Aquila is the name of the ship commanded by Ratonhnhaké:ton, also known as Connor, in Assassin’s Creed III. Connor uses the vessel during naval missions in the American Revolution while pursuing threats connected to the Templar Order.
The Aquila is a brig that can be upgraded and used in open-water missions. Its name means “eagle” in Latin, matching the series’ recurring symbolism of birds, height, and freedom. Naval gameplay in Assassin’s Creed III helped establish ship combat as a major feature of later entries.
The question’s family relationship can be confusing. Connor is Edward Kenway’s grandson, while Edward commands the Jackdaw in Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag. The Morrigan belongs to Shay Cormac in Assassin’s Creed Rogue.
