Biography
Early life
Emmanuel had served in the military, and had the Assassin insignia burned into his dog tag. On his first mission as an Assassin, Emmanuel was instructed by William Miles to find a Templar presence in the War on Terror. What he found, however, was a bus full of children with bombs strapped to their chests who were going to be used to disrupt peace talks. In order to save the people at the peace talks, Emmanuel killed the kids. Doing so caused Emmanuel to swear to never take another human life again, although he continued to serve the Assassin Order, acquiring weapons and training his fellow Assassins in their use. He was angry with William for giving him the mission, and was eventually assigned to the Altair II and put under the command of Assassin leader Gavin Banks.
Osaka, Japan
On 1 October 2013, while sailing on the Sulu Sea, Barraza inspected the weapons the crew had bought from Philippine gun makers, in preparation for a possible fight with Abstergo agents in Osaka, Japan.
Emmanuel and his fellow Assassins arrived in Osaka on 4 December, and he accompanied Gavin and another Assassin to the headquarters of the Osaka Brotherhood. They discovered their fellow Assassins had been attacked, and Emmanuel used his expertise to determine where bodies fell and how they died. Gavin used his Eagle Vision to discover the yakuza, not Abstergo, were behind the attack. Emmanuel and his fellow Assassins were then ordered to locate any Assassin survivors or the identity of the attackers.
A supposedly extinct branch of the yakuza called the Onmoraki-Gumi came under suspicion as the perpetrators of the attack, and on 12 December, Emmanuel managed to trail a cash deposit to the Onmoraki's new headquarters.

On 17 December, Emmanuel went with Gavin to the headquarters of the Onmoraki-Gumi and watched as he attempted to demand an audience with the head the group. The guard, Kiyoshi Takakura, refused to allow them in and threatened to attack them if they did not leave. Gavin attempted to use psychological warfare to get inside Kiyoshi's head, but ended up being punched in the face and knocked to the ground. As Kiyoshi began kicking Gavin, Emmanuel did not intervene, reminding Gavin that he was a pacifist. However, he heard two other members of the Onmoraki-Gumi talking about how "Grandma" would not like this, as she had worked hard to hide the Brotherhood. Emmanuel realized the thugs were actually Assassins, and allowed his hand to be impaled by Kiyoshi's hidden blade when Kiyoshi was about to kill Gavin with it. Emmanuel then asked him what the first tenet of the Creed was, and after Kiyoshi answered, Emmanuel showed him his dog tag with the Assassin insignia burnt on it. Kiyoshi apologized to Emmanuel and Gavin, and later complimented Emmanuel on his ability to handle pain, claiming he was "almost Japanese".
On 23 December, Emmanuel went to Dr. Stephanie Chiu aboard the Altair II to have the bandages on his wound changed. He listened in silence as Gavin complained that while Emmanuel's wound was being fussed over, he had to treat his own injuries from the beating Kiyoshi gave him, and that he would have been fine if Emmanuel had just done his job and protected him.

On 31 December, Emmanuel and the rest of the Altair II crew traveled with Saeko and Kiyoshi to Tokyo to gather supplies. He sparred with Kiyoshi for several hours before being convinced to come with him and Chiu to a karaoke bar. Emmanuel was filmed singing by Chiu, and threatened to break his vow to never kill again if she ever showed it to anyone.
Norwegian bunker
On 9 May 2014, Emmanuel was interrogated by William, after the crew had been suspected of espionage by an Initiate spy.
