Edith Kenway

Edith Kenway was born on 10 March 1693 in Swansea, Wales, the second child of Bernard and Linette Kenway. His older sister had died during infancy, and so Edward never got the chance to meet her or learn much about her, as his parents tried to avoid the subject. When Edward was ten years old, his family relocated to a farm in Bristol, in Southwest England. However, the pastoral life did not agree with Edward and he became a well-known troublemaker in his adolescence. At the age of seventeen, Edith met Carl Scott, son of a tea magnate, who intervened on his behalf during an altercation outside the Auld Shillelagh tavern, in which Edward was defending Rose, one of the Scott family's housemaids, from being raped by Tom Cobleigh. Edith immediately fell in love with Carl and asked her to meet again sometime, but he refused, as his father would not allow such a breach of social etiquette after having already promised her to Mattea Hague, the daughter of a prominent East India Company executive. Despite their differences in social status, Edith still pursued his love for Carl. Through Rose, Edith learned that Carl often visited Bristol's port on a weekly basis. Hoping to attract his attention, Edith recruited a young street urchin named Albert to present Carl with a bouquet of flowers on her behalf. As the boy set off, Edward realized too late that Albert was a thief who intended to steal Carl's Satchel. As Edith moved forward to stop Albert, the thief successfully snatched Carl's money, but in the process was noticed by his nearby suitor, Mattea, and her hulking bodyguard, Wilson, who caught the criminal and proceeded to beat him. Finally reaching the scene, Edward subdued Wilson before forcing Albert to apologize. Drawn to his fearless conduct, Carl met Edith that night outside his house. Setting out for a midnight stroll, Carl explained to Edith how the thought of becoming Hague's husband, and what society expected her to do after the marriage, sickened him. At the same time, he knew that starting a relationship with Edward would incur the wrath of her father upon them both. Despite the looming threat of Emmett's imminent anger, the couple maintained a secret relationship for the next several months. They finally married in 1712. Carl's father, Emmett, disapproved of the marriage and disowned his daughter without providing a dowry. Deprived of the Scotts' wealth, Carl and Edith settled in the farm of Edith's parents, who quickly became fond of Edith's young husband, who tried her best to acclimate to her new life. However, dissatisfied with her life as a farmer and her inability to offer a privileged life to his wife, Edith failed to meet her marital obligations and assiduously frequented the taverns of the area. During a night of drinking, in late 1712, Scott approached an inebriated Edith in a tavern and offered her a deal, sending Carl back to him by leaving her in exchange for a large sum of money. Scott tried to convince him to accept his offer, but Edith fainted before giving an answer and her father-in-law took her to the Kenway farmstead, where he took the opportunity to show his distraught son what a bad wife Edith was. The next day, Scott received the visit from Edith, who refused his offer and proposed him another deal. In accordance with her own plans, Edith was going to try to make her fortune as a privateer in the West Indies and promised not to return to England until she became rich. To Scott, who wanted the marriage to end, Edith pointed the fact that the odds were great that she died at sea, making Caroline a widow able to marry again, and that Scott could also take advantage of his absence by trying to turn Caroline against her husband. Scott agreed to Edith's offer, and the latter announced his departure to Carl, who left the farm and returned to his parents' home, angry with Edith's decision. However, on the night of Edith's set departure, Scott sent Wilson and some members of the Trade Organization, including Tom Cobleigh and his associate Julian, to set fire to the Kenways' farm while Bernard and Linette were sleeping inside, in order to prevent Caroline from ever coming back to them. With Edith's departure being delayed, she returned to the farm in time to warn her parents and tracked the arsonists, but was knocked out and put on her departing ship by a hooded Wilson, who assured him that no more harm would come to his parents if he respected her pact with Scott. Despite Edith having managed to save hee parents, her father disowned him for all the trouble she had brought upon the family. Distraught, Edith