The advisor
Jacques de Molay's advisor (unknown – 13 October 1307) was a member of the Templar Order who served under the Grand Master Jacques de Molay.[1]
On 13 October 1307, the advisor was tasked by the Grand Master to hide the Sword of Eden and the Codex Pater Intellectus, during an attack by the forces of King Philip the Fair. The Templar was successful in his mission, but was killed by the Master Assassin Thomas de Carneillon shortly after.[1]
In 2014, modified representations[2] of the advisor's memories stored in the Helix were explored by an Assassin initiate.[1]
Trivia
- The advisor is one of three playable Templars in the series' main campaigns, the other two being Haytham Kenway and Shay Cormac.
- It is highly irregular that the advisor's memories are available, as genetic memory stipulates that an ancestor's memories become unavailable upon the conception of their descendant's next in line. The only instance that Abstergo Industries could formulate and experience his genetic material through the Surrogate Initiative, Data Dump Scanner or the Helix Navigator is through a direct sample, as the advisor is depicted to have been killed by Thomas de Carniellon and not bore an heir, or if so then his memories could not have been relived through their descendant due to the restriction listed above.
- In addition, it is deemed that François-Thomas Germain's remains were unavailable to Abstergo upon his burial in the Parisian catacombs, although if this is due to ascertaining the corpse as opposed to decomposition, it calls into question how Abstergo Industries obtained such a direct sample of the advisor's genetic material for them to modify.
