Biography
Sometime during the 19th century, Hattie Cadwallader worked for the Templar Grand Master Crawford Starrick, procuring and collecting artworks for the man. She financed Starrick's enterprises through selling these artworks.
In 1868, she became a target of the Assassin Jacob Frye who formed a partnership with a fellow Templar Maxwell Roth. During this time, Cadwallader had stolen a statue from the National Gallery, hiding it in her hideout in the sewers. Growing tired of Starrick's conditions, Cadwallader mistook Jacob as one of Starrick's men. The Assassin kidnapped her and delivered the woman to Roth.
