!!Captain William Kidd
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/william_kidd_ac_1683.jpg]]
A Scottish privateer, Captain William Kidd initially served the Crown by attacking ships in the Indian Ocean. He was later declared a pirate and a wanted man. He was eventually captured and hanged in London. Rumours of a treasure and its whereabouts continued for a hundred years until Connor Kenway recovered it in Oak Island during the American Revolution.
----
* ApocalypticLog: The letters he gives to his friends shows his increasing fear and paranoia as he tries to escape the Templars.
* BadassNormal: Despite not being an Assassin, William Kidd manages to slay nine Templar soldiers who attacked him under British colours.
* CoolSword: He wielded a sawtooth cutlass that Connor later acquires from Cerros.
* DeflectorShields: He found a First Civilization Shard of Eden which gave him protection from gunfire, he later hid this when the Templars came after him.
* FamedInStory: Despite not appearing, he's famous enough in the 18th Century for his legend to endure in the Colonial Era. There is a popular song about him, "Captain Kidd" which is sung by the crew in ''Black Flag'' and his treasure is already regarded as a myth in Connor's time. Mary Read names herself James Kidd as a homage.
* FamousAncestor: Mary Read not only calls herself James Kidd but initially claims that she's William Kidd's illegitimate son. It's not true, but William Kidd is such a legend that it gets her much street cred among the Nassau crew.
* PosthumousCharacter: He doesn't appear but gets several mentions in ''Black Flag'' while his letters frames the Assassin Tomb quest in ''III'', though William Kidd was not in fact an Assassin.
* ProperlyParanoid: He hid his "treasure" in a sinkhole in Oak Island, the famous Money Pit. Then he scattered the keys to the treasure map among his associates, ensuring that no one person can get all of it at once.
* TreasureMap: He created one, splitting it in four pieces and scattering it across North America and the Caribbean.
* TrueCompanions: He gives bits of his treasure map to Abel Owens, Joseph Palmer, Lucky Lem and Hendrick van der Heul.
* VillainSong: The sea shanty "Captain Kidd" written after his death:
--> "My name was Captain Kidd
--> And God's laws I did forbid
--> And so wickedly I did
--> as I sailed, as I sailed."
* WorthlessTreasureTwist: PlayedWith. Robert Faulkner is disappointed that Connor only found a strange ring at Oak Island, clearly expecting large quantities of gold. However, Connor soon realizes its true potential and why the Templars wanted it.

The 122nd Emperor of Japan. Meiji would lead the country into an era of prosperity and modernization with the help of the Templars.
----
* TheEmperor: It is in his title after all.
* HistoricalDomainCharacter: Meiji was the founder of the Empire of Japan who led the Imperial forces against the Tokugawa Shogunate and the Republic of Ezo during the Boshin War. He was also responsible for the Westernization of Japan from the construction of railroads to the introduction of a European-style military akin to Britain and Germany.
* PuppetKing: Ultimately, Meiji was little more than a pawn used by the Templars to spread their ideology across Japan by re-establishing their presence in the country after their gradual fall in the Sengoku period.
