* {{Deconstruction}}: Of the [[WildCard Jack Sparrow archetype]]. Whereas Sparrow is a loveable rogue with the HiddenDepths of being much more reliable than he lets on, Rackham is an untrustworthy, hedonistic drunk whose incompetence led to him and his entire crew getting captured by the military.

!!!Modern Day Characters
[[folder:"John from IT"]]
!!John Standish, aka "John from IT"
-->'''Voiced By:''' Oliver Milburn (English)'''

->''"Hi, John from IT again, you got a second?"''

An IT guy working at Abstergo Entertainment. Has you run errands for him from time to time.
----
* AccentSlipUp: Usually speaks with a pretty regular American accent, right until [[spoiler: the end when he starts roaring with Roberts' Welsh baritone]]. This is an unusual example, considering [[spoiler: ''both are probably his native accents'', with the American being his current accent and the Welsh being from a previous life.]]
* TheCracker: Not surprising considering he works at IT. He teaches the player character how to do it, too.
* TheFaceless: He is mostly just a disembodied voice calling from the PDA. When he does appear on screen, his face is obscured.
* MissionControl: He is this during the modern day missions, asking you for favors and walking you through them.
** MissionControlIsOffItsMeds: The things he asks you to do become increasingly sketchier, and then [[spoiler: he starts blackmailing you by threatening to rat you out to the higher ups so you keep cooperating. It goes downhill from there.]]
* RummageSaleReject: He wears a mostly normal get-up with a blue hoodie, jeans, and sneakers. However, if you look closely on his first appearance you may notice he also has an unusually thick leather belt with an antique buckle for some reason. [[spoiler: When you finally meet him face to face he's also wearing a t-shirt with an ornate skull design and a large cameo necklace that clashes horribly with the otherwise modern getup.]]
