In 1729, he was taken into slavery and shipped to Saint-Domingue (now Haiti), where he was taken under the wing of revolutionary disruptor François Mackandal. He joined the Assassin Brotherhood in 1738.

Toussaint Roussillon
A swamp-dwelling bon-vivant, Roussillon was so lazy he hired women to fight his battles for him. An alleged family man with a love of drink and fast women--which may be more legend than reality--, Roussillon was rather loud for a smuggler. Evidence suggests that he would have gone out of business, had it not been for his partner, Élise Lafleur.
Élise Lafleur
Combative and proud, Élise Lafleur was a straight-shooter and true friend to anyone who dared to stick around. Not easily intimidated, she did not suffer fools or liars. Her work with the people of San Danje betrayed a kind heart, while her success with Roussillon’s business revealed a keen mind.
Baptiste
Baptiste was born to slavery in Saint-Domingue, in the 1720s. (Official records unavailable). A childhood playmate of new arrivals Jeanne and Agaté, he fell under the spell of revolutionary leader François Mackandal and joined “his” Brotherhood in the early 1730s.
Later that decade, he fled the plantation with Agaté and Mackandal, in response to some threat, real or imagined.
After losing his mentor, in 1758, and then his friend Agaté, he left the Brotherhood in pursuit of more worthwhile ambitions.

Later that decade, he fled the plantation with Agaté and Mackandal, in response to A VERY REAL threat FROM THE TEMPLAR ORDER.
After losing his mentor, WHO WAS SENTENCED TO DEATH BY FIRE in 1758 FOR LEADING AN UPRISING AGAINST WHITE SLAVE OWNERS IN SAINT-DOMINGUE, and then his friend Agaté, WHO LEFT IN SEARCH OF JEANNE, he left the Brotherhood, DISILLUSIONED, and JOINED THE TEMPLAR ORDER, CONVINCED THAT THEIR METHODS WERE MORE ALIGNED WITH HIS ambitions.
BAPTISTE ASSUMED THE IDENTITY OF HIS MENTOR, GOING SO FAR AS TO AMPUTATE HIS OWN ARM TO COMPLETE THE ILLUSION. DISGUISED AS MACkandAL, HE RECRUITED A STRONG FOLLOWING OF DISGRUNTLED ACOLYTES, TRAINED THEM IN THE STYLE OF MAROON WARRIORS, and FOLLOWED AGATÉ TO NEW ORLEANS, WHERE HE SOUGHT TO EXPOSE and ERADICATE THE BROTHERHOOD, and TRANSFER LOCAL POWER TO THE handS OF THE TEMPLARS, FIRST BY CONTROLLING TRADE ON THE RIVER, UNDER THE MASK OF SPANISH INFLUENCE, and THEN BY POISONING THE RULING CLASS OF NEW ORLEANS.
HIS PLANS WERE INTERRUPTED BY AVELINE DE GRANDPRÉ, BY WHOSE Hand HE DIED. SOME OF HIS FOLLOWERS REMAINED IN THE SWAMP, A VIOLENT and UNPREDICTABLE ELEMENT.
