Tokugawa Ieyasu (徳川 家康; 1543 – 1616), born Matsudaira Takechiyo (松平 元康), was the founder and first shōgun of the Tokugawa shogunate of Japan, which ruled from 1600 until 1868.
Ieyasu was one of many warlords of the Sengoku period, and opposed Templar influence spreading through the country; as such, he tasked his former squire Chaya Shirōjirō Kiyonobu with reporting any Templar activity in the land, and was the lord of the Assassin Hattori Hanzō. At the Battle of Sekigahara on 21 October 1600, Ieyasu defeated Ishida Mitsunari and united the land under the Tokugawa.
Behind the scenes
Tokugawa Ieyasu was introduced to the Assassin's Creed franchise in the mobile game Assassin's Creed: Memories. While not clearly identified as an Assassin, the game depicts Tokugawa Ieyasu giving orders and missions to Assassins like Yamauchi Taka or Hattori Hanzō, as well wearing a helmet emblazoned with the Assassin insignia, which might imply that Ieyasu was an Assassin himself.
