In Assassin’s Creed Rogue, which former Assassin becomes a Templar after a crisis in Lisbon?

Shay Patrick Cormac becomes a Templar after a crisis in Lisbon in Assassin’s Creed Rogue.

Shay begins the game as an Assassin during the Seven Years’ War. He is sent to recover an Isu precursor manuscript in Lisbon, but the mission triggers a catastrophic earthquake that destroys much of the city. Shay concludes that the Assassins’ pursuit of powerful artifacts is endangering innocent people.

After breaking with the Brotherhood, Shay is rescued by former Templar Haytham Kenway and eventually joins the Templar Order. The game then reverses the usual viewpoint: Shay hunts his former Assassin allies across the North Atlantic, the Appalachian frontier, and New York.

Liam O’Brien is Shay’s Assassin colleague, not the protagonist. Haytham is a Templar mentor and Edward Kenway’s son, while Charles Lee is another Templar figure. Rogue is distinctive because it makes the player character a former Assassin who adopts the opposing faction’s cause.
