Duncan Walpole (1679 – 1715) was a member of the Assassin Order stationed in the Caribbean, during the early 18th century, who attempted to defect to the Templars.[1]

In June of 1715, Walpole's ship was attacked by pirates in the middle of a storm. The Pirates managed to de-mast his ship, but soon found that their own weapon magazine had been hit. Boarding the ship, Walpole assassinated the captain, but was thrown overboard by the magazine explosion.

Shipwrecked in Cape Bonavista, Cuba, Walpole attempted to enlist the aid of the only other survivor - the pirate Edward Kenway - in reaching Havana. Edward attempted to haggle the price of passage, but Duncan threatened him with a flintlock pistol, but couldn't fire it due to wet gunpowder. Walpole subsequently fled into the jungle, and Edward gave chase before eventually killing him.

On Duncan's corpse, Edward found a letter from the Spanish Governor of Cuba, Laureano de Torres y Ayala, referencing the cargo Walpole was brining to him. Edward chose to assume Walpole's identity and collect the reward himself.[2]
