Which Assassin's Creed character is the father of Ratonhnhaké:ton?

The story behind the answer

Haytham Kenway is the father of Ratonhnhaké:ton, better known as Connor, in Assassin's Creed III.

Haytham is introduced as a playable character at the beginning of Assassin's Creed III. He is the son of Edward Kenway and becomes a high-ranking Templar in the American Colonies. His activities contribute to the game's complicated family and ideological conflict.

Ratonhnhaké:ton is the son of Haytham and Kaniehtí:io, a Kanien'kehá:ka woman. He later adopts the name Connor and joins the Assassin Brotherhood. The relationship is central to the story because father and son ultimately serve opposing organizations while sharing a connection to the same historical struggle.

Edward Kenway is Haytham's father, not Connor's. Charles Lee is a Templar ally and rival, while Desmond Miles is a modern-day descendant connected to the Kenway line. The family history continues through several games and spans the Caribbean, Britain, and North America.
