I wanted to ask you something. Which is... what's your name? This article title is conjecture. Although the article subject is canon, no official name for it has been given. |
- "Sometime during the Seven Years' War the Templars made their move and destroyed [the Colonial Brotherhood] during the Assassin witch hunt."

The 1763 Colonial Assassin purge was a full-scale assault on the Assassin Brotherhood in the Thirteen Colonies by the Colonial Rite of the Templar Order, led by Grand Master Haytham Kenway.
History
Turning the tide
Following Haytham's arrival in the New World in 1754, the newly formed Colonial Rite came into conflict with the already established Assassin Brotherhood in the region. While initially a proxy war between the Templars and mercenaries recruited by the Assassins, the conflict soon intensified.
Shay Cormac, a former Assassin, helped the Templars track down and kill several of his former comrades, including Kesegowaase, Adéwalé, Hope Jensen, Louis-Joseph Gaultier, Chevalier de la Vérendrye, and Liam O'Brien.
Final assault
After nine years, the Templars launched their assault and attacked the Davenport Homestead, killing all the Assassins present, with the exception of their aging and crippled Mentor, Achilles Davenport.
Convinced that the lone Assassin no longer posed a threat, the Templars spared Achilles' life, on the condition that he give up his life as an Assassin. Achilles agreed, and spent the next six years in complete isolation in his manor until the arrival of Ratonhnhaké:ton.
