History WMG / AssassinsCreedIVBlackFlag

*** Since Edward was Welsh and his family isn't directly related to Altaïr or Ezio, perhaps various members of the Kenway line are actually [[KingArthur the Once and Future King]]?

[[WMG: Olivier's board meeting in Chicago will be referenced, or even a mission, in WatchDogs.]]

[[WMG: The Abstergo Shareholders meeting and Olivier's disappearance are part of the story in WatchDogs]]

[[WMG: Edward's tattoos work like [[FarCry3 Jason Brody's tattoos]]]]

He did consider wanting to go into the Animus during [[AssassinsCreedIII AC3]]. Perhaps he finds out that since Edward is his ancestor, he's also a distant relative of Desmond and William as well. His time in the Animus also gives him eagle sense as well as a lifetime experience of parkour.

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.]]

* [[ManOfWealthAndTaste Chaloner]] [[HeroKiller Ogle]]: British navyman and pirate hunter who fought and killed Bartholomew Roberts more or less along the game's period. Roberts' death is seen as the nail of the coffin of the GoldenAgeOfPiracy, so it'd make sense to portray him.

[[WMG: There's an even BiggerBad than [[spoiler:Juno]]]]

* The best reference is that toward the end of the game, Abstergo Entertainment plans to use all the data mined about Edward Kenway to create a movie called "Devils of the Caribbean."

*** Also, by playing previous titles, the player can unlock Connor's robes (as well as Altair's and Ezio's) for Edward to wear.

[[WMG:Edward will be reminiscent of Altair.]]
That is, ''early'' Altair before he was demoted for his recklessness. Specifically in terms of a libertarian, carefree interpretation of the creed "nothing is true, everything is permitted."

If there's some way he's still alive after the end of the Revolution, he'd be in his 90s! Though then again, it's likely since assassins like Altair and Ezio lived to a ripe old age in times where the mortality rate was at 30-40.

He/she will have dug a little too deep either into Edward's life or another ancestor, making Abstergo send a hit squad for him/her. prompting Shaun and Rebecca and/or the Altair II crew to pull him/her out of Montreal to continue digging into the ancestor's memories. He/she is still confused about the whole thing even after what he/she's seen as Edward, but may come to slowly accept them, especially once someone from Abstergo crosses the Moral Event Horizon.

The other passenger in the human genome is Adam. Like the Sages, his reincarnations share a spitting likeness with each other, and also a natural affinity to Eagle Vision, seemingly superhuman agility and ability to shrug off more physical damage than a regular human being. At the moment, there are four known reincarnations of Adam throughout history. Altair, Ezio, Connor and Desmond. Now, unlike [[spoiler: Aita]], Adam is all about free will and never fully takes over his vessel, but rather remains a silent passenger. But his presence does guide their lives so that all his reincarnations end up becoming Assassins sooner or later.

First, a word about how Sages apparently come to be. When enough [[spoiler: Aita]]'s genetic material traveling through humanity's collective DNA converge in a single person, he is reborn as a Sage. However, the way human genes are spread, there have also been several near-[[spoiler: Aita]]s, i.e. people who possess most of his DNA but not all of it. Thom Kavanagh was one such person, which explains why he had Sage-like visions but was able to hang onto his original personality throughout his life, unlike Roberts or [[spoiler: John from IT]].

[[WMG: R-L closely resembles Juno]

He did consider wanting to go into the Animus during [=AC3=]. Perhaps he finds out that since Edward is his ancestor, he's also a distant relative of Desmond and William as well. His time in the Animus also gives him eagle sense as well as a lifetime experience of parkour.
* Jossed. [[spoiler: He's working the cafe in the lobby of the office.]]

The Modern Day segments make hefty references to the city of Chicago, the "cToS" security system, and Blume Security. And Oliver's disappearance seems like the perfect fodder for an easter egg or crossover event between the two series.

The DLC takes place in 1730 (and possibly onwards), and Rogers died in 1732. Edward also vowed to track him down, but had settled into a family life at that time, leaving it up to Adewale, who knows of Rogers' Templar activities, to do the job.

[[spoiler: Clay somehow found out about Juno/Aita's intention to find a host body that Juno could use to take over the world (and let's face it, if Juno wants to take over the world she'd need a host body that can both use, and be unaffected by, the Pieces of Eden).]]
