer {{Wiki|Pierre Victor, baron de Besenval de Brünstatt|Marquis de Besenval}} withdrew his troops from Paris in the face of government inaction[REF ARM] in suppressing the popular riots,[REF WIKI] which culminated two days later. On 14 July, a delegation of the National Assembly was invited to the Bastille to discuss terms with the governor. However, the protesters outside had become restless and managed to cut the chains holding the raised drawbridge.[2] The fortress was attacked by outraged Frenchmen joined by the Templar Élise de la Serre, who was searching for Arno. The general of the Bastille, de Launay, was killed by the mob; his head was hanged on a pike, which served as the start of the French Revolution.[3] During the havoc, Arno and Bellec used the opportunity to make their escape. The novelist Donatien Alphonse François, Marquis de Sade was also a prisoner, but had been transferred shortly before the building fell to the mob.[1]
 
In 1789, the Marquis de Besenval was imprisoned, wrongly accused of having instigated the burning of Paris and the massacre of its inhabitants.[REF ARM]
 
 
=[[Palais Bourbon]]=
After the French Revolution broke out, the Palais Bourbon was nationalized,[REF DB] and it was used first as a revolutionary prison, and later as the {{Wiki|École Polytechnique}}. On 21 January 1798, it began functioning as the home to the legislative Council of Five Hundred.[REF ARM] Several members of the Templar Order were able to join the Council and used their influence to attempt to continue the Reign of Terror. In response, the Assassin Council of the French Brotherhood had Arno Dorian kill the Templars, curtailing their influence.[2]
 
In January 2007, the tricolour flag was first brought into the National Assembly.[REF ARM]
 
 
=[[Tuileries Palace|Tuileries Gardens]]=
The original palace was built in 1564 under orders of Catherine de' Medici, widow of King [[Henry II of France]],[REF ARM] who found the Louvre too small to serve as the royal palace.[1] She was keen to express her Florentine heritage with the palace, using Italian Renaissance style in the architecture. [REF ARM] The Tuileries were later united with the Louvre by Henry IV.[1] In 1664, King Louis XIV had landscape architect {{Wiki|André Le Nôtre}} redesign the gardens, as he had done with [[Palace of Versailles|Versailles]] previously.[REF ARM]
 
Over the centuries, the Tuileries' garden would become much like an amusement park,[1] the highlight of which came on 27 August 1783 when physicist and chemist Jacques Charles led the world's first manned hydrogen balloon flight, accompannied by aeronauts and engineers {{Wiki|Robert brothers|Anne-Jean and Nicolas-Louis Robert}}.[REF ARM]
 
During the 1871 Paris Commune, the palace burned down.[REF ARM]

The course of the 18th Century saw the [[British Empire]] become the [[Earth|world]]'s leading colonial power, with [[France]] and [[Spain]] as its primary rivals.

=[[Mithras]]=

Mithras, an evolution of the Persian sun god[REF MIN] Mithra, was a god worshipped by ancient Romans as a form of Roman paganism.[REF WIKI] Mithras was often depicted slaying a bull, and often had on a Phrygian cap[1, MIN] and Iranian trousers to emphasize his Eastern origins. His festival was celebrated on 25 December.[REF MIN]
For a handful of coin, "Dancers" can be employed to distract guards and interfere with ongoing fights. They might also have some incredible stories of their own to tell, if only you'd bother to listen.


The cult of Mithras appeared in Rome at the end of the 1st century CE, and spread throughout the Roman Empire, with several temples being built across the provinces.[REF MIN] The province of Brittania, had at least two such {{Wiki|mithraeum}}, one in [[London|Londinium]][1] and another in [[Winchester|Venta Belgarum]].[Impaling the Seax] After being abandoned for numerous centuries following the Roman exodus of Britannia in the 5th century, these temples were subsequently used by a faction of the Order of the Ancients, who worshipped the god and practiced its beliefs.[1+Impaling the Seax]

But remember to bring a bit of coin if you want them to fight alongside you, as these [[Piracy|pirates]] won't risk their lives for free.


In the Middle Ages, the Levantine Assassin Mentor Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad noted in his codex the similarities between Mithra and figures of other belief systems such as Jesus of Nazareth, Horus, and Dionysos. He postulated that these stories shared a common source.[2]

It was established in 1852 and operated in the city of [[Lens]] until it was nationalized in 1946,[REF WIKI] with its main building being later transformed into the [[Faculty of Sciences]] of the {{Wiki|University of Artois}}. Besides mining, the company also operated with construction, building not only the housing estates for its employees, but also many amenities in the city such as a school, a clinic and a {{Wiki|fr:Église Saint-Théodore de Lens|church}}.[REF MIN]


In 1960, then operating under the name of ''Groupe de Lens-Liévin'',[REF WIKI] the company closed operations at the [[Lens mining site number 9]], transferring the workers into the construction of the [[Stade Bollaert-Delelis|Bollaert-Delelis stadium]] with assistance from [[Abstergo Industries]], who used such operations as a cover for their investigations on a lost [[Templars|Templar]] treasure in the region. Unbeknownst to both companies, miner [[Henri Mulio]] had already located and hidden the treasure by then,[REF MIN] which would only be recovered by his great-grandson[REF INTERVIEW] [[Simon Mulio]] in the 2020s.[REF MIN]
Even after its defeat in the War of the Spanish Succession, the 18th century was nevertheless one of prosperity for the Spanish Empire, as their trade reputation grew steadily under Bourbon oversight, and continued to grow at an extraordinary rate until the 1780s.

==References==
[[Piracy|Pirates]]: Criminals on the open sea who use coercion, intimidation and violence to rob innocent people of their cargo and transport. The term pirate is a catch-all and may be used generally to refer to all who perform acts of larceny on the open ocean. Pirates have been a problem since the advent of long-distance ocean travel; every age has seen its share of pirates, and every age has cursed their name and romanticized their cause. During the so-called "[[Golden Age of Piracy]]" (roughly 1650 to 1725), the majority of pirates were from the [[United Kingdom|British Isles]]. Most were young men in their 20s and almost all had already gained some experience as sailors prior to falling into piracy.

Buccaneers: Though often used as a synonym for Pirates now, the term Buccaneer refers more specifically to a group of pirates who lived and operated in the [[Caribbean|West Indies]] in the middle of the 17th century. Best known for attacking settlements and fortifications on land in large groups, the Buccaneers derived their name from the [[France|French]] Boucanier -- an instrument used for smoking strips of meat over an open fire, a favorite sort of sustenance for these terrestrial pirates.

Privateers: Non-commissioned sailors who attack and rob, having been given a Letter of Marque by their King or a royal official such as a Governor. Thus the distance between a Pirate and a Privateer is but a hair's breath of difference -- Pirates simply sail for one [[Monarchy|monarch]] fewer.

==History==
|-|Taíno=
First built during the 10th centry CE,[REF WIKI] the original church was destroyed by the Spanish[REF MIN] during the {{Wiki|Thirty Years' War}}. Though rebuilt in 1776,[REF WIKI] the relentless bombing of the city during [[World War I]] would once again reduce the church to rubble, along with over 98% of Lens. After the war, it was rebuilt with the assistance of [[Abstergo Industries]], who used the reconstruction effort as a pretext to conduct a survey of the city center as part of their investigations of a lost [[Templars|Templar]] treasure.[REF MIN]
Taíno refers to a group of related languages and cultures widespread across the Caribbean at the time of European arrival. Broadly speaking, they consisted of the Ciboney or Western Taíno of Cuba, Jamaica and the Bahamas; the Classic Taíno of Hispaniola and Borikén (the indigenous name of Puerto Rico); and the Eastern Taíno of the Antilles.


In the 2020s, [[Simon Mulio]] visited the church during his own search for the treasure and, after his disappearance, an Abstergo employee tracking him did the same.[REF MIN]
A Taíno cacique or chief demonstrated rank by carrying an object forged from guanín, a unique indigenous alloy made out of copper, silver, and gold, noted for its lustrous shine. The term "tabaco" from which we also derive from a Taíno word, as tobacco was cultivated on the islands and its usage noted by Spanish explorers. Other English words with a Taíno origin include barbecue, canoe, hurricane, iguana, and potato.

Other, non-Taíno indigenous groups of the island include the Ciguaya, Macorix, and Kalinago or Caribs, for whom the Caribbean Sea is named.

There were several attempts to found a town near the [[Havana]] Bay in the early 1500s. A settlement was established by the [[Spanish Empire|Spanish]] {{Wiki|Conquistador}} [[Diego Velázquez de Cuéllar]] around 1514. The city sits on a bay that opens to the {{Wiki|Gulf Stream}} and thus became a natural stopping point between [[Europe]] and the [[Americas]].

In the earliest stages of the [[Golden Age of Piracy|golden age of piracy]] Havana was burnt to the ground by [[France|French]] {{Wiki|French corsairs|corsair}}, [[Jacques de Sores]]. By the 1700s, Havana had become a large, heavily fortified port city where [[Spanish Treasure Fleet|Spanish treasure ships]] would dock on their way to Europe.

Originally founded as another [[Charleston|Charles-Towne]], the city was renamed [[Nassau]] in honor of [[William III of England|King William III]] of the {{Wiki|house of Orange-Nassau}}. This city has a particularly colorful past: In 1706 the city's officially appointed Governor skipped town, thus severing the [[British Empire|Crown]]'s direct control over [[the Bahamas]].
'''Henri Mulio''' (1886 – 1922)[REF INTERVIEW] was a miner employed by the [[Lens mining company]]. While working at [[Lens mining site number 9|mining site number 9]] in the city of [[Lens]], Henri discovered a long-lost [[Templars|Templar]] treasure. Though initially surprised, Henri quickly re-hid the treasure further in the tunnels and informed the foreman it had been a false alarm. The treause would remain hidden until the 2020s, when his great-grandson, the [[Assassins|Assassin]] ally [[Simon Mulio]],  retrieved it.[REF MIN]

The islands languished for almost a decade in the hands of [[United Kingdom|British]] [[Civilians|citizens]] with little or no interest in Statesmanship. By 1713, the entire region had become a haven for [[Piracy|pirates]] and it was in this period that [[Benjamin Hornigold]] declared Nassau to be a pirate republic. He proclaimed himself governor and thereafter every pirate of any sense and reputation used Nassau as a base of operation, transforming this small city of barely 1000 residences into a "nest of infamous bastards", according to the Governor of Bermuda.

In the early 2020s , Mulio explored the city of [[Lens]] in search of clues to a mysterious [[Templars|Templar]] treasure once discovered by his great-grandfather, who had worked at the [[Lens mining site number 9|mining site number 9]] for the [[Lens mining company]]. He visited a number of landmarks in the city, such as the [[Stade Bollaert-Delelis]] and the [[Church of Saint-Léger]], being picked up on [[Abstergo Industries]' surveillance, who had long suspected him of having ties to the Assassins.[REF MIN]
This [[Old Avery|drinking spot]], named after "The King of [[Piracy|Pirates]]" Henry Avery, was highly popular among gritty seafarers in the early 18th century. Legend had it that Avery himself once had a financial stake in several establishments throughout the [[Caribbean|West Indies]], but that appears to be nothing more than self-promotion.


Simon forged an employee badge and infiltrated the [[Louvre-Lens]] museum, which had been built atop mining site number 9, installing a computer security system that prevented the treasure's location in an underground gallery from being found. After searching the gallery and finding the treasure himself, Mulio passed the information onto the Brotherhood.

=The full quest=
The schooner was a class of ship used as a general sailing vessel by both navies and civilian operators, providing light firepower and ample speed.
==The inciting incident==
After moving to [[Amboise]], [[France]], [[Leonardo da Vinci]] turned his attention to researching ideal cities and, with the aid of [[England|English]] author [[Thomas More]], uncovered nine locations he thought conducive to the construction of [[Assassins|Assassin]] refuges meant to train and initiate [[Assassin apprentice|apprentices]], which he remarked were ancient and some even mythical. Afraid of possible interception, he hid encoded information with trusted friends scattered around [[Europe]] under express instructions to destroy it should the Assassins not be able to contact them within a month of his death. He then sent [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]] a letter with the first hints needed to arrive at the havens.<ref name="Letter">''[[Assassin's Creed: The Last Quest of Leonardo da Vinci]]'' – Letter from Leonardo</ref>


==First phase of the quest==
|-|Brig=
===Florence===
The brig was a class of ship bearing two square-rigged masts, and represented a compromise between larger, more powerful ships, and the faster, but less well-armed ones.
Leonardo's letter about Florence informed the Assassins that his famous painting, ''[[Annunciation]]'', had been fragmented and its pieces scattered. He tasked the Brotherhood with reconstructing it in order to find the clue to the havens hidden in the [[Assassin Tombs|Assassin Tomb]] inside the [[Cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore|Santa Maria Del Fiore]]. [REF: MINI-MAP: FLORENCE] Having received the quest, the local chapter sent agents to five landmarks to investigate.


At Leonardo's [[Bottega di Leonardo#Florence|oldest atelier]],[REF P28] a day of intense search yielded a type of matrix meant to hold different parts of a painting.[REF 047] One of the sections of ''Annunciation'' was located in the nearby ruins of the [[Palazzo Auditore]],[REF P44] having been hidden there a short time prior.[REF 089] Investigation into the [[Ponte Vecchio]][REF P42] did not garner any new pieces of the puzzle, but did lead to a skirmish against a group of bandits that had been attacking passers-by.[REF 069] After they had been driven off,[REF 084] two would-be-victims, [[Flora]][REF 024] and [[Alessio]],[REF 036] offered to join the Assassin in their quest, helping out with their experience as a thief and sharp mind, respectively.
|-|Man O' War=
The man o' war was a type of large warship purpose built for warfare, boasting multiple gun decks, and crewed by heavily armed professional soldiers.


One of the Assassins' informants tracked down other fragments of the painting to a merchant[REF 079] operating in the [[Mercato Vecchio]],[REF P37] leading the Brotherhood to retrieving two pieces from his locked chest.[REF 076] A doctor walking quickly through the market intrigued the Assassin and they followed the doctor[REF 094] to the [[Ospedale degli Innocenti]].[REF P17] At the hospital, they talked to the head doctor, learning that he had worked as Leonardo's personal assistant, accompannying him during his last year at Amboise before being called back to Florence some weeks prior to his death. He had been gifted with both the final section of the painting and with some instructions to solve the riddle, which he relayed to the Assassin.[REF CV9]
|-|El Dorado=
El Dorado was a brig that formed part of the Spanish Treasure Fleet.


Infiltrating the Duomo, the Assassins find that the entrance to the Tomb does not open as it once did.[REF 012] Figuring out Leonardo's enigma, they manage to trigger the new mechanism,[REF 080] and inside found another note from him as well as a map of Europe and the Mediterranean.[REF 092]
The fleet was destroyed in a hurricane, with the El Dorado its lone surviving vessel.


