Benjamin Pritchard

Benjamin Pritchard (unknown – January 1713) was a member of the Templar Order and the captain of Amazon Galley for the East India Company.

In 1713, his ship was attacked by the Emperor, a privateer-turned-pirate ship on which Edward Kenway was serving. Tortured, the templar was put under the guard of Kenway, whom watching his burned hands saw Pritchard's templar ring, with which the pirate was familiar after the attack on his family in Bristol. Pritchard then promised to reveal the true meaning of his ring to Kenway, and help him with finding the men who had set fire to his parents' house, if the young man helped him to escape. But before Kenway could set Pritchard free, the templar was impaled on the sword of the Emperor 's captain, Alexander Dolzell, when Edward Thatch, then a privateer, came to the rescue of the Galley.
