Biography
Known as the best swordswoman of the Brotherhood, she was also married and had a son. Kulpreet worked with Ajay,[1] an Assassin who had a crush on her and with whom she worked as custodian of the Darkness, the subterranean headquarters of the Assassins in Amritsar.[2]
In 1860, she was chosen as the executioner of Jayadeep Mir, who had failed to kill Tjinder Dani due to a loss of nerve in what was perceived as a display of dangerous incompetence.[2] However, the sentence was secretly commuted into banishment, and Jayadeep left for England to work as an undercover agent for his former tutor, the British Assassin Ethan Frye.[3]
In 1862, the British Templar Cavanagh began to suspect that Bharat Singh, a young Indian man in his employ, was, in fact, Jayadeep, whom he heard of during his time in India.[4] Cavanagh, therefore, tasked the Indian Templars to capture Ajay and Kulpreet to learn the truth. Overwhelmed by their numbers, the two Assassins were knocked out and taken to a warehouse to be tortured for information on whether or not Jayadeep had been executed years earlier.[5]
Tied to a chair, Kulpreet still managed to subdue her would-be torturer and seize her Hidden Blade. However, outnumbered she realized that she would not be able to escape so decided to commit suicide. She activated her weapon's fail-safe and released the blade through the neck of the Templar she had bested and into her own eye, killing them both.[6]