===Venice===
|-|Jackdaw=
Leonardo's letter about Venice informed the Assassins that he would leave his ally unnamed, for any information given would risk compromising him, instead leaving clues to his name scattered around the city for the Brotherhood to find.[REF: MINI-MAP: VENICE] Having received the quest, the local chapter sent agents to five landmarks to investigate.
The Jackdaw was a brig captained by the pirate-turned-Assassin Edward Kenway, who named it after the small, swift bird of his native Wales.


At Leonardo's [[Bottega di Leonardo#Venice|former atelier]],[REF P38] inspection returned a letter with a hint[REF CV23], old inscriptions on a wall,[REF 149] and some letters carved onto stone.[REF 103] One Assassin infiltrated the officers' quarters at the [[Arsenale di Venezia]],[REF P45] where they located a chest containing all items aprehended by the officials.[REF 009] Picking the lock,[REF CV5] they located another clue to the ally's name.[REF 141] More perilous was the investigation into the [[Ponte di Rialto]],[REF P18] where the guard patrols had been reinforced.[REF 195] Though they managed to fight off the guards, they had to spend some hours recuperating before continuing their search.[REF 077] Taking a closer look at the sign[REF 144] for the typographer's street revealed another fragment behind it.[REF CV2]
The ship was known as El Dorado before Edward and his future quartermaster Adéwalé captured it from its fleet.


The bustling market stands erected at the [[Piazza San Marco]] also commanded attention.[REF P43] A slave merchant settled near the [[Campanile di San Marco|Campanile]] boasted about the people he had for sale,[REF CV38] and one Assassin purchased and immediately freed Slav fighter [[Milosz]][REF 021] and Japanese acrobat [[Akiko]],[REF 097] both of whom offered to join in their quest as thanks. A stall for printed items near the [[Torre dell'Orologio]][REF CV43] held the final fragment.[REF 173]  Unscrambling the letters in all small clues led to the name "[[Aldus Manutius]]". Consulting the register for all of the printers in Venice also available at the market stall, the Assassins located the address to his press.[REF CV19] At the location, the [[Paulus Manutius|printer]] in charge told them that Aldus, his father, had passed away some years ago and he, along with his uncle and grandfather, took over the press. He continued, revealing that Leonardo had forewarned him of the quest, handing the Assassins a piece of paper bearing the typography mark for {{Wiki|Aldine Press}}.[REF CV40]
|-|Royal Fortune=
The Royal Fortune was a man o' war captained by the pirate and Sage Bartholomew Roberts, who elected to keep and renamed it after he captured it as the Nosso Senhor da Compreensão from the Portuguese Navy.


At the [[Palazzo Ducale di Venezia|Palazzo Ducale]],[REF P29] the Assassins tailed a steward to a room where he kept a record of affairs tha most worried the Doges, with the current topic on vogue dealing with the printing of licentious works by modern typographical techniques.[REF 119] In the room, there were a number of {{Wiki|incunable}}s, including a copy of ''{{Wiki|Hypnerotomachia Poliphili}}'' that had the mark for Aldine Press.[REF CV13] Recognizing the mark and flipping through the book revealed a note from Leonardo as as well as a map of Europe and the Mediterranean.[REF 086]
|-|The Ranger=
The Ranger was a brig formerly owned by the pirate Benjamin Hornigold before he passed it on to his colleague, Charles Vane.


===Rome===
</tabber>
Leonardo's letter about Rome informed the Assassins that the clue to the havens was left in a hidden compartment behind the [[Sistine Chapel]]'s ceiling, but getting it to open would require outwitting the [[Papal Guard]] and uncovering a riddle. [REF: MINI-MAP: ROME] Having received the quest, the local chapter sent agents to five landmarks to investigate.


At Leonardo's [[Bottega di Leonardo#Rome|former atelier]],[REF P12] after a full day searching through the bric-a-brac he had left behind, an Assassin uncovered a small clay tablet with a riddle.[REF 133] An ally of Leonardo's was located at the [[Colosseum]],[REF P7] waiting for the Assassin atop the tallest pillar[REF 158] in order to hand them a reproduction of one of the scenes painted on the Sistine Chapel's ceiling.[REF 122] Seeking further help in [[Tiber Island]],[REF P30] they followed an Assassin to a hideout[REF 188] and, after convincing those inside they were part of the Brotherhood, two of them, [[Arturo]][REF 061] and [[Esteban]],[REF 016] offered to join in their quest.[REF CV32]
<tabber>
|-|Spanish Brig=
A miniature ship model of a Spanish Brig.


Incursion into the [[Vaticano District]] began with the [[Castel Sant'Angelo]],[REF P39] where the Assassins infiltrated the administrator's study, where important items intercepted by the Papal authorities were kept.[REF 113] Searching through the writing desk,[REF 032] they found another reproduction among many licencious images.[REF 179] Climbing down the stairs towards the dungeon led to a skirmish with the guards,[REF 136] which, in turn, allowed the Assassins to retrieve the cell keys from the guard captain.[REF 091] They then freed two prisoners, a man who ran away in tears[REF 104] and a woman who thanked them for liberating her. She claimed she had been arrested because she had been hiding something, handing a small reproduction to her savior, mentioning that Leonardo had been correct in trusting them.[REF 164]
|-|Spanish Cutter=
A miniature ship model of a Spanish Cutter.


Reaching the Sistine Chapel,[REF P21] they dealt with the guard captain stationed ther taking another of the reproduction from his belongings.[REF 102] Cleared to approach the ceiling without interruptions, they climbed up.[REF 152] In the borders of some of the scenes of the fresco, they located buttons,[REF 068] which they pushed according to the riddle, revealing the secret compartment mentioned by da Vinci. Inside, they found another note from him as well as a map of Europe and the Mediterranean.[REF 082]
|-|Spanish Schooner=
A miniature ship model of a Spanish Schooner.


==Second phase of the quest==
|-|Spanish Frigate=
===Grenoble===
A miniature ship model of a Spanish Frigate.
Leonardo's letter about Grenoble informed the Assassins that the ally holding the clue to the havens, Sir [[Pierre Taillard]], chevalier de Bayard, was a cautious man and not easily approached. He then taked them with winning over his trust by reconstructing his coat of arms.[REF MINI-MAP GRENOBLE] Having received the quest, the local chapter sent agents to four landmarks to investigate.


At the ''[[Tour de l'Isle]]'',[REF P6] an Assassin ovearheard someone yelling for help through a locked door and promptly picked the lock,[REF 115] releasing a man who had been in the dark cellar.[ref 034] [[Jean (inspector)|Jean]], an inspector, thanked his saviour and explained that he had entered the tower to investigate a fire on the roof and ended up locked, offering his services as an investigator to the Assassin.[REF 031] Climbing the tower up to the roof,[REF 056] the Assassin found a plaque detailing that a fire inspection had been recently undertaken there by Bayard himself.[REF 019] They also retrieved a piece of fabric with an embroidered red lion found near the plaque.[REF 165]
|-|Spanish Man o' War=
A miniature ship model of a Spanish man o' war.


One Assassin went to the fortified mansion at ''[[Ferme de Vaulnaveys]]'',[REF P22] infiltrating the location and blending in with the workers[REF 040] by disguising as a servant. Having followed a team of workers attending to a group of dignitaries on vacation[REF 041] and learning through subtle interrogation that these aristocrats were known friends and allies of da Vinci,[REF CV42] the Assassin talked their way into being the one serving them tea.[REF 041] While alone with the three dignitaries, [[Clément Marot]], [[Marguerite of Navarre]] and [[François Rabelais]], the Assassin revealed themselves, though was met with some skepticism, leading to the trio testing them with a riddle each.[REF CV42] Being able to answer correctly pleased the dignitaries, who collectively agreed to allow the Assassin to meet with Bayard, handing them a fragment of the coat of arms they would need to do so.[REF 030]
|-|English Brig=
A miniature ship model of an English Brig.


Seeking to gather information at the ''[[Place de la Granaterie]]'', the Assassins investigated three leads.[REF P31] An old man at the square mentioned that Bayard's coat of arms featured a red lion, which he states represented Taillard completely.[REF 127] His feelings towards the town's protector was not shared by all, however, as a nearby wall seem to make fun of Bayard. His coat of arms was included in the inscribings at one point, to be used as a base for parodies, but had since been erased, probably by the authorities.[REF060] A drunk soldier on a break also proved to be a good source of intel, with the Assassin directing the conversation to the right places.[REF 135] From him, they learned not only  more about the coat of arms, receiving a fabric fragment similar to it,[REF CV29] but also heard that Bayard had dislocated his right soldier while supressing a mutiny some days prior, but kept on fighting.[REF CV36]
|-|English Cutter=
A miniature ship model of an English Cutter.


Having uncovered the complete picture of Bayard's coat of arms, the Assassins went to ''[[Église Saint-Laurent]]''.[REF P1] There they located a secret mechanism inside a panel in a wall under a discreet niche.[REF 131] Reconstructing the coat of arms in the mechanism, they unlocked a door leading down[REF 087] into the ''[[Crypte Saint-Oyard]]'', where Bayard awaited to test them.[REF P16] Before the Assassin could even speak, Bayard lunged into combat.[REF 126] Exploiting Bayard's injured soldier allowed the Assassin to keep up with the French military leader and he eventually stopped the fight, satisfied with the Assassin's performance.[REF 075] Bayard revealed that though Leonardo had mentioned the Assassin was a worthy opponent, he believed that words should be proven with actions. Finally convinced, he then handed them the translucid sheet with a line Leonardo had given him for safe keeping.[REF CV11]
|-|English Schooner=
A miniature ship model of an English Schooner.


===Brussels===
|-|English Frigate=
Leonardo's letter about Brussels informed the Assassins that after {{Wiki|Hieronymus Bosch}}'s death some years prior, his most famous work, ''{{Wiki|The Garden of Earthly Delights}}'', was bought and is being kept in Brussels. His ally in the city, a great traveller staying near the main town square of ''[[Grand'Place]]'', is awaiting the answer of a riddle involving the painting. [REF MINI-MAP BRUSSELS] Having received the quest, the local chapter sent agents to four landmarks to investigate.
A miniature ship model of an English Frigate.


The seat of the {{Wiki|House of Orange-Nassau|House of Orange}}, the ''[[Palais de Nassau]]'',[REF P19] proved well-guarded,[REF 139] though the Assassins prevailed in combat. After waiting for the commotion to die down, they explored the palace further[REF 46] and found Bosch's painting, preparing a sketch of it for later use.[REF 72]
|-|English Man o' War=
A miniature ship model of an English man o' war.


Sent to the ''[[Cathédrale Saints-Michel-et-Gudule]]'',[REF P15] an Assassin's investigation into da Vinci's quest was temporarily put aside when they caught a priest violently beating children. Quickly killing the abusive man, they heard from the children that they were orphans who had been taken in by the priest only for him to use them as a way to release his rage.[REF 120] One of the orphans, [[Peter (orphan)|Peter]], thanked the Assassin and offered to become an informant for the Brotherhood.[REF 002] Returning to their original purpose, they searched a room to right, locating a confusing manuscript containing a reproduction of Bosch's painting with an attached riddle fragment.[REF 117]
|-|The El Dorado=
A miniature ship model of the El Dorado.


The inspection at the church of ''[[Notre-dame du Sablon]]''[REF P32] was calmer. Examination of the holy scriptures near the altar revealed some annotations made by the priest that could help in figuring out the riddles[REF 129] and one of the monks in the church subtly motioned for the Assassin to follow him,[REF 050] leading him to a stained glass window and pointing to a swan, another hint.[REF 153]
|-|The Jackdaw=
A miniature ship model of the Jackdaw.


At the bustling ''Grand'Place'', the Assassins had a number of possible leads to follow.[REF P23] At a fabric shop off the square, one Assassin overheard a merchant boasting that his artisans had been inspired by the ''The Garden of Earthly Delights'' for their latest creation,[REF 198]
|-|The Revenge (ship model)=
and managed to retrieve a fragment of the riddle from the location.[REF 182] In the open air market, another boasting merchant was claiming to have figured out the secret behind the painting, with his information being kept in a nearby wooden chest.[REF 101] Picking the lock on the chest[REF 038] allowed the Brotherhood to acquire another riddle fragment.[REF 159] A hustler playing dice proposed a gamble where he would give information if the Assassin managed to win his game, having mentioned he knew about the painting at the ''Palais de Nassau''.[REF CV18] Impressed by the Assassin's skills, the hustler hands them a piece of paper witht the missing enigma fragment.[REF 125] Climbing up the tower of the {{Wiki|Brussels Town Hall|town hall}} for a better look at the ''Grand'Place'',[REF 172] allowed for the Assassin to locate a building with a swan adorning its façade.[REF CV4]
A miniature ship model of the Revenge.
</tabber>


The Assassins headed to the ''[[Maison du Cygne]]'', where they finally met da Vinci's ally, the theologian [[Desiderius Erasmus]].[REF P9] Erasmus congratulated the Assassins on locating him, but required them to tell him the secret of the painting to prove that Leonardo had been correct in placing his trust on them.[REF 177] Puzzling out the solution based on the information they had collected,[REF 015] they tell Erasmus the answer. Nodding in agreement with the explanation, he disappeared into the building and quickly returned, handing them the translucid sheet with a line Leonardo had given him for safe keeping.[REF 192]
<tabber>
|-|Black Jaguar=
In the [[Americas]], the term ‘black panther’ generally refers to a melanistic [[jaguar]]. They are not a separate species, but a color morph of the spotted form. Black jaguars form less than ten percent of jaguars.


===Augsburg===
Black jaguars can be found in Isla Providencia and Pinos Isle.
Leonardo's letter about Augsburg informed the Assassins that the city is still resonating with the 95 theses that dissident theologian [[Martin Luther]] had plastered on the door of its churchs to encourage a {{Wiki|Reformation}} and, though the Brotherhood usually did not involve itself in matters of religion, one of the theses could correspond to [[the Creed]] and they should discuss it with Luther.[REF MINI-MAP AUGSBURG] Having received the quest, the local chapter sent agents to five landmarks to investigate.


Considering it relevant to the affair, Assassins visited two of the churches in the city, ''[[Dom Mariä Heimsuchung]]''[REF P5] and the ''[[Basilika St Ulrich und Afra]]''.[REF P13] For the former, they entered through an open window and, during their search, noted something fixed against a wall in the room beneath the spire.[REF 166] A closer inspection revealed these to be a section of the theses, containing some of the most controverse among them.[REF 008] At the ''Basilika'', the Assassin picked the lock to a side door[REF 154] leading to a study, where another section of the theses previously affixed to the church's door was being kept.[REF 004]
|-|Cat=
The cat is a small carnivorous mammal with a flexible body, sharp claws, and quick reflexes. Cats have long been domesticated, and are favored as pets for their affectionate independence, and playful natures.


