Biography
Early life
Born during the late 17th century in the Oyo Empire in Western Africa, Irekanni grew up having a troubled childhood, being raised by overly-strict parents. In time, she entered a rebellious stage and frequently got into trouble. Upon growing older, her father forced her into an unwanted marriage with an abusive husband that eventually culminated in Irekanni killing him. Despite the fact that it was done in self-defense, Irekanni was jailed for her actions and sold into slavery overseas.[1]
Irekanni ended up in Saint-Domingue where she was forced to work on a sugar plantation under extreme conditions and brutal taskmasters. Within a year, Irekanni secretly organized an uprising alongside the other field workers, killing their overseers and the plantation owner. Irekanni then left to seek her freedom on the open sea.[1]
Joining the Assassins
After winding up in Nassau in the Bahamas, Irekanni met the pirate and West Indies Assassin Mary Read, who senses a kindred spirit in her. Mary introduced Irekanni to the Creed and convinced her to join the Brotherhood in their fight against the Templar Order. After the fall of Nassau, Irekanni continued operating in the Caribbean, disrupting slave trade and Templar control in the region.[1]
