Which Assassin's Creed game first introduced the playable female Assassin Evie Frye?

The story behind the answer

Assassin's Creed Syndicate first introduced the playable female Assassin Evie Frye.

Evie Frye is one of Syndicate's two protagonists, alongside her twin brother Jacob Frye. The game is set in London during the Industrial Revolution, where the siblings work to weaken Templar influence and expand the Assassin Brotherhood's presence in the city.

Evie specializes in stealth and investigation, while Jacob is more closely associated with direct combat and gang leadership. Players can switch between them during much of the campaign, although some missions are assigned to a particular character.

Aveline de Grandpré appeared earlier in Assassin's Creed III: Liberation, and Elise is a major character in Assassin's Creed Unity but is not its playable Assassin protagonist. Evie therefore belongs specifically to Syndicate, the 2015 entry focused on Victorian London.