At [[Atelier Holbein]],[REF P24] an Assassin spoke to [[Hans Holbein the Elder]], who did not see eye to eye with Luther's views and claimed that he and his {{Wiki|Hans Holbein the Younger|son}}<!-- Considering he says "son" singular, this implies that Ambrosius Holbein has already passed.-- have been "fighting" against the reformation in their own way, slipping in their demands into some of their paintings.[REF 111] Examining some of the completed paintings by the Holbein family more closely[REF CV15] led the Assassin to notice that a panel in the background of the ''{{Wiki|Portrait of Bonifacius Amerbach}}'' showed some of the thesis.[REF 055] [[Greta]], an illuminator who worked as an assistant to Holbein, overheard the dialogue and, having both recently finished her apprenticeship and a wish for adventure, offered to join the Assassin in their quest.[REF 003]
Sailors often keep cats aboard ships to deal with rats and other vermin.


One Assassin elected to go to the ''[[Wassertürme]]'',[REF P33] one of the water towers serving the city, where they located old inscriptions left behind by the Brotherhood quite some time before. Surmising that the intention had been to show that the location of the many water towers had a specific meaning,[REF 148] they decided to check a diagram of the water management system,[REF CV1] being led to a point in town where they located a plaque adorned with the Creed under a tree.[REF 043]
|-|Crocodile=
The [[Crocodile]] is a large, tropical-dwelling tetrapod. Crocodiles can measure up to 15 feet long, weigh 2000 pounds, and live to be 70 years old. This prehistoric-looking predator preys on birds, fish, insects and other reptiles.


Tracking down Martin Luther to ''[[Die Fuggerei]]'',[REF P2] a recently-opened public housing complex, the Assassins paid him a visit. Luther had been aware of the Brotherhood, but seemed surprised to hear that their philosophies were compatible, requesting proof that the Creed could be conciliated with his Reformation.[REF 026] Matching the last sentence in the plaque found following the water towers ("By protecting the weakest, we become stronger.") to Luther's 44th thesis ("By the very exercise of benevolence, benevolence grows and man becomes better."),[REF 044] the Assassins were able to convince the theologian that the modern preocupations of the Reformation and the Creed were compatible, and handed them the translucid sheet with a line Leonardo had given him for safe keeping.[REF 070]
Crocodiles have been known to indulge in cannibalistic behaviour. Because of this, they live in groupings of the same size.


==Third phase of the quest==
Not to be confused with alligators, crocodiles are bigger, lighter in color, and have narrower snouts. Although known to attack [[humans]], the crocodile is more likely to flee than to react aggressively when approached.
===London===
Leonardo's letter about London was more direct than the others, reflecting the gravity of the situation: [[Thomas More]], who had aided him in researching the havens, had been arrested and taken to the [[Tower of London]]. Da Vinci requested that the Brotherhood locate More within the complex and free him.[REF MINI-MAP LONDON] Having received the quest, the local chapter sent agents to five landmarks to investigate.


One Assassin infiltrated [[Ebury Manor]],[REF P4] whose inhabitants had strong ties with the organization of detentions and guards at the Tower of London, and located a number of papers of interest,[REF 064] including a fragment of the complex's floor plans.[REF 175] A secret document, that was difficult to decipher, detailed that More was being kept in a building between Legge's Mount and Develin Tower.[REF 096]
Crocodiles are most commonly found in Nassau, Long Bay, and Matanzas.


Seeking allies of More, an Assassin travelled to [[Peterhouse]], [[Cambridge]],[REF P10] where they attended a talk by [[Richard Croke]], a disciple of [[Desiderius Erasmus]].[REF 171] Croke, a friend of More, had spent the last few weeksdoing his own investigation on the matter, managing to figure out that he was being kept somewhere between Martin Tower and Well Tower, which he relayed to the Assassin.[REF CV28] While still at the university, the Assassin interacted with a group of students, collecting information on everything related to More's enprisonment and discussing the Tower of London with a specialist on urban planning,[REF 100] acquiring another section of the floor plans.[REF 194]
|-|Deer=
Deer are large hoofed ruminants notable for having two large and two small hooves on each foot. Males have antlers while the females do not, with the exception of a single species where the females also grow antlers. Deer are selective feeders, eating plant food low in fiber content and high in protein such as young grass, herbs, woody shoots, and bark.


The center of government in England, [[Palace of Westminster|Westminster Palace]],[REF P20] would also yield a section of the tower's plans,[REF 187] acquired by following an intendant responsible for urban matters to the building register office.<!--This predates the HM Land Registry by like 3 centuries--[REF 150] A compartment just under the spire[REF 157] of [[St. Paul's Cathedral|Old St. Paul's]][REF P25] held an {{Wiki|Toposcope|orientation table}} with a section detailing some of the characteristics of the Tower of London,[REF 025] and was also collected.[REF 190]
Various subspecies of deer can be found in the Caribbean bioregion. The red brocket deer, for example, is found in Trinidad and Tobago and the Key deer, introduced by colonists, inhabits the Florida Keys.


With the collected information, the Assassins went to the Tower of London.[REF P34] From a vantage point at the tallest point in the prison complex, they prepared a precise map of the area[REF 020] to fine-tune their plans.[REF 146] Locating More within the Salt Tower,[REF 022] the Assassins released him and, in thanks, received the translucid sheet with a line Leonardo had given him. He also encouraged them, saying to "make good use of it, and carry out our great utopia."[REF CV8]
Deer are most commonly found in Kingston, Salt Lagoon, and Santanillas.


===Seville===
|-|Frigatebird=
Leonardo's letter about Seville informed the Assassins that alongside his work on ideal cities that led to the discovery of the havens, he had also been working on designing a device meant for use in a naval capacity, under the request of his friend Portuguese explorer [[Ferdinand Magellan]]. Having been fascinated with the charm of ''{{Wiki|azulejo}}s'', decorated ceramic tiles, that had also captivated Spain, he had etched his designs onto a number of them and scattered them throughout Seville to prevent discovery by unsavory elements, asking the Brotherhood to collect the tiles and help Magellan construct the device.[REF MINI-MAP SEVILLE] Having received the quest, the local chapter sent agents to four landmarks to investigate.
Frigate birds are large seabirds with long wings, forked tails, and slender bodies. They generally inhabit tropical and subtropical oceans, often nesting on remote islands. Frigate birds are skilled fliers, and are known to steal food from other seabirds.


Incursion into the military tower of ''[[Torre del Oro]]''[REF P3] led to a skirmish with a group of guards,[REF 161] though they were driven back by exploiting their weaknesses, such as one guard with an unprotected shoulder. With ample time to inspect the recently affixed tiles,[REF 078] the Assassins uncovered one fragment of the diagram.[REF 98]
|-|Hammerhead Shark=
Found across the world in tropical and temperate waters, the [[Hammerhead sharks|hammerhead]]'s unusual head shape gives it increased sensory ability to detect its prey. The hammerhead does not attack humans, although it can be lethal if provoked.


Hoping to get a [[Viewpoint|better view]] of the city,[REF 189] one Assassin decided to scale the ''[[Giralda]]'',[REF P35] the minaret repurposed as the bell tower of [[Seville Cathedral]]. Up high, they noticed tiles in the tower's parapet,[REF 27] an unusual location for them to be added,[REF 106] and further examination did confirm another diagram fragment.[REF 174] They also took note of a nearby building that was of interest, and left for the ''[[Alcázar]]'',[REF P40] where a wall of ''azulejos'' also yielded a fragment.[CV3]
Hammerhead sharks can be found in the Eleuthera and Gibara regions.


An Assassin elected to investigate the ''[[Estudio General de Sevilla]]'',[REF P14] where they met with [[Ignacio de Loyola]], one of the most eminent members of the university and a Brotherhood ally. The theologian listened to the Assassin's description of their quest and motivations and informed him of two artists living in Seville and frequenting the Estudio that may have known da Vinci.[REF CV22] The Assassin then tracked down[REF CV10] both [[Alonso Berruguete]] and [[Nicoluso Pisano]]. Berruguete, [[Michelangelo]]'s pupil, revealed that he had traded letters with Leonardo through his master, since his big plan was to introduce {{Wiki|Florentine painting}} to Spain, and he had been entrusted with half a tile.[REF CV6] Pisano, who claimed to be responsible for introducing ''azulejos'' to the {{Wiki|Iberian Peninsula}}, had been friends with Leonardo and was deeply saddened by his death. He had discussed the ceramic techniques required for crafting ''azulejos'' with da Vinci and had also been entrusted with a half tile.[REF CV33] After recognizing da Vinci's prudence in dividing the clues among his allies in Seville, the Assassin received both halves from the artists.[REF CV39]
|-|Howler Monkey=
Considered one of the loudest animals on [[earth]], the small-sized [[Howler monkey|Howler Monkey]] generates a siren-like howl that can be heard from a distance of 3 miles (5km). They are not aggressive and are popular as pets in The West Indies.


Ferdinand Magellan was easily tracked down to the ''[[Palacio de las Dueñas]]'',[REF P6] where he asked the Assassin's for help in completing da Vinci's device, since it was meant for his upcoming {{Wiki|Magellan expedition|circumnavigation voyage}}. He handed them the purchase list of final items Leonardo required,[REF CV30] which the Assassin cross-referenced with the completed design,[REF 059] receiving in thanks the translucid sheet with a line Magellan had been keeping.[REF 168]
Howler monkeys are most commonly found in Kingston, Cape Bonavista, and Long Bay.


===Lisbon===
|-|Hutia=
Leonardo's letter about Lisbon informed the Assassins that he had lost contact with his ally, the Portuguese explorer [[Vasco da Gama]], in the last few years. He managed to discover that da Gama has retired and moved to a village near Lisbon, but could not uncover where exactly, leaving that task up to the Brotherhood.[REF: Mini-map: Lisbon] Having received the quest, the local chapter sent agents to four landmarks to investigate.
The hutia is a large rodent unique to the Caribbean basin which varies in size, and can form distinct species from island to island. Hutias are often hunted by locals to be eaten in a spiced stew.


An Assassin infiltrated the ''[[Torre de Belém]]'',[REF P27] a [[fort]] that served as the main point of embarkation and disembarkation for Portuguese explorers,<ref>{{WP|Belém Tower}}</ref> and searched the place for documents related to da Gama's passage through the city,[REF 088] finding a note with his name and a map of Portugal with Lisbon and the main surrounding villages marked.[REF ENIGME 9] At the ''[[Carmo Convent|Convento do Carmo]]'',[REF P41] they uncovered a couple of recently painted nautical frescos, and copied over two fragments of a map with a trajectory inscribed upon them.[REF CV41, CV44]
Hutias are most commonly found in Cayman Sound and Long Bay.


In the city's main fort of ''[[Castelo de São Jorge]]'',[REF P11] an Assassin following a group of actors disguised themselves as an {{Wiki|Supernumerary actor|extra}} for a few days and joined their troupe without raising suspicions, with the aim of getting closer to the theatre director, [[Gil Vicente]], one of the main playwrights of Portugal, assuming he would have a lead into da Gama.[REF 160] Vicente was forthcoming with information, saying that da Gama had been an avid theatre goer, but had stopped watching plays some time ago. He also mentioned that after being quite impressed with one of his plays, the old explorer had given Vicente a piece of a map with the trajectory of his fabled trip to [[Calcutta]] in thanks, which he handed to the Assassin.[REF CV16]
|-|Iguana=
Iguanas are large, herbivorous lizards found throughout the Caribbean islands. The common iguana eats only leaves, flowers and fruit. Despite their at times fierce appearance they are not aggressive, and typically flee when threatened. However, they can lash their tails and bite if provoked.


The investigation into the ''[[Mosteiro dos Jerónimos]]''[REF P36] had some difficulties, as their locks were difficult to pick, thanks to the {{Wiki|Hieronymites}}' tendency for secrecy,[REF 001] and the Assassin was surprised by one of the monks in the study,[REF 052] who would not calm down[REF CV35] and had to be silenced permanently to avoid further discovery.[REF 108] The search was, however, fruitful,[REF CV14] leading to the discovery of another map fragment[REF 200] as well as a register containing the distances between Lisbon and the main nearby villages.[REF 137]
Iguana are found in Great Inagua, Andreas Island, and Abaco Island.


By superimposing the map fragments atop the map of Portugal, the Assassins discover the location of da Gama: [[Vidigueira]], and set off immediately for the village.[REF 180] There, da Gama received the Assassins warmly, mentioning that though Leonardo had told him someone would come for the item he was guarding, he did not expect they would find them in Vidigueira. He then handed the Assassins the translucid sheet with a line Leonardo had given him for safe keeping.[REF CV12]
|-|Jaguar=
The largest feline in the Western hemisphere, the [[jaguar]] is distinguished by its compact and powerful build, its agility, and its unique killing method of biting directly into the skull to pierce the brain. The [[Maya]]ns believed that the jaguars could carry messages to and from the afterworld.


==The outcome==
Jaguars are most commonly found in Cape Bonavista, Long Bay, Tulum, and Principe.
Combining the information retrieved from each city, the Assassins located the nine havens discovered by da Vinci.<ref name="Last Quest">''[[Assassin's Creed: The Last Quest of Leonardo da Vinci]]''</ref>


|-|Jellyfish=
Also called a [[wikt:medusa|medusa]], the [[jellyfish]] isn't technically a [[fish]]—it is a free-swimming {{Wiki|Cnidaria|non-vertebrate}} found in every sea across the [[Earth|world]]. Jellyfish consist of a {{Wiki|Mesoglea|gelatinous bell}} with trailing tentacles capable of {{Wiki|Cnidocyte|stinging}} prey. Jellyfish stings are in most cases harmless to [[human]]s, but some can be extremely serious, even lethal.


