In Assassin's Creed III, which Mohawk protagonist fights during the American Revolution?

The story behind the answer

In Assassin's Creed III, the Mohawk protagonist who fights during the American Revolution is Ratonhnhaké:ton.

Ratonhnhaké:ton is the character's Kanien'kehá:ka birth name; he is more widely known by the name Connor. The game follows him from childhood through his training as an Assassin and his involvement in the Revolutionary War. His mother, Kaniehtí:io, belongs to the Kanien'kehá:ka people, while his father is the Templar Haytham Kenway.

The dual naming reflects the game's focus on identity, colonial conflict, and competing loyalties. Connor works with figures associated with the Patriot cause, including George Washington, but the story does not portray him as simply an American soldier. His main goal is to protect his community and oppose Templar plans.

Haytham Kenway is a separate playable character and Connor's father, which makes him the most likely source of confusion. Charles Lee is a historical Templar antagonist, while Achilles Davenport is Connor's mentor.
