Hillary Flint was the third son of an aristocratic family in the 18th century. Immersed in the study of math and science, Hillary developed a particular liking for explosives. He was sent off to a military school as a teenager by his parents, in the hopes that this interest might be molded into a more socially acceptable form.

In 2013, his genetic memories were used as an Animi Avatar by the entertainment branch of the Templar company Abstergo Industries, to influence the general public via the Animus games console, under the title of the Navigator.

Trivia

  • Hillary is derived via Latin hilaris from Greek ‘Ιλαρος (hilaros), meaning "cheerful". The surname Flint referred to those who lived near a significant outcrop of flint (a material that could be used to ignite fire or gunpowder). It could also be used a nickname for a hard-hearted or physically tough individual.
