The blowpipe was a weapon that was used by Assassins such as Edward Kenway and French-African Aveline de Grandpré. First belonging to the Assassin François Mackandal, the blowpipe was given to Aveline by her Mentor, Agaté.

Used as a silent and deadly weapon, the blowpipe functioned in a similar way to poison darts. Aveline possessed two different types of ammunition for the blowpipe, the first would kill quickly, while the other would have caused a slower and more dramatic death.
