The Bolden family was an American family who was famous for being the last lineage of Black Cross, inquisitors tracking corruption in the Templar Order. The family was responsible for the protection of the Koh-i-Noor.
History
Journey in Libya
The eldest known member of the Bolden family was Solomon Bolden, an Afro-American member of the American Rite of the Templar Order at the dawn of the 19th century. He was also married but didn't have children with his wife. When the Black Cross Tavis Olier was presumed dead during his search of the Koh-i-Noor, a piece of Eden who was in possession of the Ottoman sultan Selim III, Solomon took his mantle as Black Cross and investigated in Libya to save Olier imprisoned in Tripoli.[1]
In 1805, posing as a slaver, Solomon met the Flemish spy Jan van der Graff, who also search the artifact. After surviving of a pirates attack sent by Selim, the two men decided to work together, Solomon will protect Graff during the travel while the Flemish spy will help the Black Cross to infiltrate the dungeon where was Olier. In Tripoli, they met in a tavern the contacts of Graff, Edmund and Ahkbar. Edmund revealed that a tunnel passed under the palace before been killed by soldiers in the street. Bolden and Graff entered in the tunnel, but several men waiting for them, of which Ahkbar, who was a sultan's agent. During the fight, Ahkbar stabbed Solomon in the back. In his last breath, the Black Cross tasked Graff to find Olier. Graff was captured and sent in the dungeon.[1]
In his cell, Graff met Olier, who trained him to become a Templar. In July 1808, they discovered that the Libyan Assassins tried to recover the Koh-i-Noor from Selim. The two Templars escaped from their cell but Olier sacrificed himself to give the opportunity to Graff to continue the mission. Becoming the new Black Cross, Graff entered in the sultan's apartment and discovered that Selim was poisoned by Ahkbar, who was also an Assassins but wanted to keep the diamond for himself. Graff fought the Assassin who created doubles of himself with the artifact. The Black Cross saw through them and killed Ahkbar. After discovering the treason of Ahkbar, the Assassins decided to spare Graff's life after he declared that he didn't want to continue to be a Templar and left with the box containing the artifact. In fact Graff was lying and had removing the Koh-i-Noor of the box before the arriving of the Assassins.[1]
Later, Graff went in America, to tell to Solomon's wife the fate of her husband. The two had a relation and a child who continue the Bolden lineage.[1]

In February 1927, Albert was sent to London to assassinate the corrupted Grand Master of the British Rite of the Templar Order Thaddeus Gift. Albert killed him and took his Templar ring. A month later, the Black Cross was sent to China and eliminate the Russian Templar turncoat Yuri Dolinsky.
