Newport is a seaside city in Rhode Island.
History
During the American Revolutionary War, the Colonial Assassin Ratonhnhaké:ton sent his recruits to Newport to help with Rhode Island's war effort many times. First, to give support for the 1st Rhode Island Regiment to protect Newport and Aquidneck Island after the War Council left the Colony to its own defenses,[1] then to escort a secret shipment of black powder from the pier to their magazine,[2] and finally to discern what made the people of Rhode Island so unified in their desire to separate from England.[3]
In 1775, Ratohnhaké:ton travelled to Newport personally to assist spymaster Jeremiah Scudder. After steaking some documents, Ratohnhaké:ton attempted to meet with Scudder's top informant, only to witness his capture by British Regulars. After freeing the informant, Ratohnhaké:ton returned to Scudder, who recognised that this meant his spy ring had been uncovered, and gave him one final task of infiltrating Newport's British fort and destroy whatever evidence he could find.
In 1784, Louisiana Assassin Aveline de Grandpré travelled to Newport to recruit Patience Gibbs into the Assassin Order, though the Assassin saw her capture by the Templar doctor Edmund Judge.[4] Aveline rescued her from prison at Fort Washington, though Patience refused to ally and attempted to flee, leading to her recapture. Edmund forced her to give up her necklace. Aveline saved Patience once again, who agreed to work together to retrieve the charm from the Templar.[5]
Confronting him in the Newport Tower, they eliminated him and retrieved the charm. Patience revealed a missing piece she had been hiding and, after demonstrating the charm's functions, she accepted the offer to join the Assassin Brotherhood and they left for the Davenport Homestead.[6]