=[[Haven]]=
|-|Manta Ray=
{{Era|Locations|Assassins}}
Although related to [[shark]]s, [[manta ray]]s are harmless. They can be quite large (up to 30 ft (9m) wide) and feed on small [[fish]] and plankton, funneling food into their mouth using {{Wiki|cephalic}} flaps extending from the eyes. Manta rays, which are found all over the world, have the unique ability to leap from the water into the air to escape attackers.
{{Quote|This is what I would like to offer in my will: Havens, in which new apprentices could be trained and initiated.|Leonardo da Vinci in his final letter to Ezio Auditore, 1519.|Assassin's Creed: The Last Quest of Leonardo da Vinci}}
A '''haven'''  was a place selected by [[Leonardo da Vinci]] as a secretive location conducive to the construction of [[Assassins|Assassin]] refuges meant to train and initiate [[Assassin apprentice|apprentices]]. After moving to [[Amboise]], [[France]], Leonardo turned his attention to researching ideal cities and, with the aid of [[England|English]] author [[Thomas More]], uncovered nine such sites, which he remarked were ancient and some even mythical. Afraid of possible interception, he hid encoded information with trusted friends scattered around [[Europe]] under express instructions to destroy it should the Assassins not be able to contact them within a month of his death. He then sent [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]] a letter with the first hints needed to arrive at the havens.<ref name="Letter">''[[Assassin's Creed: The Last Quest of Leonardo da Vinci]]'' – Letter from Leonardo</ref>


Ezio, with the help of other members of the [[Italian Brotherhood of Assassins]], followed the trail in the [[Italy|Italian]] cities of [[Florence]], [[Venice]] and [[Rome]] before sending messages to the local Brotherhood chapters in [[Grenoble]], [[Brussels]] and [[Augsburg]], which then contacted the Assassins living further west, in the cities of [[London]], [[Seville]] and [[Lisbon]].

|-|Monkey=
Monkeys in the Caribbean are primarily an introduced African species called the green monkey, although up to the 17th Century these still shared territory with the now extinct Jamaican monkey. Both species were omnivores that ate a variety of foraged foods including fruit, seeds, flowers, insects, and smaller animals like frogs and birds.


==List of havens==
Monkeys were viewed as pests by farmers as they continually raided crops, but were favoured by locals and sailors who adopted them as mischievous, intelligent pets.

'''Milosz''' was a {{Wiki|Slavs|Slav}} fighter active in early 16th century [[Venice]].

Then fortune struck, giving Adéwalé the sign he needed. At some point near his 16th birthday, a group of buccaneers raided the [[plantation]], robbing it of raw cane, refined [[sugar]], and as many [[real]]es as they could find. Seeing in this an opportunity, Adé grabbed a crate of sugar and hauled it aboard one of the longboats the buccaneers had rowed ashore. Surprised to see a slave among them, the buccaneers were nevertheless thankful for the aid, and welcomed Adé among them.
At some point, Milosz was captured and forced into [[slavery]]. On May 1519, Milosz was presented at a slave sale in the [[Piazza San Marco]] along with [[Akiko]].

Adé sailed with this first group of men for many years, quickly learning the ways of a seaman, grateful for the chance to develop his own skills and chase his own passions.

He sent word far and wide to as many Assassin outposts as possible, hoping their network of spies and informants would lead them to their prize. But after two years, there was no word.

Then, in early 1715, an experienced British Assassin named [[Duncan Walpole]] arrived at Ah Tabai's encampment, initially expressing a desire to train under the Mentor directly.

Then in June of 1715, word arrived that the [[Templars]] had located and imprisoned the [[Sages|Sage]] on [[Spain|Spanish]] lands in the far south.

In the earliest months of their marriage, Edward resolved to do well by his wife and provide for her as he believed a man in his position should. But his grandiose dreams and exaggerated opinion of himself prevented him from taking immediate responsibility for their well-being. And after only a year, he had stumbled back into his worst habits - drinking, fighting and idleness.

It was in this dark period that Edward revived an old idea of joining a [[privateer]]ing fleet sailing for the [[Caribbean|West Indies]], with the aim of making war against the [[Spain|Spanish]] and collecting unchecked sums of gold and cargo. This, he told his wife, was their path to quick riches. Being a sensible and prudent woman, Caroline discouraged these fanciful ideas.

These were fanciful days for Edward. He discovered in the small town of [[Nassau]] a life quite unlike that which he had left behind. The atmosphere of wild and noisy freedom in this small stateless encampment overwhelmed and captivated him. The drinking, the gaming, the women, the aimless desire to simply live as one pleased.

But in absence of true conviction, habit takes hold fast; and it was only a matter of time before Edward set back out to sea with his mates, to live the life they knew best; no longer privateers—legal and sanctioned—but as [[Piracy|pirates]] now, with nary a whit of loyalty to kin and country, earning his fortune by the sword and pistol, praying his end was never too near.

Nicknamed "Calico" for his affinity for [[India]]n and [[Asia]]n prints, he was a terrible sailor and a worse pirate, given to flights of fancy and myopic ideas that served only himself, rather than solid strategic thinking. He was likely drunk for half of his adulthood, and had a weakness for women that trumped all basic needs, such as sleeping or eating. His disarming charm, dashing good looks, and his swift wit carried him far, but parties can only last so long before someone has to clean up after them.

A common refrain in any biography of a [[Golden Age of Piracy|Golden Age]] [[Piracy|Pirate]] goes something like this: "Very little is known about this man's early life..." And with [[Charles Vane]] it's no different. It is not known where he was born, or where he grew up, or when he first took to sea. But maybe that's just as well, for it further heightens the mystery of this strange, unstable man.
{{Era|Individuals}}{{WP-REAL}}
'''Aldus Manutius''' (Italian: ''Aldo Manuzio''; c. 1449/1452 – 1515) was an [[Italy|Italian]] printer who founded {{Wiki|Aldine Press}} in [[Venice]].<ref name="Wiki">{{WP|Aldus Manutius}}</ref>


Aldus was a friend and ally to artist [[Leonardo da Vinci]], and was involved in the latter's research on the [[haven]]s, being entrusted with a clue, but died before he could hand it off to the [[Assassins]].

Surely one of the most ornery and unstable of the "Flying Gang", the band of pirates who called [[Nassau]] their home for a time, Charles Vane began his career like most pirates of the era--honestly, as a [[privateer]] sailing for his King. Likely living in Jamaica in 1715, he was one of many aboard [[Henry Jennings]]' assault on a [[Spain|Spanish]] expedition to recover the gold from their [[Spanish Treasure Fleet|ill fated wreck]] in 1715 off the coast of [[Florida]].


==Appearances==
Barely a year later it had become impossible to keep up honest work as a privateer, as [[United Kingdom|British]] Governors were skittish about breaking the terms of the [[Peace of Utrecht|Treaty of Utrecht]], which called for a cessation of all aggression between the major empires. Having few other options, Vane sailed to Nassau where many of his former colleagues were now living.

==Biography==
Even though not yet out of his teens, James Kidd was a cocky and confident lad with a brashness cultivated to counter his youth. He claimed to be the bastard son of the late [[William Kidd]], the infamous privateer-turned-[[Piracy|pirate]] who was captured and hanged by [[United Kingdom|British]] authorities in 1701. Although James had no proof of this connection, his mother always insisted on it, claiming that she spent a single "panicked night of passion" with Captain Kidd just before his departure from London in 1695.

Of all the infamous [[Caribbean|West Indies]] [[Piracy|pirates]], [[Mary Read]] stands out as one of the most mysterious and inscrutable. No one is sure when she was born, with most speculation ranging over almost a decade, between 1685 and 1695. According to [[Charles Johnson]]—a frequently unreliable source—her mother began dressing Mary in boy's clothes from a very early age, with the hope of passing her off as another man's son.
{{Era|Individuals}}{{WP-REAL}}
'''Gil Vicente''' (c. 1465 – c. 1536) was a Portuguese playwright and poet.<ref name="Wiki">{{WP|Gil Vicente}}</ref>


==Biography==
In her teens, Mary evidently harnessed her skill for disguise to secure a job aboard a [[ship]]. Taking to sea, she worked her way forward until she found a position in the [[Royal Navy|British Navy]]. Still disguised as a man, she saw action in battle, though owing to the conflicting reports of her birth, which battle is uncertain. It was during these skirmishes that Mary met her first husband—so the author of the "General History of Pyrates" claims—a Flemish soldier who had evidently fought beside her.
On May 1519, Vicente was at the [[Castelo de São Jorge]] rehearsing with his theater troupe when he was approached by an Assassin asking about [[Vasco da Gama]].<ref name="C160">''[[Assassin's Creed: The Last Quest of Leonardo da Vinci]]'' – Card 160</ref> Vicente was forthcoming with information, saying that da Gama had been an avid theatre goer, but had stopped watching plays some time ago.

But this union was not fated to remain intact, as Mary's husband was killed soon after their marriage. With few reasons to remain in [[Europe]], Mary sailed for the West Indies. It is unclear what transpired in the years following, but it is almost certain that she resumed the practice of dressing as a man. It is also assumed Mary continued working aboard ships, improving her skills as a sailor and swordsman.

==Biography==
At twelve, her village was [[raid]]ed by the Spanish. Most of her community was kidnapped and killed. But Opía, the lone free survivor, fought and ran. She survived in hiding for close to a decade.
In early 1519, Croke's friend [[Thomas More]] was arrested and taken to the Tower of London. Croke then began to investigate the matter, attempting to learn which building inside the prison he was being kept in.<ref name="CV28">''[[Assassin's Creed: The Last Quest of Leonardo da Vinci]]'' – Carnet de Voyage 28</ref> On May of that year, after a lecture in [[Peterhouse]], [[Cambridge]], Croke was approached by a member of the [[British Brotherhood of Assassins]] who had been tasked with locating and freeing More.<ref name="C171"/> Croke relayed the findings of his investigation to the Assassin, mentioning that his friend was being kept somewhere between Martin Tower and Well Tower.<ref name="CV28"/>

Much of what we know of Opía is inseparable from legend. Her name, possibly self-given, is an amalgam of the Taíno words for "eternity" and "ghost." She claimed to be a direct descendant of the warrior {{Wiki|Hatuey}}, who stood against the Spanish in the 16th Century. She was guided throughout her life by the mantra, ''Aji aya bom''—better dead than a [[Slavery|slave]].

In her early twenties, she was hired by the [[Assassins]] as a guide, and was soon [[Initiation into the Assassin Order|adopted]] into their [[Assassin rank|ranks]].

==History==
Born in [[Scotland]], [[Rhona Dinsmore]] was made for adventure. After suffering the lows of a troubled household–an absent father and a drunkard of a mother–Dinsmore left her home in Glasgow in her mid-teens. At nineteen, she found work amongst [[merchant]]s in [[Bristol]] and remained at that post for nearly two years.
In May 1519, members of the local chapter of the [[Assassins]] visited ''Die Fuggerei'' as part of their search for the clues to the [[haven]]s [[Leonardo da Vinci]] hid in the city.[REF GAME] Having tracked down theologian [[Martin Luther]] to the then-recently-opened public housing complex, the Assassins paid him a visit. There, Luther showed he had been aware of the Brotherhood, but seemed surprised to hear that their philosophies were compatible, requesting proof that the Creed could be conciliated with his Reformation.[REF 026] Using the clues they had already found at other landmarks in Augsburg,[REF 044] the Assassins were able to convince the theologian that the modern preocupations of the Reformation and the Creed were compatible, and handed them the translucid sheet with a line Leonardo had given him for safe keeping.[REF 070]

By twenty-one, Dinsmore was trapped in a terrible marriage. She fled again and sought refuge in [[Boston]], where she remained for six months, before moving on to the warmer climes of [[Jamaica]].

Originally hailing from Wales, little is known about [[Bartholomew Roberts|John Roberts]], the real name of the man who would come to be known as "Black Bart" long after his death.
{{Era|Landmarks}}
'''Atelier Holbein''' was the atelier of {{Wiki|German Renaissance}} painter [[Hans Holbein the Elder]], and his two sons, {{Wiki|Ambrosius Holbein}} and {{Wiki|Hans Holbein the Younger}}, in the city of [[Augsburg]], [[Germany]].


==History==
Most assume he went to sea at a very young age -- at 13 or so -- but there is no record of him in any historical documents until his noted appearance in 1718 aboard a merchant's ship, [[Barbados|Barbadian]] in origin. Just a year later Roberts was pressed into [[piracy]] by the notorious [[Howell Davis]] while working aboard [[Princess|a slave ship]] under Captain Abraham Plumb. Though Roberts had likely not gone to sea with the intent of becoming a pirate, when the opportunity thrust itself upon him, Roberts was reported to have said 'A merry life, and a short one shall be my motto.'
In May 1519, members of the local chapter of the [[Assassins]] visited Atelier Holbein as part of their search for the clues to the [[haven]]s [[Leonardo da Vinci]] hid in the city.[REF GAME] At the atelier, At [[Atelier Holbein]],[REF P24] an Assassin spoke to [[Hans Holbein the Elder]], who did not see eye to eye with Luther's views and claimed that he and his surviving son, Hans, had been "fighting" against the Reformation in their own way, slipping in their demands into some of their paintings.[REF 111] Examining some of the completed paintings by the Holbein family more closely[REF CV15] led the Assassin to notice that a panel in the background of the ''{{Wiki|Portrait of Bonifacius Amerbach}}'' showed some of the theses.[REF 055] [[Greta]], an illuminator who worked as an assistant to Holbein, overheard the dialogue and, having both recently finished her apprenticeship and a wish for adventure, offered to join the Assassin in their quest.[REF 003]


==Appearances==
A few months later Davis was killed in an ambush on the [[Portugal|Portuguese]] Island of [[Príncipe]], and Roberts was swiftly and unanimously elected to replace him. This was surely a testament to the man's natural charisma and leadership, for he had been a pirate only a few months. It was at this point he took the name "Bartholomew", likely naming himself for the infamous Bartholomew Sharpe, a pirate of some renown who had disappeared just two decades earlier.
*''[[Assassin's Creed: The Last Quest of Leonardo da Vinci]]''


==References==
One of the most intelligent and strategic pirates of the [[Golden Age of Piracy|Golden Age]], Roberts was a sturdy man, known to dress in fine clothes. Handsome, and carrying himself with a dignified but unpretentious air, he had dark hair to match his dark complexion, likely set from the almost two decades he had spent at sea.

Roberts' tactical ideas were usually radical, but thoughtfully considered. He never jumped into any scheme rashly, though his ideas seemed almost suicidal to those unacquainted with his methods. Ultimately responsible for the theft of around 400 ships in his three-year career, he bested every other pirate of the era by a factor of ten times or more, although it must be said that at least half of these boats were small periaguas and the like.

In May 1519, members of the local chapter of the [[Assassins]] visited the Wassertürme as part of their search for the clues to the [[haven]]s [[Leonardo da Vinci]] hid in the city.[REF GAME] One Assassin elected to go to the ''Wassertürme'',[REF P33] where they located old inscriptions left behind by the Brotherhood quite some time before. Surmising that the intention had been to show that the location of the many water towers had a specific meaning,[REF 148] they decided to check a diagram of the water management system,[REF CV1] being led to a point in town where they located a plaque adorned with the Creed under a tree.[REF 043]


==Appearances==
Hornigold was one of the earliest pirates to emerge after the end of the [[War of the Spanish Succession]], and one of the many hundreds of privateers who were left without gainful employment in the ensuing peace. Like many other British mariners, he spent much of his time in [[the Bahamas]], eventually settling in [[Nassau]]. It was from there he launched his career as a full-fledged pirate, though he likely thought of himself as a privateer--in his earliest years, at least.

