Yu Dayong (unknown – 1526), also known as The Slaver, was one of the Eight Tigers, a group of powerful Templar eunuchs that controlled the Chinese imperial court during the reign of the Ming dynasty Zhengde Emperor. He played a role in the purge of the Chinese Assassins after the ascendance of the Jiajing Emperor. He enforced the slave trade, selling opponents to the Portugese and making huge profits while humiliating and exiling the enemies of the Templars.

In 1526, he became a target of the Assassin Shao Jun, after her return to China from Europe.

Trivia

  • While he bears the name "Yu Dayong" in Assassin's Creed Chronicles: China, said name is actually an incorrect transliteration of the Chinese 谷大用. The correct name would be "Gu Dayong".
