'''Wyatt''' (died 28 May 1718) was a captain serving in the [[United Kingdom|British]] colony of [[Charleston|Charles-Towne]] until his death in 1718.


During his tenure as the governor of Charleston, he was asked by the [[Piracy|pirate]] [[Edward Thatch]] for medicines for syphilis and scurvy, diseases which severely affected the inhabitants of [[Nassau]]. Wyatt refused to give medicines to the pirate, which prompted Thatch to capture few residents of the colony and blockade the colony for a week. Wyatt, still refused to give medicines to the pirates, which made the pirate [[Edward Kenway]] infiltrate Charleston in his ship, the ''[[Jackdaw]]'', following two soldiers who were about to meet Wyatt. When tailing Wyatt, the [[guards]] spotted the ''Jackdaw'' near the town, raising an alarm and revealing Edward's presence. A frightened Wyatt began to run to his mansion, but he was chased and killed by Kenway in the process. Kenway then snatched a key from Wyatt, and left him to die. The pirates were then able to steal medicines and had the ingredients to make more. <ref>''[[Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag]]''</ref>

Biography[edit | edit source]

During his time in Charles-Towne, Wyatt was tasked by the governor to defend the town when the pirate Edward Thatch arrived and demanded medicines for syphilis and scurvy, diseases which severely affected the inhabitants of Nassau. Wyatt refused to accommodate Thatch's request, prompting the pirate to capture several residents of the colony and blockade it for a week.[1]

Still, Wyatt refused to give medicines to Thatch, causing his associate, Edward Kenway, to infiltrate Charles-Towne aboard his ship, the Jackdaw, following three soldiers who were due to meet Wyatt. While Kenway tailed the captain, the guards spotted the Jackdaw near to the town, raising an alarm and revealing Edward's presence. In response, a frightened Wyatt began to run to the governor's mansion, though he was chased down and killed by Kenway, allowing the pirate to retrieve a supply key from his body and take the medicines.[1]
