The murder of the Assassin undercover as Annie Chapman

A British Assassin initiate (c. 1841 – 8 September 1888) was active during the Whitechapel murders and became the second victim of the Assassin turncoat and serial killer Jack the Ripper.

Biography[edit | edit source]

Sometime after the death of the British Templars' Grand Master Crawford Starrick,[1] the Assassin apprentice was recruited during her childhood by the Master Assassin Jacob Frye in order to rebuild the British Assassins. Along with other initiates, she was brought to India by Jacob to learn the fear tactics of the Indian Assassins.[2]

Following their return to London, a fellow initiate named Jack usurped control of Jacob's gang, the Rooks, and started operations to eliminate the Assassins.[3] In an effort to stop his former student, Jacob sent his initiates to work undercover as prostitutes.[4]

After Jacob sent the real Annie Chapman away from Whitechapel, he ordered the apprentice to assume her identity. The initiate was then targeted by Jack, resulting in her demise. Jacob's twin, Evie Frye, later discovered her guise during her investigation, finding an Assassin ring at the crime scene.[5] The initiate was buried under Chapman's name on 14 September 1888.[6]
