Which Assassin's Creed protagonist is the son of pirate Edward Kenway?

Haytham Kenway is the son of pirate Edward Kenway in Assassin's Creed.

Edward is the central character of Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag, while Haytham appears prominently in Assassin's Creed III. Haytham was born in England and later became a high-ranking Templar, placing him on the opposing side of the Assassin-Templar conflict.

Haytham's son is Ratonhnhaké:ton, better known as Connor, the playable Assassin who leads much of Assassin's Creed III. This family connection makes the Kenways one of the most important bloodlines in the series. Edward, Haytham, and Connor each belong to different generations and different historical conflicts.

A common mix-up is treating Edward and Haytham as allies in the same role. Edward is a pirate who becomes involved with the Assassins, whereas Haytham is introduced as a Templar leader. Their relationship is explored through the transition from Black Flag to Assassin's Creed III.