Quickly killing the abusive man, they heard from the children that they were orphans who had been taken in by the priest only for him to use them as a way to release his rage.[REF 120] One of the orphans, [[Peter (orphan)|Peter]], thanked the Assassin and offered to become an informant for the Brotherhood.[REF 002] Returning to their original purpose, they searched a room off to right, locating a confusing manuscript containing a reproduction of Bosch's painting with an attached riddle fragment.[REF 117]

In May 1519, members of the local chapter of the [[Assassins]] visited the Crypte Saint-Oyand as part of their search for the clues to the [[haven]]s [[Leonardo da Vinci]] hid in the city.[REF GAME] Having used a secret mechanism in the Église Saint-Laurent to unlock a doorway into the crypt, the Assassin went down only to find Leonardo's ally Sir [[Pierre Taillard]], chevalier de Bayard, awaiting to test them.[REF P16] Before the Assassin could even speak, Bayard lunged into combat.[REF 126] Exploiting Bayard's injured shoulder allowed the Assassin to keep up with the French military leader and he eventually stopped the fight, satisfied with the Assassin's performance.[REF 075] Bayard revealed that though Leonardo had mentioned the Assassin was a worthy opponent, he believed that words should be proven with actions.

{{Era|Landmarks}}{{WP-REAL|fr:Tour de l'Isle}}
Historic archives contain scattered references to individuals known as "Sages", but they are few and far between. Each citation seems to refer to a different person living in a vastly different time and location.
The '''''Tour de l'Isle''''' is a large crenellated tower in [[Grenoble]], [[France]], built in 1381.<ref name="Wiki">{{WP|fr:Tour de l'Isle}}</ref>


==History==
The earliest example was found in a Sumerian clay tablet in cuneiform script, while the latest survives only as a footnote in one of Laureano Torres's own journals, dated January 1704. In all – according to exhaustive research – seven different "Sages" seem to have graced the world's stage in the past twelve hundred years. But the real number is likely higher.
In May 1519, members of the local chapter of the [[Assassins]] visited the Tour de l'Isle as part of their search for the clues to the [[haven]]s [[Leonardo da Vinci]] hid in the city.[REF GAME] At the tower,[REF P6] an Assassin overheard someone yelling for help through a locked door and promptly picked the lock,[REF 115] releasing a man who had been in the dark cellar.[ref 034] [[Jean (inspector)|Jean]], an inspector, thanked his saviour and explained that he had entered the tower to investigate a fire on the roof and ended up locked, offering his services as an investigator to the Assassins.[REF 031] Climbing the tower up to the roof,[REF 056] the Assassin found a plaque detailing that a fire inspection had been recently undertaken there by Leonardo's ally, Sir [[Pierre Taillard]], chevalier de Bayard, himself.[REF 019] They also retrieved a piece of fabric with an embroidered red lion found near the plaque.[REF 165]


==Appearances==
Perhaps, the strangest aspect connecting each of these various sightings is the fact that, in every case, visual descriptions of each Sage are remarkably similar. So similar, in fact, that one wouldn't be faulted for assuming they ware talking about a single, immortal man. However, in two of the seven citations, explicit mention is made of their death and burial.

Business took a turn for the worse after he met and fell in love with the [[Templars|Templar]], [[Jing Lang]], who persuaded him to divulge knowledge of the location of buried treasure with which he and Upton planned to fund their retirement.
In May 1519, members of the local chapter of the [[Assassins]] visited Ebury Manor as part of their search for the clues to the [[haven]]s [[Leonardo da Vinci]] hid in the city.[REF GAME] At that time, the inhabitants of the manor had strong ties with the organization of detentions and guards at the [[Tower of London]], where [[Thomas More]] was being kept.

Upon his father's death at sea in 1706, Woodes inherited his family's prosperous shipping company, which he took to managing with great passion. Between 1704 and 1707 Rogers' fortunes and family grew, and by the time he was twenty-seven his marriage to Sarah Whetstone had produced one son and two daughters.

'''Peterhouse''' is a constituent college of the {{Wiki|University of Cambridge}} in [[England]].<ref name="Wiki">{{WP|Peterhouse, Cambridge}}</ref>


==History==
By the end of 1707, however, his business had suffered great losses by [[raid]]ing [[France|French]] forces, giving Rogers the idea to recoup these dreadful losses himself. Knocking about Bristol in search of a partner for this endeavor, he soon found himself in the company of [[William Dampier]], an old friend and unlucky [[Captain]] who suggested setting out on a [[privateer]]ing expedition, one that would range far and wide about the [[Americas|New World]]. In 1708, Rogers made the necessary arrangements and set out as Captain of his own vessel, on a difficult voyage that would last over three years.
In May 1519, members of the local chapter of the [[Assassins]] visited Peterhouse as part of their search for the clues to the [[haven]]s [[Leonardo da Vinci]] hid in [[London]].[REF GAME] Having been tasked with locating which building [[Thomas More]] was being kept in at the tower of London, an Assassin travelled to Peterhouse, [[Cambridge]] seeking allies of More.[REF P10] There, they attended a talk by [[Richard Croke]], a disciple of [[Desiderius Erasmus]].[REF 171] Croke, a friend of More, had spent the last few weeks doing his own investigation on the matter, managing to figure out that his friend was being kept somewhere between Martin Tower and Well Tower, which he relayed to the Assassin.[REF CV28] While still at the university, the Assassin interacted with a group of students, collecting information on everything related to More's enprisonment and discussing the Tower of London with a specialist on urban planning,[REF 100] acquiring a section of the prison's floor plans.[REF 194]


==Appearances==
Along this course Rogers met with many successes and failures. In 1709, off the western coast of [[South America]], he found and rescued a marooned sailor by the name of {{Wiki|Alexander Selkirk}}, a sailor who had spent nearly 4 years living in isolation and who would serve as the inspiration for the book "{{Wiki|Robinson Crusoe}}" just a few years later.

==References==
Soon after Selkirk's recovery, Rogers' fleet engaged an enemy vessel in open combat—a skirmish that earned him a [[pistol]] shot to the left side of his face and a mangled heel. Neither wound was enough to remove him from command however, and he continued serving as captain until his return to England in late 1711. To commemorate this return, he had an operation to remove the offending bullet from his upper palate.

Now in poor health but high spirits, he set about writing his memoirs. Upon their publication a few years, they were an immediate success, and proved a great source of income. But this brief glory was offset by the sudden death of his son, a tragedy compounded some months later by his wife's decision to leave him. Also at this time, Rogers was sued by former shipmates for allegedly hoarding goods and money plundered from enemy vessels. Rogers assembled a defense, but lost the case.

In 1713, itching to return to sea, he organized passage to [[Madagascar]] claiming to be a [[merchant]] in the [[Slavery|slave trade]], but with the intended purpose of reconnoitering the rumored [[Piracy|pirate]] colonies established there. When he arrived in Madagascar after months of hard sailing, he found that the legends of the pirate town "[[Libertalia]]" had been exaggerated one-hundredfold. The pirates in Madagascar were sickly and few and desperate for help. After spending just a few months here, Rogers set sail for England, a failure in his own mind.

Berruguete, [[Michelangelo]]'s pupil, revealed that he had traded letters with Leonardo through his master, since his big plan was to introduce {{Wiki|Florentine painting}} to Spain, and he had been entrusted with half a tile.[REF CV6] Pisano, who claimed to be responsible for introducing ''azulejos'' to the {{Wiki|Iberian Peninsula}}, had been friends with Leonardo and was deeply saddened by his death. He had discussed the ceramic techniques required for crafting ''azulejos'' with da Vinci and had also been entrusted with a half tile.[REF CV33] After recognizing da Vinci's prudence in dividing the clues among his allies in Seville, the Assassin received both halves from the artists.[REF CV39]

At some point prior to May 1519, Bayard met [[Leonardo da Vinci]] and became the artist's friend and ally.

'''Augsburg''' is the third-largest city in {{Wiki|Bavaria}}, [[Germany]].<ref>{{WP|Augsburg}}</ref> It was one of the nine cities [[Leonardo da Vinci]] selected to hide his research on the [[haven]]s in 1519.[REF GAME]
 
==History==
Just before his death in 1519, Leonardo da Vinci, afraid of possible interception, hid encoded information with trusted friends scattered around [[Europe]] under express instructions to destroy it should the [[Assassins]] not be able to contact them within a month of his death.[REF LETTER] After a first round of clues was uncovered by the [[Italian Brotherhood of Assassins]] in the cities of [[Florence]], [[Venice]] and [[Rome]], they then contacted the local Brotherhood chapter at Augsburg, passing along a letter from Leonardo.[REF CV17] Leonardo's letter about Augsburg informed the Assassins that the city is still resonating with the 95 theses that dissident theologian [[Martin Luther]] had plastered on the door of its churchs to encourage a {{Wiki|Reformation}} and, though the Brotherhood usually did not involve itself in matters of religion, one of the theses could correspond to [[the Creed]] and they should discuss it with Luther.[REF MINI-MAP AUGSBURG] Having received the quest, the local chapter sent agents to five landmarks to investigate.
 
Considering it relevant to the affair, Assassins visited two of the churches in the city, ''[[Dom Mariä Heimsuchung]]''[REF P5] and the ''[[Basilika St Ulrich und Afra]]''.[REF P13] For the former, they entered through an open window and, during their search, noted something fixed against a wall in the room beneath the spire.[REF 166] A closer inspection revealed these to be a section of the theses, containing some of the most controverse among them.[REF 008] At the ''Basilika'', the Assassin picked the lock to a side door[REF 154] leading to a study, where another section of the theses previously affixed to the church's door was being kept.[REF 004]
 
At [[Atelier Holbein]],[REF P24] an Assassin spoke to [[Hans Holbein the Elder]], who did not see eye to eye with Luther's views and claimed that he and his {{Wiki|Hans Holbein the Younger|son}}<!- Considering he says "son" singular, this implies that Ambrosius Holbein has already passed.-- have been "fighting" against the reformation in their own way, slipping in their demands into some of their paintings.[REF 111] Examining some of the completed paintings by the Holbein family more closely[REF CV15] led the Assassin to notice that a panel in the background of the ''{{Wiki|Portrait of Bonifacius Amerbach}}'' showed some of the thesis.[REF 055] [[Greta]], an illuminator who worked as an assistant to Holbein, overheard the dialogue and, having both recently finished her apprenticeship and a wish for adventure, offered to join the Assassin in their quest.[REF 003]
 
One Assassin elected to go to the ''[[Wassertürme]]'',[REF P33] one of the water towers serving the city, where they located old inscriptions left behind by the Brotherhood quite some time before. Surmising that the intention had been to show that the location of the many water towers had a specific meaning,[REF 148] they decided to check a diagram of the water management system,[REF CV1] being led to a point in town where they located a plaque adorned with the Creed under a tree.[REF 043]
 
Tracking down Martin Luther to ''[[Die Fuggerei]]'',[REF P2] a recently-opened public housing complex, the Assassins paid him a visit. Luther had been aware of the Brotherhood, but seemed surprised to hear that their philosophies were compatible, requesting proof that the Creed could be conciliated with his Reformation.[REF 026] Matching the last sentence in the plaque found following the water towers ("By protecting the weakest, we become stronger.") to Luther's 44th thesis ("By the very exercise of benevolence, benevolence grows and man becomes better."),[REF 044] the Assassins were able to convince the theologian that the modern preocupations of the Reformation and the Creed were compatible, and handed them the translucid sheet with a line Leonardo had given him for safe keeping.[REF 070]

He then taked them with winning over his trust by reconstructing his coat of arms.[REF MINI-MAP GRENOBLE] Having received the quest, the local chapter sent agents to four landmarks to investigate.
 
At the ''[[Tour de l'Isle]]'',[REF P6] an Assassin ovearheard someone yelling for help through a locked door and promptly picked the lock,[REF 115] releasing a man who had been in the dark cellar.[ref 034] [[Jean (inspector)|Jean]], an inspector, thanked his saviour and explained that he had entered the tower to investigate a fire on the roof and ended up locked, offering his services as an investigator to the Assassin.[REF 031] Climbing the tower up to the roof,[REF 056] the Assassin found a plaque detailing that a fire inspection had been recently undertaken there by Bayard himself.[REF 019] They also retrieved a piece of fabric with an embroidered red lion found near the plaque.[REF 165]
 
One Assassin went to the fortified mansion at ''[[Ferme de Vaulnaveys]]'',[REF P22] infiltrating the location and blending in with the workers[REF 040] by disguising as a servant. Having followed a team of workers attending to a group of dignitaries on vacation[REF 041] and learning through subtle interrogation that these aristocrats were known friends and allies of da Vinci,[REF CV42] the Assassin talked their way into being the one serving them tea.[REF 041] While alone with the three dignitaries, [[Clément Marot]], [[Marguerite of Navarre]] and [[François Rabelais]], the Assassin revealed themselves, though was met with some skepticism, leading to the trio testing them with a riddle each.[REF CV42] Being able to answer correctly pleased the dignitaries, who collectively agreed to allow the Assassin to meet with Bayard, handing them a fragment of the coat of arms they would need to do so.[REF 030]
 
Seeking to gather information at the ''[[Place de la Granaterie]]'', the Assassins investigated three leads.[REF P31] An old man at the square mentioned that Bayard's coat of arms featured a red lion, which he states represented Taillard completely.[REF 127] His feelings towards the town's protector was not shared by all, however, as a nearby wall seem to make fun of Bayard. His coat of arms was included in the inscribings at one point, to be used as a base for parodies, but had since been erased, probably by the authorities.[REF060] A drunk soldier on a break also proved to be a good source of intel, with the Assassin directing the conversation to the right places.[REF 135] From him, they learned not only  more about the coat of arms, receiving a fabric fragment similar to it,[REF CV29] but also heard that Bayard had dislocated his right soldier while supressing a mutiny some days prior, but kept on fighting.[REF CV36]
 
Having uncovered the complete picture of Bayard's coat of arms, the Assassins went to ''[[Église Saint-Laurent]]''.[REF P1] There they located a secret mechanism inside a panel in a wall under a discreet niche.[REF 131] Reconstructing the coat of arms in the mechanism, they unlocked a door leading down[REF 087] into the ''[[Crypte Saint-Oyard]]'', where Bayard awaited to test them.[REF P16] Before the Assassin could even speak, Bayard lunged into combat.[REF 126] Exploiting Bayard's injured soldier allowed the Assassin to keep up with the French military leader and he eventually stopped the fight, satisfied with the Assassin's performance.[REF 075] Bayard revealed that though Leonardo had mentioned the Assassin was a worthy opponent, he believed that words should be proven with actions.