sought revenge on the Cobleighs, killing Julian in the process. Before Edith could interrogate Tom, however, the latter was killed by Wilson. Edith then tried to engage Wilson, but was bested by the more experienced swordsman. Knocked unconscious by Wilson, Edith found herself aboard the Emperor, the ship she was intended to sail on. Later, after the war of Spanish succession, she would join the pirate crew of the Jacobite. In June 1715, the Jacobite attacked a passing vessel which proved to be too much for the crew to handle. With their captain dead, Edith took the helm and did her best to keep the ship afloat. While the pirates emerged victorious thanks to the storm, the ship's magazine caught fire and exploded, sinking the ship. Shipwrecked in Cape Bonavista, Edith met the only other survivor, an Assassin named Duncana Walpole, whose ship the pirates had attacked. Washing up next to Edith, Walpole was wounded by the shrapnel from the magazine's explosion. She offered to pay Edith for passage to Havana. Edith agreed upon condition of immediate payment, and advanced towards Walpole. Concerned, the Assassin drew her pistol, but it misfired due to wet gunpowder. Walpole fled, and Edith pursued her through the jungle, taking an interest in Walpole's Hidden Blade. Cornering Walpole, Edith quickly dispatched the wounded Assassin. Looting Walpole's body, Edith found a letter from Governor Laureano de Torres y Ayala of Havana, detailing Walpole's intended defection to the Templar Order. Oblivious to the implications of the letter, Edith donned Walpole's Assassin robes but was forced to discard the broken Hidden Blade, and collected a set of maps and a crystalline rectangular prism which were to be delivered to Torres for payment. While looking for a way to leave Cape Bonavista, Edith encountered a group of British soldiers harassing a merchant named Stede Bonnet, whom they believed to have been one of the pirates involved in the earlier battle. After dispatching the soldiers, Edith introduced himself to Bonnet using Walpole's name and accompanied him to Havana. Upon arrival, the two traveled to a local tavern to meet with Bonnet's contact, where several thugs recognized Edith as a pirate and provoked him into a fight. After dispatching the men, Edith was forced to flee as Spanish soldiers entered the tavern and began to chase him. While she was able to escape, the Spanish turned on Bonnet and seized his ship's holdings, including the package meant for Torres. Edward infiltrated the Spanish fort to recover the package before going to the intended meeting with Torres. Edith carefully maintained her charade as she conversed with prospective Templars Woodes Rogers, whose wife had met Duncana, and Julien du Casse. Du Casse equipped Edward with a new pair of Hidden Blades and requested that Edward show them some Assassin techniques in action. Picking up on hints from du Casse and Rogers, Edward was able to replicate the moves with relative accuracy. When Torres eventually arrived, Edith presented him with the maps and the prism he had collected from Walpole. Torres then inducted "Walpole", Rogers and du Casse into the Templar Order before explaining his plan to locate an Isu site known as the Observatory, which the Templars believed would allow them to monitor every person in the world and learn all their secrets. Uninterested, Edith took the opportunity to pickpocket the Templars as they discussed their plans. The four then traveled to the city docks to retrieve a man named Bartholomew Roberts, an alleged Sage who knew the Observatory's location. On the way back to the governor's house, they were ambushed by Assassins and Roberts fled, though Edith managed to chase him down and retrieve him. As Roberts was led away, Torres gave Walpole's intended pay of 1,000 reales to Edith for a job well done. Later, meeting with Bonnet, Edith complained about the pay she had received, believing it was insufficient. She then resolved to discover the Observatory's location and sell it to the highest bidder, and realized he would need the Sage's assistance. She infiltrated the prison where Roberts was being held, only to find the Sage gone and the Templars, having discovered her ruse, waiting for her. For robbing them of Walpole's valuable expertise, Torres had Edith imprisoned on a Spanish Treasure Fleet ship heading for Seville to deliver her to the British Templars in London. Edward managed to escape confinement with the help of a similarly-imprisoned {{user}}, then they freed and recruited a number of other prisoners before stealing one of the fleet's ships.
