Reginald Birch (1705 – 1757) was the Grand Master of the British Rite of the Templar Order, and a successful English businessman. He began his dealings at a young age, and by the time he had reached his mid-20s, Birch owned several merchant ships; mainly involved with the dealing of tea to the British American colonies. Later on in his life, Birch would progress to own several businesses around London.

Birch met Haytham Kenway, son of Birch's Assassin rival Edward Kenway, at a young age. He recruited Haytham into the Templars after the death of Edward Kenway, personally involving himself with the boy's training.[1]

In 1754, after Haytham had retrieved the key to the undisclosed Grand Temple, Birch secured passage to Boston for Haytham to find the First Civilization storehouse and establish a permanent Templar presence in British America.[2]

Once Haytham had discovered the truth of Birch's involvement in the kidnapping of his half-sister, Jenny Kenway, and the murder of his father, the Templar stormed Birch's chateau with Jim Logan and Jenny. Following this, Birch was killed by Jenny, via a sword that Haytham had embedded into Birch's bedroom door (killing the guard on the other side) prior to a struggle between Reginald and the woman.[1]