[[File:AC3 Trinket map.png|thumb|A map with trinket locations marked]]
A '''talisman''' or '''amulet''' is an object ascribed with religious or magical powers with the intended purpose of protection for the individuals for whom they are made. They are often worn as portable objects in many ways, but can also be installed permanently in architecture.<ref>{{WP|Talisman}}</ref> Often of small size, they can also be referred to as '''trinkets'''.<ref>{{WT|trinket}}</ref>
 
==History==
When the [[Hidden Ones|Hidden One]] [[Basim Ibn Ishaq]] pursued the [[Order of the Ancients]] in 9th century [[Baghdad]], he carried and wore a number of talismans, some of which he bought from local [[merchant]]s while others were treasures acquired by solving [[Enigma]]s throughout the city.<ref name="ACM">''[[Assassin's Creed: Mirage]]''</ref>
 
Both [[Fujibayashi Naoe]] and [[Yasuke]] collected a number of trinkets and amulets while opposing the [[Sanzoku Ippa]],<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Shadows]] - [[Claws of Awaji]]''</ref> the [[Shinbakufu]], and the puppeteer behind both groups, the [[Templars|Templar Order]] in [[Sengoku period|Sengoku era]] [[Japan]].<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Shadows]]''</ref>
 
In the 18th century, numerous trinkets were scattered around the [[Davenport Homestead]], the [[Frontier]], [[Boston]], and [[New York City]]. The [[American Brotherhood of Assassins|Colonial Assassin]] [[Ratonhnhaké:ton]] collected several of these and gave them to the man known only as "[[Peg Leg]]" in exchange for letters from [[William Kidd]]. These letters ultimately led to a map which revealed Kidd's treasure.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed III]]'' - [[Oak Island (memory)]]</ref>

Transcription[edit | edit source]

For a handful of coin, "Dancers" can be employed to distract guards and interfere with ongoing fights. They might also have some incredible stories of their own to tell, if only you'd bother to listen.

Sailors flush with rum and the heat of the sun, these Drunkards can be useful in a few ways. First as blend groups that allow Edward to hide in plain sight, and secondly as allies in the event of a scuffle. But remember to bring a bit of coin if you want them to fight alongside you, as these pirates won't risk their lives for free.

Already a global power, the Spanish defeated powerful adversaries such as the Aztecs and Incas in the Americas by exploiting existing conflicts and rivalries between tribes and nations between the 15th and 18th centuries. Acquisitive and protective of the supply of precious metals its new colonies afforded it, the Spanish Empire enthusiastically participated in the Atlantic slave trade and defended its trade routes aggressively. Even after its defeat in the War of the Spanish Succession, the 18th century was nevertheless one of prosperity for the Spanish Empire, as their trade reputation grew steadily under Bourbon oversight, and continued to grow at an extraordinary rate until the 1780s.

Often used interchangeably, there are a number of important distinctions to make between these different kinds of swashbucklers... Pirates: Criminals on the open sea who use coercion, intimidation and violence to rob innocent people of their cargo and transport. The term pirate is a catch-all and may be used generally to refer to all who perform acts of larceny on the open ocean. Pirates have been a problem since the advent of long-distance ocean travel; every age has seen its share of pirates, and every age has cursed their name and romanticized their cause. During the so-called "Golden Age of Piracy" (roughly 1650 to 1725), the majority of pirates were from the British Isles. Most were young men in their 20s and almost all had already gained some experience as sailors prior to falling into piracy. Buccaneers: Though often used as a synonym for Pirates now, the term Buccaneer refers more specifically to a group of pirates who lived and operated in the West Indies in the middle of the 17th century. Best known for attacking settlements and fortifications on land in large groups, the Buccaneers derived their name from the French Boucanier -- an instrument used for smoking strips of meat over an open fire, a favorite sort of sustenance for these terrestrial pirates. Privateers: Non-commissioned sailors who attack and rob, having been given a Letter of Marque by their King or a royal official such as a Governor. Thus the distance between a Pirate and a Privateer is but a hair's breath of difference -- Pirates simply sail for one monarch fewer.

Taíno refers to a group of related languages and cultures widespread across the Caribbean at the time of European arrival. Broadly speaking, they consisted of the Ciboney or Western Taíno of Cuba, Jamaica and the Bahamas; the Classic Taíno of Hispaniola and Borikén (the indigenous name of Puerto Rico); and the Eastern Taíno of the Antilles. A Taíno cacique or chief demonstrated rank by carrying an object forged from guanín, a unique indigenous alloy made out of copper, silver, and gold, noted for its lustrous shine. The term "tabaco" from which we also derive from a Taíno word, as tobacco was cultivated on the islands and its usage noted by Spanish explorers. Other English words with a Taíno origin include barbecue, canoe, hurricane, iguana, and potato. Other, non-Taíno indigenous groups of the island include the Ciguaya, Macorix, and Kalinago or Caribs, for whom the Caribbean Sea is named.

There were several attempts to found a town near the Havana Bay in the early 1500s. A settlement was established by the Spanish Conquistador Diego Velázquez de Cuéllar around 1514. The city sits on a bay that opens to the Gulf Stream and thus became a natural stopping point between Europe and the Americas. In the earliest stages of the golden age of piracy Havana was burnt to the ground by French corsair, Jacques de Sores. By the 1700s, Havana had become a large, heavily fortified port city where Spanish treasure ships would dock on their way to Europe. Pirates lurked on the approaches to the city, hoping to capture these same ships.

Originally founded as another Charles-Towne, the city was renamed Nassau in honor of King William III of the house of Orange-Nassau. This city has a particularly colorful past: In 1706 the city's officially appointed Governor skipped town, thus severing the Crown's direct control over the Bahamas. The islands languished for almost a decade in the hands of British citizens with little or no interest in Statesmanship. By 1713, the entire region had become a haven for pirates and it was in this period that Benjamin Hornigold declared Nassau to be a pirate republic. He proclaimed himself governor and thereafter every pirate of any sense and reputation used Nassau as a base of operation, transforming this small city of barely 1000 residences into a "nest of infamous bastards", according to the Governor of Bermuda.

Dating generally from the Mayan Classic period (AD 250 - 900), most Mayan ruins can be found throughout the Yucatán peninsula and Central America. Mayan Temples have steep stone steps and a platform at the top for wooden crowning structures. Mayan architecture is composed with a sophisticated eye to decoration, often using wall paintings and elaborate bas-relief stone carvings. Mayan arches forego the use of a keystone, instead creating a triangle-like arch known as a corbel vault.

The Governor's Mansion housed the acting Spanish governor in addition to prison facilities. A new governor's mansion was constructed across the square in 1791.

This drinking spot, named after "The King of Pirates" Henry Avery, was highly popular among gritty seafarers in the early 18th century. Legend had it that Avery himself once had a financial stake in several establishments throughout the West Indies, but that appears to be nothing more than self-promotion.

The schooner was a class of ship used as a general sailing vessel by both navies and civilian operators, providing light firepower and ample speed.

The brig was a class of ship bearing two square-rigged masts, and represented a compromise between larger, more powerful ships, and the faster, but less well-armed ones.

The man o' war was a type of large warship purpose built for warfare, boasting multiple gun decks, and crewed by heavily armed professional soldiers.

El Dorado was a brig that formed part of the Spanish Treasure Fleet. The fleet was destroyed in a hurricane, with the El Dorado its lone surviving vessel.

The Jackdaw was a brig captained by the pirate-turned-Assassin Edward Kenway, who named it after the small, swift bird of his native Wales. The ship was known as El Dorado before Edward and his future quartermaster Adéwalé captured it from its fleet.

The Royal Fortune was a man o' war captained by the pirate and Sage Bartholomew Roberts, who elected to keep and renamed it after he captured it as the Nosso Senhor da Compreensão from the Portuguese Navy.

In the Americas, the term ‘black panther’ generally refers to a melanistic jaguar. They are not a separate species, but a color morph of the spotted form. Black jaguars form less than ten percent of jaguars. Black jaguars can be found in Isla Providencia and Pinos Isle.

The cat is a small carnivorous mammal with a flexible body, sharp claws, and quick reflexes. Cats have long been domesticated, and are favored as pets for their affectionate independence, and playful natures. Sailors often keep cats aboard ships to deal with rats and other vermin.

The Crocodile is a large, tropical-dwelling tetrapod. Crocodiles can measure up to 15 feet long, weigh 2000 pounds, and live to be 70 years old. This prehistoric-looking predator preys on birds, fish, insects and other reptiles. Crocodiles have been known to indulge in cannibalistic behaviour. Because of this, they live in groupings of the same size. Not to be confused with alligators, crocodiles are bigger, lighter in color, and have narrower snouts. Although known to attack humans, the crocodile is more likely to flee than to react aggressively when approached. Crocodiles are most commonly found in Nassau, Long Bay, and Matanzas.

Deer are large hoofed ruminants notable for having two large and two small hooves on each foot. Males have antlers while the females do not, with the exception of a single species where the females also grow antlers. Deer are selective feeders, eating plant food low in fiber content and high in protein such as young grass, herbs, woody shoots, and bark. Various subspecies of deer can be found in the Caribbean bioregion. The red brocket deer, for example, is found in Trinidad and Tobago and the Key deer, introduced by colonists, inhabits the Florida Keys. Deer are most commonly found in Kingston, Salt Lagoon, and Santanillas.

Frigate birds are large seabirds with long wings, forked tails, and slender bodies. They generally inhabit tropical and subtropical oceans, often nesting on remote islands. Frigate birds are skilled fliers, and are known to steal food from other seabirds.

Found across the world in tropical and temperate waters, the hammerhead's unusual head shape gives it increased sensory ability to detect its prey. The hammerhead does not attack humans, although it can be lethal if provoked. Hammerhead sharks can be found in the Eleuthera and Gibara regions.

Considered one of the loudest animals on earth, the small-sized Howler Monkey generates a siren-like howl that can be heard from a distance of 3 miles (5km). They are not aggressive and are popular as pets in The West Indies. Howler monkeys are most commonly found in Kingston, Cape Bonavista, and Long Bay.

The hutia is a large rodent unique to the Caribbean basin which varies in size, and can form distinct species from island to island. Hutias are often hunted by locals to be eaten in a spiced stew. Hutias are most commonly found in Cayman Sound and Long Bay.

Iguanas are large, herbivorous lizards found throughout the Caribbean islands. The common iguana eats only leaves, flowers and fruit. Despite their at times fierce appearance they are not aggressive, and typically flee when threatened. However, they can lash their tails and bite if provoked. Iguana are found in Great Inagua, Andreas Island, and Abaco Island.

The largest feline in the Western hemisphere, the jaguar is distinguished by its compact and powerful build, its agility, and its unique killing method of biting directly into the skull to pierce the brain. The Mayans believed that the jaguars could carry messages to and from the afterworld. Jaguars are most commonly found in Cape Bonavista, Long Bay, Tulum, and Principe.

Although related to sharks, manta rays are harmless. They can be quite large (up to 30 ft (9m) wide) and feed on small fish and plankton, funneling food into their mouth using cephalic flaps extending from the eyes. Manta rays, which are found all over the world, have the unique ability to leap from the water into the air to escape attackers.

Monkeys in the Caribbean are primarily an introduced African species called the green monkey, although up to the 17th Century these still shared territory with the now extinct Jamaican monkey. Both species were omnivores that ate a variety of foraged foods including fruit, seeds, flowers, insects, and smaller animals like frogs and birds. Monkeys were viewed as pests by farmers as they continually raided crops, but were favoured by locals and sailors who adopted them as mischievous, intelligent pets.

The ocelot is a wild cat that typically has yellow fur with dark stripes in the manner of a jaguar. Ocelots are nocturnal and range from the size of domestic cats up to four feet (1.2 meters) in length. Ocelot hides are coveted by leather workers for their ease of working, patterned fur, soft texture, and durability. Ocelots can be found in Cumberland Bay and Abaco Island.

The Caribbean basin provides an excellent climate for both land and sea turtles. Turtles are reptiles with a hard, protective upper shell called a carapace. Although they are natural swimmers and can stay submerged for up to 7 hours while resting, turtles breathe air. Despite being awkward and slow moving on land, they go ashore to lay their eggs.

White coats in animals can be due to a specific genetic mutation or albinism. The genetic mutation that yields a white jaguar also results in a more aggressive animal, making them dangerous as well as rare. White jaguars can be found at Great Inagua.

The wild pig, or boar, is a large cousin of the domesticated pig covered by hairy bristles. They were introduced by Europeans to the Caribbean basin (Columbus himself brought eight pigs with him from Spain). Wild pigs flourished in the island environment and were hunted by sailors and pirates to provide salted pork on their voyages. Wild pigs are most commonly found in Nassau, Great Inagua, and Cape Bonavista.

So-called because of their short snouts and their tendency to head-butt prey, bull sharks are commonly found in warm, shallow waters. They are extremely aggressive and dangerous to humans. The females are larger than the males, and adults measure well over seven feet (2.15m) long. Bull sharks can be found in the Dry Tortuga, Gibara, and Punta Guarico regions.

Found throughout Central and South America, capuchin monkeys are small and highly intelligent. They eat almost anything -- nuts, fruits, small birds, frogs, clams, etc. Many pirates favored capuchins as pets. Capuchins can be found in Matanzas and Misteriosa.

The largest predatory fish in the world, the great white's lethal aspect is due to its nearly 300 serrated teeth arranged in rows. Great whites have been known to attack humans, but usually more out of curiosity than hunger -- "sample biting" and then releasing their victims. The great white reaches an average length of 15 feet (4.6m). Great white sharks can be found in the Cruz and Serranilla regions.

Known for emitting complex sequences of haunting moans, the humpback is a large whale that reaches up to 62 feet (19 meters) in length. They migrate from the poles to the equator seasonally and travel in pods. Humpback whales can be found in the Castillo De Jagua and Navassa regions.

Called the Grampus by sailors in the 18th century, the killer whale, or Orca, is part of the dolphin family. Known for their ferociously deadly predation, killer whales feast on seals, sea-lions and even other whales. They hunt in pods in the manner of wolf packs and are found throughout the world's seas. Killer whales can be found in the Cruz and Conttoyor regions.

Red howler monkeys can be located on Isla Providencia.

Born: 1692, Trinidad

Died: Unknown

Born to enslaved Ogoni parents in Yoruba, Adéwalé was sold to the owner of a prosperous plantation before his teens. He remained on this plantation, working the fields, until his mid teens, always scheming of ways to escape his predicament, but uneasy with the prospect of living life as a fugitive.

Then fortune struck, giving Adéwalé the sign he needed. At some point near his 16th birthday, a group of buccaneers raided the plantation, robbing it of raw cane, refined sugar, and as many reales as they could find. Seeing in this an opportunity, Adé grabbed a crate of sugar and hauled it aboard one of the longboats the buccaneers had rowed ashore. Surprised to see a slave among them, the buccaneers were nevertheless thankful for the aid, and welcomed Adé among them.

Adé sailed with this first group of men for many years, quickly learning the ways of a seaman, grateful for the chance to develop his own skills and chase his own passions. And though his life among buccaneers was not free of the usual bigotry of the era, Adé found the prejudice to be more confrontational than restrictive.

