14/10/2015 - ''[[Charlotte de la Cruz]] is over-educated and underemployed, wasting her time in a dead-end job in [[San Diego]], and spending her free time chasing down conspiracy theories on the dark side of the internet.''
1852: The [[California Gold Rush]]. A female [[American Assassin (1852)|Assassin]] is pursuing [[John Sutter]] on [[Horses|horseback]] in the [[Great Basin Desert]]. Using her [[rope launcher]], she mounts his [[Wagon|carriage]] and dispatches his drivers. She informs him the [[Maidu]] want the gold he stole returned, and fires her [[Firearms|rifle]] at an incoming rider.
''When a real-life conspiracy crashes into her life, she's pulled into the orbit of the [[Assassins]], a mysterious organisation of principled killers with roots stretching back thousands of years - and users of the stolen [[Animus]] technology, which allows them to experience the memories of their ancestors as if they were there!''
2015: [[San Diego]]. [[Charlotte de la Cruz]] is playing this [[Genetic memory|memory]] on her [[Helix]], while chatting to another player. He invites her to meet, but she is creeped out that he knows that she lives in San Diego. She heads to a job application for the charity [[World Share]], which ends with her storming off when she realizes her interviewer will probably give the position to her daughter.
''Charlotte has a secret in her blood... the genetic memory of an ancestor who was in [[Salem]] at the time of the infamous witch trials: [[Tom Stoddard]], an Assassin who witnessed a dark act with repercussions for the present day!''
Back behind her desk at [[Malta Banking Corporation]], Charlotte transfers ten thousand dollars to [[Morehead|Ms. Morehead]] so she can pay for her daughter's healthcare. Returning home, she is greeted inside by [[Xavier Chen]] and [[Galina Voronina]], who introduce themselves as from the "[[Assassins|Brotherhood]]". Having realized she will be fired, Charlotte cheers, explaining she knows of them having trawled conspiracy websites.
''As Charlotte is trained in the Assassins' art, and as she begins to investigate the life of her ancestor... the forces of the [[Templars|Templar Order]] move against her. Will Charlotte learn the skills she needs to survive, and the truth she needs to prove her worth - before the Templars silence her forever?!''<ref>[http://www.previewsworld.com/Home/1/1/71/920?stockItemID=STK684206 PREVIEWSworld.com: ''Assassin's Creed #1'']</ref>
Just as she declares she will join them, a group of [[Templars]] knock at her door. Thinking they're here about the money transfer, she opens her door, enabling them to barge through. A thug grabs Charlotte, but Galina [[Throwing knives|tosses]] a knife through his head, and jumps off her balcony onto the next building while urging her to come. After hesitating, Charlotte jumps...
...and wakes up greeted by a seagull. Xavier and Galina greet her, having taken her to their cell's hideout in the [[Salton Sea]]. They introduce her to their technician [[Kody]], who was the one who found her online, and the [[Animus]]. They explain an Assassin named [[Joseph (Assassin)|Joseph]] who they believed was dead reemerged at the Templars' headquarters, promising to reveal the location of an [[Pieces of Eden|object]] they want. Joseph messaged them, explaining it's a ruse to draw out a top Templar in San Diego. They need Charlotte to relive her ancestor's memories to verify what Joseph told the Templars: that the object was hidden [[Salem]] during the [[Salem witch trials|witch trials]].
1692: Salem Village. Charlotte is reliving the memories of [[Tom Stoddard]], who arrives to witness the hanging of [[Bridget Bishop]]. Stoddard walks away, and Charlotte's attempt to intervene causes her to [[Synchronization|desynchronize]]. As she pukes onto the floor, Xavier and Galina argue, as the latter has decided Joseph is a traitor. Charlotte declares she's going back in.
