Benjamin Hornigold (1680s – 1719) was an English pirate from 1715 to 1718, and a member of the Templar Order. He was most famous for mentoring Blackbeard and for being one of the founders of the pirate republic at Nassau.
He later became a pirate hunter working for Woodes Rogers, after the British offered him a letter of pardon in exchange for the lives of his former comrades.
Hornigold was ultimately killed by Edward Kenway, who considered Hornigold a traitor for siding with the Templars and turning his back on their pirate principles.
Final words
- Hornigold: You could have been a man who stood for something. But you've a killer's heart now. With nothing but mettle to show for all your blunders.
- Edward: A damn sight better than you have, Ben. The heart of a traitor, who thinks himself better than his mates!
- Hornigold: Aye, and proven true! What have you done since Nassau fell? Nothing but murder and mayhem!
- Edward: You threw in with the very kind we once hated!
- Hornigold: No! These Templars are different. I wish you could see that. But if you continue on your present course, you'll find you're the only one walking it! With the gallows at its end.
- Edward: It may be. But now the world has one less snake in it. And that's enough for me.
