Callum "Cal" Lynch (born 1979)[1] is a modern day descendant of the 15th century Spanish Assassin Aguilar de Nerha.[3] He is also the son of Joseph and Mary Lynch.
Biography
As a child, Lynch was forced to watch his mother's murder. He has been on the run ever since, living on the fringes of society. This shrouded his heritage from him.[4]
He grew up to be a criminal himself and was scheduled to be executed after he killed a pimp. However, the Templars learned of his Assassin ancestry and faked his death so that they could access de Nerha's memories during the Spanish Inquisition and his interaction with an Apple of Eden.[5]
Callum awoke the following day at an Abstergo facility in Madrid for use in Animus experiments.[6] Prolonged exposure caused the Bleeding Effect to manifest in Lynch, making him see images of Aguilar in the present day.[7]
Trivia
- "Callum" is a masculine Gaelic name meaning "dove" in Scottish and Irish Gaelic, continuing the trend of Assassin's Creed protagonists having avian-themed names.
- In the scene with the bulletin board showing Callum's family tree, the photograph of a young Callum has his name written as "Cal", with the A written as the Assassin insignia.
