[[WMG: The Player Character will turn on Abstergo]]
If they are merely hired by Abstergo they will relive both Edward Kenway's memories and some of Desmond's that has been hacked back in by Erudito. Find out that Abstergo are the Templars and turn against them as a result. If they were full members of Abstergo they will use stealthy and risking tactics to help out the remaining Assassin's out in the world. Either way using the animus will bite Abstergo in the ass again.

[[WMG: Bartholomew "Black Bart" Roberts will be a Templar pirate.]]
The most successful pirate of his time, Black Bart has plenty of traits that would make him a candidate for the Templar Order during the GoldenAgeOfPiracy. He was much more bloodthirsty than his peers, and was a FauxAffablyEvil gentleman who dressed in fine clothes and jewelry. Plus, we know that one of his prized possessions was a bejeweled crucifix, so the iconography is there. And think about the contrast between rakish, unkempt pirate turned Assassin Edward and [[ShadowArchetype groomed, fashionable pirate Templar Bartholomew.]]

Because seriously, ACIII explicitly said that Connor would have further adventures. The developers might even do the same thing as in ''Revelations''--have the playable ancestor be Connor, but have Connor use AppliedPhlebotinium to replay the memories of ''his'' ancestor, so that the player can switch between the two storylines. Since this is a new numbered title, the new Assassin would probably be more prominent though.

** The ACIII "Tyranny of George Washington" DLC seems to have something similar going on, with Connor having stumbled into an alternate universe (or an illusion of such) somehow.

*** Also WordOfGod has stated that by this point, Abstergo has upgraded the Animus to the point where the user no longer has to be related to the person whose memories they're viewing, so the new guy may not be related to Edward at all.

** There is a way around this. Subject 16 was descended from Ezio but wasn't related to Desmond by anyone else because Ezio had more than one child with different women throughout his life. This is entirely possible with Edward see above WMG.

Haytham Kenway mentions in the opening level in the third game that his father brought him to the Royal Opera House when Haytham was very young, and that he remembers very little of it. There could be a mission in Black Flag that shows this, perhaps even an assassination mission. This would serve as an effective call back to [[VideoGame/AssassinsCreedIII Assassin's Creed III]].

*Due to the nature of the Animus, (you can't follow the older ancestor after they've conceived the next generation of your bloodline) that would only be possible if the source of Edward Kenway's genetic memories came from the descendants of Haytham's younger sibling(s), of which there are none.

Consider that Edward seems to be a bit more cold and loose moral(killing target than walk out with his lady) than all of the previous Assassin combine in trailer. So much that Blackbeard even scare of him. Not to mention that Haytham went to direct opposite ideology. It was possible that Edward will hit this trope at some point. Also, it might gave a good parallel with Haytham relation with Conner.

to:

\n* Extremely unlikely. We know the game takes place in the days of Blackbeard, meaning it takes place at least before 1718 (the year of his death). The Aquila didn't get built until 1749 and didn't end up in its decrepit state until 1768. Unless Mr. Haytham impressed Blackbeard ''really'' early in his life and lived ''extremely'' long, it's highly unlikely that he was involved in devastating the Aquila like that. Same goes for the ship itself; I highly doubt whatever ship he uses would last 50+ years without getting replaced, decommissioned, or reconstructed so many times that the remaining original materials don't really constitute "the ship" anymore.

[[WMG:Edward's home base will be...]]
* Your ship. Let's face it, it basically is the pirate's overall home. Just step away from the wheel and manage things from the captain's cabin.
* A small [[VideoGame/AssassinsCreedII Monteriggioni]]-style pirate port that you serve as "governor" of.

[[WMG:Edward's crew will be LockedOutOfTheLoop]]
As Blackbeard asserts in the trailer, it is unwise to meddle in his personal affairs. There are probably only a handful of high-ranking confidants that know the truth of the Assassin/Templar conflict, while the remainder of the crew are your average buccaneer who either don't give a rat's arse, decide to not to get involved, or are simply ignorant of the goings-on behind the closed door of the captain's cabin.

[[WMG:Assassin recruits will '''not''' be members of your crew]]
Instead, they will be other captains in your fleet. Rather than having special footsoldiers to summon in combat, you summon whole ships to assist you in naval combat.