In 1715, misfortune struck a cruel blow when the ship Adé was aboard, struck a shallow sandbar near the port of Havana. The buccaneers—mostly British at the time—tried desperately to free the trapped vessel, but after catching sight of an approaching Spanish Galleon, abandoned ship only to be torn apart by schools of circling bull sharks. Adé made peace with his fate, and stood his ground.

Taken to Havana for questioning and inspection, Spanish authorities eventually decided to send Adéwalé to Spain, where they felt he would make an excellent interpreter, owing to his fluent command of Spanish, English, and French. Some weeks later, they loaded him into of the Galleons that made up their perennial treasure convoy, en route to Seville.

Born: 1660s, Yucatan Peninsula
Died: c.1745, Yucatan Peninsula Named for the Mayan god of hunting, Ah Tabai's given name remains a mystery, and very little is known about his earliest decades. The only child he is known to have fathered died before the age of ten. What little else we know about him comes from his own mouth; from the stories he told those who knew him. When speaking about his own past, he avoids personal details in favor of abstractions and hints. He frequently speaks of his love and admiration for the tragic history of his people, and used these stories to illustrate the complex intersections of cultures and religions, frequently pointing out the fact that "From within and without come enemies and allies alike. Nothing in life is guaranteed, except surprise..." It is not known how early Ah Tabai acquired the title of Mentor, nor how large his impact was on the Assassins of the West Indies. However, that he maintained semi-regular contact with the Assassins in the British colonies to the north, in various parts of Europe and Africa, and in China. He was instrumental in opening his branch to men and women from all walks of life - mostly Europeans, Africans, and those Native to the area. As a native Mayan himself, rumors and stories of the ancient Observatory were not foreign to Ah Tabai. So when in 1713 rumors of a new "Sage" began to surface, Ah Tabai took it upon himself to locate the man, believing the Assassins should be the protectors of the ancient and mysterious place. He sent word far and wide to as many Assassin outposts as possible, hoping their network of spies and informants would lead them to their prize. But after two years, there was no word. Then, in early 1715, an experienced British Assassin named Duncan Walpole arrived at Ah Tabai's encampment, initially expressing a desire to train under the Mentor directly. Ah Tabai found the request odd but flattering, for Walpole had already achieved a level of Mastery few assassins ever reached. After many months of intensive training, Ah Tabai came to consider Duncan Walpole as one of his most trusted colleagues. Then in June of 1715, word arrived that the Templars had located and imprisoned the Sage on Spanish lands in the far south. Seeing an opportunity to cripple his arch-enemies, Ah Tabai entrusted Duncan Walpole with the task of rallying various Assassins around the West Indies and leading an assault on the Templar prison ship en route to Havana. Duncan Walpole agreed to this task... and was never heard from again. It was only after Edward Kenway's disastrous meddling in Havana that Ah Tabai was made aware of the full extent of Walpole's betrayal.

Born: 1702, Ireland
Died: Unknown Anne was barely a teen when she left her native Cork in Ireland for the British colonies, and by sixteen she was en route to West Indies at side of her new husband, Mr. Jack Bonny, a gentle but sturdy young man in his early 20s. The pair arrived in Nassau in April of 1716, settling down with an unclear idea of what shape their lives might take. Jack eventually found work on one of the small plantations there, while Anne cultivated her ability to loaf and daydream. Unfortunately, her beauty, aloofness, and complete indifference to propriety made her the object of more romantic attention than she had ever known or cared for. Within a year of arriving in Nassau, the Bonnys' marriage was in shambles, a union only in name. While Jack disappeared further into his work, Anne grew more confident and sociable, eventually taking a job as a barmaid at the popular Old Avery tavern in the center of Nassau. And though she took on a few lovers in the next few years, it was mostly out of envy and spite that the rabble of Nassau branded Anne a harlot and a tease. But with no high society to shun or shame her, Anne's desirability only increased on the strength of these rumors.

orn: 1680, England
Died: ???? Known variously by different sources as Thatch, Teach, Theach, Tache, Titche, Teatch, Tack, and more, we are fairly certain Edward Thatch was born in or around Bristol and took to the sea at an early age, most likely in his teens. It is also speculated that he arrived in the West Indies quite soon after leaving England. If this was indeed the case, Ed Thatch would have seen his fair share of the War of Spanish Succession, a protracted fight between most of the Empires of Europe that pitted Hapsburg Austia and its British ally against Bourbon France and Spain. In these early years, from 1700 to 1713, Thatch was a privateer or at the very least a merchant seaman, doing his part for the crown—Queen Anne at the time. But with the Treaty of Utrecht bestowing peace upon a troubled Europe in 1713, Thatch and his fellow sailors found themselves far from home and out of work. Thus, they turned to piracy as a means of sustaining themselves. In the ensuing years, Thatch befriended a captain named Benjamin Hornigold and soon after joined his crew as quartermaster, at some point between late 1714 and early 1716. Settling in Nassau, Thatch, Hornigold, and the rest of the "Flying Gang" as these pirates called themselves, began cooking up schemes far larger than most pirates of the era dared dream. Wanting nothing less than a country of their own, they worked to turn Nassau into a place of liberty and freedom for all who desired an escape from the bonds of imperial rule.

Born: 1693, Wales
Died: ???? Edward James Kenway was born on the 10th of March in Swansea, Wales, to Bernard Kenway of Manchester and Linette Hopkins of nearby Cardiff. By Edward's 10th birthday, his father had moved the family to a small farm just outside Bristol, a nearby port town in the southwest of England. This relocation had a depressing effect on young Edward's mood. He grew restless from a lack of contact with old friends and struggled to find an outlet for his limitless energy. By his teens he was spending more and more time in the city away from his farm, where the lure of excitement overrode prudence. By age sixteen, he had substituted a career as a successful farmer for a life of hopeless tomfoolery, frequently shirking his responsibilities to his family in favor of rough company. In late 1711, at the age of seventeen, Edward met Caroline Scott, a woman of modest but steady means. Their friendship began cautiously, as Caroline's hand had already been promised to the boorish son of a wealthy East India Company executive. But Edward's charms eventually won out, and he and Caroline were married within a year of their meeting; a union that angered her father, and got the whole of Bristol talking. In the earliest months of their marriage, Edward resolved to do well by his wife and provide for her as he believed a man in his position should. But his grandiose dreams and exaggerated opinion of himself prevented him from taking immediate responsibility for their well-being. And after only a year, he had stumbled back into his worst habits - drinking, fighting and idleness. It was in this dark period that Edward revived an old idea of joining a privateering fleet sailing for the West Indies, with the aim of making war against the Spanish and collecting unchecked sums of gold and cargo. This, he told his wife, was their path to quick riches. Being a sensible and prudent woman, Caroline discouraged these fanciful ideas. By the summer of 1712, Caroline understood that her husband's departure was inevitable. She wanted no further part of Edward's reckless plan, and so left him to live with her parents. Stunned by this sudden turn, Edward was determined to earn his fortune fast and prove himself as capable as he always claimed he was. He left for the West Indies barely one month later, where he soon fell in with the privateer Benjamin Hornigold and his quartermaster, Ed Thatch. Edward spent the first half of 1713 sailing with these two seasoned sailors, on regular sweeps of the windward passage. But that year, fate threw him another upset. With the signing of the treaty of Utrecht, all hostile actions between the major empires came to an end and the prospects of British privateers dried up. Now poor, unemployed, and thousands of miles from home, Edward and his colleagues settled on the island of New Providence in the Bahamas to reconsider their options. These were fanciful days for Edward. He discovered in the small town of Nassau a life quite unlike that which he had left behind. The atmosphere of wild and noisy freedom in this small stateless encampment overwhelmed and captivated him. The drinking, the gaming, the women, the aimless desire to simply live as one pleased. And yet, as carefree as he was, his beloved Caroline was never far from his mind. If he could make something of himself in the West Indies—working a sugar plantation, perhaps—he might win her back after all his time away. But in absence of true conviction, habit takes hold fast; and it was only a matter of time before Edward set back out to sea with his mates, to live the life they knew best; no longer privateers—legal and sanctioned—but as pirates now, with nary a whit of loyalty to kin and country, earning his fortune by the sword and pistol, praying his end was never too near.

Born: 1682, Jamaica
Died: ???? Of the few infamous pirates to call the West Indies his birthplace, Jack Rackham was born in Jamaica at the height of Port Royal's boom as a den of scoundrels. This would likely explain his atrophied moral compass, for he was frequently drunk, rarely serious about anything, and always chasing women. He used his outrageous and offensive charm to keep out of most trouble. But a strategist and fighter he was not. Nicknamed "Calico" for his affinity for Indian and Asian prints, he was a terrible sailor and a worse pirate, given to flights of fancy and myopic ideas that served only himself, rather than solid strategic thinking. He was likely drunk for half of his adulthood, and had a weakness for women that trumped all basic needs, such as sleeping or eating. His disarming charm, dashing good looks, and his swift wit carried him far, but parties can only last so long before someone has to clean up after them.

Born: 1691, England
Died: ???? Daughter of Emmett and Elizabeth Scott, Caroline was born in Bristol, England, to a prosperous family of merchants and civil servants. Given a modest education by her father, she furthered her own studies in her own way, taking time to read as often as her familiar duties allowed. Splitting her time between this and helping her mother manage her father's affairs, she grew into a confident and level-headed woman with more skill and intelligence than her situation allowed her to exercise. Caroline first met Edward Kenway outside the Auld Shillelagh, in the aftermath of a drunken altercation. She had arrived to fetch one of her servants and there found Edward escorting the woman from the clutches of one of Bristol's more notorious cads. Thankful for his kindness, Caroline agreed to a second meeting on more equitable terms, hardly thinking a romance possible. And yet—against all odds—that is just what happened. Edward and Caroline grew quite close, and soon fell in love, quite much to the dismay of her father. Emmett Scott had already promised his daughter to the son of a wealthy East India Company executive, and made his displeasure apparent at every turn. But all his noise was to no avail. Caroline and Edward were married in 1712. For a time it seemed as though this odd pairing might produce a lasting union. But Edward's deep love for his wife was offset by his uncouth habits and reckless attention to responsibility. Not content to live a life of middle class drudgery, Edward dreamed large, and fixed on the idea that he could sail to the West Indies and fight as a Privateer against the Spanish. Or, barring that, buy some land and sow a sugar plantation. Caroline tried to dissuade her husband, but to no effect.

Born: 1680, England
Died: ???? A common refrain in any biography of a Golden Age Pirate goes something like this: "Very little is known about this man's early life..." And with Charles Vane it's no different. It is not known where he was born, or where he grew up, or when he first took to sea. But maybe that's just as well, for it further heightens the mystery of this strange, unstable man. Surely one of the most ornery and unstable of the "Flying Gang", the band of pirates who called Nassau their home for a time, Charles Vane began his career like most pirates of the era--honestly, as a privateer sailing for his King. Likely living in Jamaica in 1715, he was one of many aboard Henry Jennings' assault on a Spanish expedition to recover the gold from their ill fated wreck in 1715 off the coast of Florida. Barely a year later it had become impossible to keep up honest work as a privateer, as British Governors were skittish about breaking the terms of the Treaty of Utrecht, which called for a cessation of all aggression between the major empires. Having few other options, Vane sailed to Nassau where many of his former colleagues were now living. Quick to anger and ferociously mean, Charles Vane quickly earned himself a reputation as a difficult captain to sail under. At some point in 1717 or 1718, an old friend, "Calico" Jack Rackham joined his crew as quartermaster. The two remained partnered for some time, living and working out of Nassau with the likes of Benjamin Hornigold, Ed Thatch, and Henry Jennings.

Born: 1695, England
Died: ???? Even though not yet out of his teens, James Kidd was a cocky and confident lad with a brashness cultivated to counter his youth. He claimed to be the bastard son of the late William Kidd, the infamous privateer-turned-pirate who was captured and hanged by British authorities in 1701. Although James had no proof of this connection, his mother always insisted on it, claiming that she spent a single "panicked night of passion" with Captain Kidd just before his departure from London in 1695. Growing up fatherless and with a spendthrift mother did little to improve his prospects at leading a normal life, and at the age of 12 he found employment aboard merchant vessels sailing between the British colonies in North America and the West Indies. By the time he was 17 he called Jamaica his home, where he further honed his skills as a sailor here. Although he never sailed with the likes of Ben Hornigold, Ed Thatch, or Edward Kenway, James was among the first sailors to settle in Nassau, and was a central figure in its development as a pirate republic.

Born: Unknown, England
Died: ???? Of all the infamous West Indies pirates, Mary Read stands out as one of the most mysterious and inscrutable. No one is sure when she was born, with most speculation ranging over almost a decade, between 1685 and 1695. According to Charles Johnson—a frequently unreliable source—her mother began dressing Mary in boy's clothes from a very early age, with the hope of passing her off as another man's son. In her teens, Mary evidently harnessed her skill for disguise to secure a job aboard a ship. Taking to sea, she worked her way forward until she found a position in the British Navy. Still disguised as a man, she saw action in battle, though owing to the conflicting reports of her birth, which battle is uncertain. It was during these skirmishes that Mary met her first husband—so the author of the "General History of Pyrates" claims—a Flemish soldier who had evidently fought beside her. But this union was not fated to remain intact, as Mary's husband was killed soon after their marriage. With few reasons to remain in Europe, Mary sailed for the West Indies. It is unclear what transpired in the years following, but it is almost certain that she resumed the practice of dressing as a man. It is also assumed Mary continued working aboard ships, improving her skills as a sailor and swordsman. By 1715 or 1716, it was likely she had visited her fellow sailors in Nassau, though perhaps not for the same reasons...

Born: 1695, Cuba
Died: Unknown Born in Cuba, Assassin bureau leader Opía Apito was raised Taíno, among her mother's people, never knowing her father, a Spaniard. At twelve, her village was raided by the Spanish. Most of her community was kidnapped and killed. But Opía, the lone free survivor, fought and ran. She survived in hiding for close to a decade. Much of what we know of Opía is inseparable from legend. Her name, possibly self-given, is an amalgam of the Taíno words for "eternity" and "ghost." She claimed to be a direct descendant of the warrior Hatuey, who stood against the Spanish in the 16th Century. She was guided throughout her life by the mantra, Aji aya bom—better dead than a slave. In her early twenties, she was hired by the Assassins as a guide, and was soon adopted into their ranks. She delighted in a characteristic Taíno approach to strategy: preferring to harm the enemy by taking something from him in battle, that he might live to notice it missing. But as an Assassin she did not shrink from violence. True to her name, once promoted to Assassin Bureau leader, she built an agile and highly effective "ghost" bureau near the Cayman Islands, with virtually no physical footprint to speak of. We might regard it today as an early example of a terrorist cell, but she left no records and no descendants, and until now, history has held no record of it.

