Cain was one of the first two sons of Adam and Eve. He was the murderer of his brother, Abel, simply due to jealousy. In the Assassin's Creed universe, Cain killed Abel for a Piece of Eden that he held. He was also the founder of the Templar Order.

Cain in Assassin's Creed II

In Assassins Creed, Cain's story differs from the event stated in the Bible. Instead of Cain killing Abel because God was pleased with his brother instead of him, Cain killed Abel to steal the Piece of Eden in his possession.[1]

From there, Cain's mark (that he was given for killing Abel) became the symbol of the Templars, which they work under to collect more Pieces of Eden. Subject 16 also references quotes from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints' "Pearl of Great Price" scripture. The semi-hidden message "Templar texts adapted by Mr. Smith" written in Morse code in a glyph sequence (Mr. Smith being an allusion to Joseph Smith, the 19th-century preacher who founded the LDS Church), imply that the Mormon or LDS version of Cain and Abel is more accurate, or at the very least, an accurate reflection of the Templar's version of events. The relatively unique title of "Master Mahan " is mentioned as the title Cain gave himself, for being the master of the great secret. The term "Mahan" is used within the LDS Church.[1]
