The Gunpowder Plot

The Gunpowder Plot was a virtual representation of one of Edward Kenway's genetic memories, relived by a research analyst at Abstergo Entertainment in 2013 through the Animus Omega.

Description

Hoping to escape Nassau, Edward and Charles Vane devised a plan for which they would need gunpowder.

Dialogue

Edward walked up to Charles Vane, who was observing Benjamin Hornigold, Josiah Burgess, and John Cockram meeting with Woodes Rogers.

• Vane: Look at them turncoats. Makes me bloody ill to think how many times I put up with Hornigold and his self-righteous shite.

Rogers addressed the pirates.

• Rogers: Verily, you are a man of principle, Captain Hornigold. A man I believe I can trust with my best ideas.

Edward explaining his plan to Vane

Edward reassured Vane, and they discussed their plan to escape Nassau.

• Edward: Faith, and we'll survive this, Charles. With our pride intact.
• Vane: Well, that's confidence. You brewed a plan I might get a taste of?
• Edward: Nassau is over, that's plain to see. I say we skip out tonight, and regroup at my compound.
• Vane: Fair enough. What's your angle?
• Edward: The Brits have brought their supplies ashore, see? If we nick some gunpowder and pine pitch, we can build a fire ship and send it straight at the blockade, blasting it to smithereens.
• Vane: Aye. We'll use Rackham's ship. He ain't a capable captain.
• Edward: My conscience is clear.
• Vane: Right. While you get up the gunpowder, I'll secure the pine pitch.

Edward robbed four gunpowder storages.

Outcome

Edward stole the gunpowder needed for his and Charles Vane's plot.

Behind the scenes

The memory name is a reference to the gunpowder plot of 1605.
