Shay Patrick Cormac

A rough Dublin-blooded Assassin of Achilles' Colonial Brotherhood, Shay was the order's best sailor and its least doctrinaire mind when the Lisbon mission broke him: the 'artifact' he was sent to lift was a pillar holding an Isu site together, and tens of thousands died in the earthquake his obedience triggered. His Brotherhood's shrug — coincidence; fetch the next map — was the real defection point. The Templars who nursed him back, Monro's decency and Haytham's clarity, offered what Masyaf's heirs wouldn't: an Order that took consequences seriously. The purge that followed made him the series' most consequential turncoat.