Born: 1688, Scotland
Died: Unknown Born in Scotland, Rhona Dinsmore was made for adventure. After suffering the lows of a troubled household–an absent father and a drunkard of a mother–Dinsmore left her home in Glasgow in her mid-teens. At nineteen, she found work amongst merchants in Bristol and remained at that post for nearly two years. By twenty-one, Dinsmore was trapped in a terrible marriage. She fled again and sought refuge in Boston, where she remained for six months, before moving on to the warmer climes of Jamaica. There she found it exceedingly difficult to find work among farmers, and finally took to the sea, ultimately finding her calling within the Assassin Brotherhood.

Born: 1688, Barbados Died: ???? Born into plentitude and wealth on Barbados, Stede Bonnet seemed destined for a life of pleasure and ease. The son of a successful and influential plantation owner, his early life was marked by tragedy when his parents died suddenly, leaving seven year-old Stede orphaned and in a perpetual state of melancholy. His inheritance of some 400 acres of land softened the blow caused by the loss of his parents, and by the time Stede was in his late teens, he had already restored the sugar plantation to a profitable state. He married young and set about starting a family as soon as possible, but owing to what some called a "disorder of the mind" he never found solace or comfort in these domestic trappings. To further complicate his unease, his firstborn son died in infancy, further amplifying his grief and stiming his restlessness. As a means of coping, he dreamed of going to sea and sailing about the world, meeting people, living life as a man free of the obligations thrust upon him. When Bonnet's ship was apprehended by the British Navy on suspicion of piracy, he was rescued by the pirate Edward Kenway who, with the help of Blackbeard and others, eventually influenced the affable and impressionable merchant into going on the account himself.

Born: 1688, England
Died: Unknown Upton Travers was born in England, in 1688, two years ahead of his brother, Vance Travers. Together, they traveled to the West Indies in search of their fortune. There they established a smuggling business, which they used to fund their growing involvement with the Assassin brotherhood. Although Vance was the more charismatic of the two Assassin brothers, Upton made up for it with his measured, sensible responses to life's challenges. However, every man has a breaking point, and Upton found his after Vance took up with the Chinese "Pirate Queen," Jing Lang, a Templar, and sought to steal the treasure on which they had staked their retirement before finally attempting fratricide. Depressed, Upton turned to alcohol, which may have been a factor in his retaliation. He ultimately had both Jing Lang and his brother dispatched with the help of Edward Kenway.

Born: 1682, Wales
Died: ????

Originally hailing from Wales, little is known about John Roberts, the real name of the man who would come to be known as "Black Bart" long after his death.

Most assume he went to sea at a very young age -- at 13 or so -- but there is no record of him in any historical documents until his noted appearance in 1718 aboard a merchant's ship, Barbadian in origin. Just a year later Roberts was pressed into piracy by the notorious Howell Davis while working aboard a slave ship under Captain Abraham Plumb. Though Roberts had likely not gone to sea with the intent of becoming a pirate, when the opportunity thrust itself upon him, Roberts was reported to have said 'A merry life, and a short one shall be my motto.'

A few months later Davis was killed in an ambush on the Portuguese Island of Príncipe, and Roberts was swiftly and unanimously elected to replace him. This was surely a testament to the man's natural charisma and leadership, for he had been a pirate only a few months. It was at this point he took the name "Bartholomew", likely naming himself for the infamous Bartholomew Sharpe, a pirate of some renown who had disappeared just two decades earlier.

One of the most intelligent and strategic pirates of the Golden Age, Roberts was a sturdy man, known to dress in fine clothes. Handsome, and carrying himself with a dignified but unpretentious air, he had dark hair to match his dark complexion, likely set from the almost two decades he had spent at sea. He often carried numerous pistols, each tied to one end of long silk sashes, which he kept slung over his shoulder.

Roberts' tactical ideas were usually radical, but thoughtfully considered. He never jumped into any scheme rashly, though his ideas seemed almost suicidal to those unacquainted with his methods. Ultimately responsible for the theft of around 400 ships in his three-year career, he bested every other pirate of the era by a factor of ten times or more, although it must be said that at least half of these boats were small periaguas and the like.

Born: Mid-1680s, England
Died: ???? Benjamin Hornigold was likely born in Norfolk, England. The first recorded instances of him are of his early exploits as a pirate in the West Indies around 1713-1714. Hornigold was one of the earliest pirates to emerge after the end of the War of the Spanish Succession, and one of the many hundreds of privateers who were left without gainful employment in the ensuing peace. Like many other British mariners, he spent much of his time in the Bahamas, eventually settling in Nassau. It was from there he launched his career as a full-fledged pirate, though he likely thought of himself as a privateer--in his earliest years, at least. A skilful sailor and strategist, Hornigold lacked some of the ruthlessness required to be a truly successful pirate, and until 1716, refused to attack English ships out of a sense of loyalty to his home country.

Born: Unknown
Died: Unknown Almost nothing is known about El Tiburón "The Shark" outside of his service as the loyal, mute bodyguard of Laureano de Torres y Ayala, the Grandmaster of the Caribbean Templars and the Governor of Cuba. The Shark's penchant for medieval armor and brutal violence cut a swathe of fear through Havana, leaving citizens and soldiers alike quivering in his blood soaked wake.

Born: 1682, England
Died: 1717, West Indies Hilary Flint was born to an aristocratic family, the youngest of three boys. The black sheep of the family, he sought solitude in his studies. Immersing himself in math and sciences, Flint discovered an abiding interest in explosives, earning him the label of "problem child". To correct his course, his parents enrolled him in military school, where he quicklyexceeded their expetations, working his way into the hearts of both teachers and students, as well as a few secret societies. After graduation, his connections and easy manner earned him access to Templar ranks where his obsession with firearms made him an important asset. Records reveal an ongoing relationship with Assassin Rhona Dinsmore, the full nature of which is uncertain. She vanishes from record after Flint's death at the age of 35.

Born: 1686, China
Died: 1717, Nassau Born to Chinese rebels, Jing Lang came into the world fighting, but survived to become a skilled diplomat with a flair for languages and a taste for discovery. Ambitious, Lang married the son of a General in the Qing dynasty, joining the Templar order, but severing ties with her family in the process. She served as a diplomatic advisor, until a shift in political tides provoked her escape into piracy. Over the next decade, she crossed every sea, developing a reputation for brutality that preceded her into most conflicts. In the West Indies, she fell under the spell of a rumored cache of treasure, and feigned a romantic relationship with one-time Assassin Vance Travers to gain access to it. She might have been successful had it not been for Travers' brother, Upton, an Assassin who schemed to have her killed, betraying his brother in the process. She died at the age of thirty.

Born: 1682, France
Died: ???? Nephew of the buccaneer Jean du Casse, Julien was born in Montpellier, France. He took after his uncle's example and took to sea at a young age, eventually joining him in a few skirmishes during the War of the Spanish Succession. Fighting on the side of the French, and by proxy, on behalf of King Philip of Spain, du Casse's skill as a gunner improved rapidly, even as he grew wildly disillusioned with the monarchy and its obsession with lineage and breeding over raw talent and skill. In 1704, ordered by his superior officers to join his uncle and hundreds of French troops in what would become known as the Battle of Vélez-Màlaga, du Casse opted instead to desert his post and seek his fortunes in the New World. At first he threw in with slave traders in Africa, and for a year made a modest profit off the venture. But he was never comfortable with the cruelty and detachment the job required, and so departed for the West Indies in search of yet another vocation. For the next 10 years, du Casse roamed the West Indies as a hired gun, working for whomever had the coin and confidence to pay him. Ever prizing the value of intelligence and skill over mere reputation and breeding, du Casse, eventually found his way into the company of Laureano Torres of Cuba, in whom he found a friend and confidant...

Born: 1675, England
Died: 1715, Kingston Born to an upper class family and educated in boarding schools from age five, Kenneth Abraham learned to fight for himself at an early age. Upon graduation, he entered the army and rose through the ranks, finally meeting the rank of Commander. His embrace of order and disciple drew him into the fold of the Templar Order, which offered him influence beyond that offered by his military career. From the age of thirty, he ascended its ranks in parallel to those of his military career by devoting himself to the promotion of order and peace. In 1715, the Assassin Anto infiltrated a Ball held by Abraham on his plantation, together with the pirate Edward Kenway. There, Abraham was assassinated by the pair, confronted in his final moments by the nemesis he had tried and failed to defeat. He remained, until his death, determined to rid the world of unpredictable and disorderly elements.

Born: 1645, Cuba
Died: ???? Born in Havana, but raised in Madrid, Spain, Laureano was of noble stock, the son of Tomas Torres y Ayala and Elvira de Quadros Castellanos. He joined the Spanish army in his late teens, and was later appointed as the governor of Spain's territories in Florida, a post he held from 1693 to 1699. He then returned to Europe to participate in the War of the Spanish Succession. In 1708, Torres was appointed as the governor of Cuba, a post he held for three years until he was accused of and arrested for corruption. He was acquitted of these charges, however, and managed to win a re-election bid in 1713. During his time in Cuba, he made many lasting improvements to the city, fortifying the island's defenses and introducing the production of tobacco there. He remained Governor until 1716, after which point he retired and devoted his life to charitable functions, such as building hospitals.

Born: 1630s, Amsterdam
Died: 1717, Kingston Laurens Prins (often anglicized as Laurence Prince) was a Dutchman from Amsterdam who spent the majority of his life in and around the West Indies. Operating out of Port Royal, Prins saw an incredible amount of action and adventure in his long life. Sailing as a privateer in the early days of the Golden Age of Piracy (1650s) he developed a reputation for courage fighting the Spanish on behalf of the British crown, sometimes bearing a letter of marque, often without. He even played a pivotal role in Sir Henry Morgan's infamous raid on Panama in 1671, for which he was roundly celebrated. Prins eventually retired from privateering and settled in a large acreage of land in Jamaica. Around this time he entered into the slave trade as a means of bolstering his wealth, an occupation he pursued well into his seventies. In 1717, his flagship slave galley, The Whydah, was attacked and captured by the pirate "Black Sam" Bellamy. He managed to survive the encounter, and fell back into his old occupation until his death some months later.

Born: 1689, Spain
Died: 1715, Pinos Isle Born in Spain, Lucia Márquez never knew her father. By the age of twelve she was supporting herself and her sisters on the streets, begging, borrowing, and stealing anything she could, all the while developing the skills of a master thief. At the age of seventeen, she was caught stealing a horse belonging to a high-ranking Templar, and wisely opted for training over jail time. The Templar life gave Marquez the focus she needed and she never found herself at a lack of challenge or adventure. She died at the age of twenty-six on Pinos Isle, wise beyond her years, on the order of the Taino Assassin, Opía Apito.

Historic archives contain scattered references to individuals known as "Sages", but they are few and far between. Each citation seems to refer to a different person living in a vastly different time and location. The earliest example was found in a Sumerian clay tablet in cuneiform script, while the latest survives only as a footnote in one of Laureano Torres's own journals, dated January 1704. In all – according to exhaustive research – seven different "Sages" seem to have graced the world's stage in the past twelve hundred years. But the real number is likely higher. Perhaps, the strangest aspect connecting each of these various sightings is the fact that, in every case, visual descriptions of each Sage are remarkably similar. So similar, in fact, that one wouldn't be faulted for assuming they ware talking about a single, immortal man. However, in two of the seven citations, explicit mention is made of their death and burial. Is this therefore some bizarre form of reincarnation? Or some simpler explanation that is presently unknown? More research is required.

Born: 1690, England
Died: 1717, Nassau Born in England, the passionate, creative, yet incredibly gullible Vance Travers, found a life for himself amongst the Assassin's Brotherhood in the West Indies, where he ran a successful smuggling enterprise, with his older brother, Upton. Business took a turn for the worse after he met and fell in love with the Templar, Jing Lang, who persuaded him to divulge knowledge of the location of buried treasure with which he and Upton planned to fund their retirement. Paranoid, Travers developed delusions that his brother plotted to steal his treasure and Jing's heart. He broke from the Creed and, after a failed attempt at fratricide, was killed by Edward Kenway.

Born: 1679, England
Died: ???? Woodes Rogers was born into money, to a seafaring family with deep roots in both Poole and Bristol, England. His early life was a picture of industriousness and ambition, and by the age of 18 he was an apprentice Mariner. Upon his father's death at sea in 1706, Woodes inherited his family's prosperous shipping company, which he took to managing with great passion. Between 1704 and 1707 Rogers' fortunes and family grew, and by the time he was twenty-seven his marriage to Sarah Whetstone had produced one son and two daughters. By the end of 1707, however, his business had suffered great losses by raiding French forces, giving Rogers the idea to recoup these dreadful losses himself. Knocking about Bristol in search of a partner for this endeavor, he soon found himself in the company of William Dampier, an old friend and unlucky Captain who suggested setting out on a privateering expedition, one that would range far and wide about the New World. In 1708, Rogers made the necessary arrangements and set out as Captain of his own vessel, on a difficult voyage that would last over three years. Along this course Rogers met with many successes and failures. In 1709, off the western coast of South America, he found and rescued a marooned sailor by the name of Alexander Selkirk, a sailor who had spent nearly 4 years living in isolation and who would serve as the inspiration for the book "Robinson Crusoe" just a few years later. Soon after Selkirk's recovery, Rogers' fleet engaged an enemy vessel in open combat—a skirmish that earned him a pistol shot to the left side of his face and a mangled heel. Neither wound was enough to remove him from command however, and he continued serving as captain until his return to England in late 1711. To commemorate this return, he had an operation to remove the offending bullet from his upper palate. Now in poor health but high spirits, he set about writing his memoirs. Upon their publication a few years, they were an immediate success, and proved a great source of income. But this brief glory was offset by the sudden death of his son, a tragedy compounded some months later by his wife's decision to leave him. Also at this time, Rogers was sued by former shipmates for allegedly hoarding goods and money plundered from enemy vessels. Rogers assembled a defense, but lost the case. In 1713, itching to return to sea, he organized passage to Madagascar claiming to be a merchant in the slave trade, but with the intended purpose of reconnoitering the rumored pirate colonies established there. When he arrived in Madagascar after months of hard sailing, he found that the legends of the pirate town "Libertalia" had been exaggerated one-hundredfold. The pirates in Madagascar were sickly and few and desperate for help. After spending just a few months here, Rogers set sail for England, a failure in his own mind. And yet, never one to give up hope, Woodes Rogers reoriented his attentions to the West Indies, eventually lobbying King George for a commission to hunt pirates in the Caribbean. On this score, he succeeded. After a few diligent years of making his case, King George appointed Woodes Rogers as the Governor of the Bahamas. Now, at last, he would make his mark, and bring justice to a land where chaos had taken root...
