In Assassin's Creed III, Connor Kenway's Native American heritage is linked to the Kanien'kehá:ka, also known as the Mohawk. Connor is born Ratonhnhaké:ton to Kaniehtí:io, a Kanien'kehá:ka woman, and British Assassin Haytham Kenway.
The game is set during the American Revolution and presents Connor's childhood in a Kanien'kehá:ka village before he becomes involved with the Assassin Brotherhood. His identity connects Indigenous community life, British colonial politics, and the revolutionary conflict. Connor later adopts the name Connor Kenway while operating in the colonial cities and frontier.
The Cherokee, Comanche, and Shawnee are distinct Indigenous nations and are not the correct answer. The wording can also cause confusion because “Mohawk” is the English name commonly used for the Kanien'kehá:ka people, while the game uses Ratonhnhaké:ton for Connor's birth name.
