Biography
Early life
Antó was born to the Ashanti tribe in the Akon region of West Africa in 1670. At a young age, he was sold into slavery and sent to Jamaica to work in a sugar plantation. It wasn't long, however, until he escaped with the help of a warrior Cudjoe and fled to Kingston.
Soon after, he founded a Maroon community and began to form a good reputation with local traders, and began coordinating plantation raids to free slaves and build an army. In 1698, he was inducted into the Assassin Order and rose through the ranks, eventually becoming leader of the Kingston bureau. Many of the slaves that he rescued became his recruits. Despite being the bureau leader, Antó's first priority was always to free slaves from captivity.
Working with Edward Kenway
In 1715, Antó was approached by the pirate Edward Kenway, who admitted to having sold out his bureau's location to the Templars, and wished to rectify his mistake by assisting him in exchange for a Templar key to a vault on Great Inagua. To facilitate cooperation, Antó and Edward freed a number of Maroons, before defending the bureau from the Templar attack. Subsequently, the pair assassinated the Templar Kenneth Abraham.
By 1721, Antó was still stationed in Kingston, when Edward returned from the Assassin Brotherhood at Tulum, sent to assassinate Woodes Rogers. As Rogers was hosting a party before his return to England, Antó provided Edward with the identity of an Italian diplomat attending the party. Edward assassinated the diplomat and assumed his identity to enter the party undetected. Before setting off, Edward requested Antó to send a letter to his wife, Caroline.
Trivia
