In Assassin’s Creed Rogue, what is the full name of the protagonist who becomes a Templar?
Answer
Shay Patrick Cormac
Answer
Shay Patrick Cormac
Shay Patrick Cormac is the Assassin’s Creed Rogue protagonist who becomes a Templar.
Shay begins the game as an Assassin operating in the North Atlantic during the Seven Years’ War. After a catastrophic mission connected to an earthquake in Lisbon, he loses faith in the Brotherhood’s methods and eventually joins the Templars. The story follows his pursuit of former Assassin allies across North America.
Rogue was released in 2014 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, alongside Assassin’s Creed Unity. Its naval gameplay builds on systems from Black Flag, but Shay’s viewpoint reverses the usual series perspective: the player hunts Assassins and works with Templars.
Shay is distinct from Liam O’Brien, a fellow Assassin and friend who appears in the game, and from Haytham Kenway, who is the Templar protagonist of Assassin’s Creed III’s opening sequence. Rogue also connects directly to Unity through its historical events and characters.
