Hendrick van der Heul
- "Hendrick van der Heul. Captain Kidd's quartermaster turned captain himself. The path you sought never existed, Hendrick. I hope your suffering was short."
- ―Connor upon finding Hendrick van der Heul's corpse.[src]
Hendrick van der Heul (14 May 1676 – c. 1762) was a privateer and quartermaster of William Kidd. He later became captain of the Octavius.
Biography
During his captaincy, Hendrick received a piece of Kidd's map containing clues to the location of his Shard of Eden. He also received a letter from Kidd, in which he confided that he was holed up in Boston, and that a particular group was intent on obtaining his Shard.
Hendrick died around 1762 when the Octavius became stranded in ice, while looking for the Northwest Passage. In 1776, the Assassin Connor found his corpse, and retrieved van der Heul's piece of Kidd's map.
Trivia
- His name is erroneously spelled as van der Huel in the Animus Database's entry for the Octavius.
