Biography[edit | edit source]
Born during the Renaissance, Rodrigo de Mendoza was merchant-turned-mercenary captain. Stealing from foreign ships and unloading their cargo under the guise of good business, Rodrigo and his crew became rich and notorious.[1]
Unfortunately, Rodrigo's decadence and wealth caught the attention of the Spanish Inquisition, who demanded massive tithings from him. With Rodrigo unwilling to share his riches, Grand Inquisitor Tomás de Torquemada used his power as a prominent cleric and as the Spanish Templars' secret leader to brand Rodrigo and his crew as heretics and shut down his operation.[1]
After sacrificing his entire secret fortune as penance to the Inquisition to avoid a harsher sentence, Rodrigo and his crew joined forces with the Brotherhood, hoping to get their revenge.[1]
