Connor regularly explored the Frontier, hunting animals that had become infamous, such as a cougar that threatened children from his village in the neighboring valley. He befriended the explorer Daniel Boone, who told him of mysterious and supernatural creatures and events he had witnessed, which Connor would often investigate and discover a logical explanation for. He also joined the Boston Brawlers club, eventually winning a tournament, and was also invited to join a Thief's Club after they noticed his pickpocketing skills. Connor also explored the underground tunnels used by the Freemasons in the cities he visited, learning some of their secrets.
Faulkner began his career in the Royal Navy, but as he was unable to purchase commissions, he left to work for the United Company of Merchants. Faulkner proved to be great mariner, running a disciplined crew and avoiding trouble. He also had an uncanny knack of predicting the weather. During his time as a merchant, he had a brief relationship with Amanda Bailey.
In 1753, Faulkner was recruited by the Colonial Assassins to be first mate of their ship the Aquila. He served aboard for fifteen years, though he deferred the position of captain. During the 1760s, the Templars - led by Haytham Kenway - launched an all out extermination of the Assassins, culminating in the Aquila's destruction in 1768. Faulkner had the wreck towed to the Davenport Homestead's harbor, and fell into alcoholism.
Two years later, the former Mentor Achilles Davenport introduced Faulkner to his recruit Connor. Connor had recruited the lumberers Terry and Godfrey, who gathered the timber necessary to repair the ship. Six months later, after the Aquila had been repaired, Faulkner gathered a crew and took Connor aboard to teach him how to captain a ship.
They sailed to Martha's Vineyard to buy cannons and recruit gunnery officers. Faulkner reunited with Amanda and recruited David and Richard Clutterbuck. However, Connor noticed the Templars Nicholas Biddle and Benjamin Church sitting nearby, and almost provoked them into a fight. Faulkner and Bailey defused the situation by leaving. Faulkner then taught Connor how to use the cannons and swivel guns. However, as they began sailing home, they were waylaid by English frigates, giving Connor a baptism of fire.
Three years later, the Aquila sailed to Martha's Vineyard.
