Biography[edit | edit source]

In 1711, Wallace met the sheep farmer Edward Kenway in the George and Dragon tavern in Bristol. Offering the young man a beer, he revealed his knowledge of Kenway's recent scuffle at Auld Shillelagh. Wallace then proposed the life of a privateer, sanctioned by the Crown to seize treasures from the New World. Kenway, intrigued, pondered the offer, and Wallace, recognizing his potential, hinted at a commission in return for considering the proposition.[1]

Away from the conversation, Kenway reflected on Wallace's offer when thinking about how the woman he fancied, Caroline Scott, was to marry Matthew Hague.[2] Kenway would eventually marry Caroline, chasing away her would-be suitor, but later found himself in economic hardship and decided to accept Wallace's offer. Caroline's father, Emmett Scott, did not think highly of his now son-in-law becoming a privateer.[3]

In late 1712, Wallace assigned Kenway to the crew of the Emperor, a merchant vessel repurposed into a privateer ship. Onboard the Emperor, Kenway revealed that it was Wallace who had recruited him, much to the snickering of the crew.[4]

Personality and traits[edit | edit source]

Dylan Wallace was a charismatic and persuasive individual. He was noted by Kenway as being a well-dressed gentleman and of more pleasant company than Matthew Hague's minder, Wilson.[1] However, the crew of the Emperor did not hold Wallace in high esteem, laughing between themselves when he was revealed as Kenway's recruiter.[4]
