Biography
Early life
Noa was born in Korea to an American father and a Korean mother. When Noa was still young, his father mysteriously vanished. Returning home one night, Noa found his mother crying and asked her where his father had gone, to which she simply replied that he wouldn't be coming back. This enraged Noa, who vowed to never become anything like his father.[1]
In his youth, Noa was frequently teased or bullied by his schoolmates due to his mixed race, which increased his resentment towards his father, blaming him for being different from his peers and unable to fit in.[1]
Abduction by Abstergo
In 2023, after using the genetic genealogy site WhyYou developed by Abstergo Genetic Research Lab, Noa was lured on a vacation prize trip to Macau. There, he was kidnapped by Abstergo agents and brought to their facility in the city, where he was forced to relieve the memories of his ancestor Edward Kenway during his time in Southeast and Mainland Asia.[2]
During his first session in the Animus, he caused several synchronization errors due to being unaware that the events he was witnessing were someone else's memories. The first major one occured when Noa heard the story of Hendrik, which reminded him of his own father's abandonment, but the Animus managed to resync by bypassing factual information and the simulation continued.[3] During the second desynchronization error, which occured when Noa tried to warn the villagers Edward had been hiding with about cholera, the Animus reacted more violently and electrocuted Noa, causing his heart rate and adrenaline levels to spike. Doctor Shimazu Sei attempted to warn Noa, but due to his stubbornness, she and her team were eventually forced to end the session.[1]
Noa was taken to another room where Abstergo doctors managed to stabilize his condition. Awakening some time later, he recalled Edward's memories and assumed he had been playing a VR game until Sei entered the room and informed him of the truth. After telling Noa about the Animus and Edward, including the latter's role as a member of the Assassin Brotherhood, Sei revealed what she sought: information on a Piece of Eden Edward had found in Southeast Asia. While Noa was processing all this information, Sei told him that Abstergo had made sure no one would search for him and that it was in his best interest to be cooperative. Enraged at being told what to do, Noa pulled Sei by her labcoat collar but was quckly subdued by Abstergo security. As he was being dragged away, Noa decided to offer Sei a deal.[1]
