"I realize now that it will take time, that the road ahead is long and shrouded in darkness. It is a road that will not always take me where I wish to go – and I doubt I will live to see it end. But I will travel down it nonetheless." - Ratonhnhaké:ton (Connor Kenway) - 1783.

Ratonhnhaké:ton (1756 – unknown), often known by the adopted name of Connor, was a Native American Assassin of the Kanien'kehá:ka during the time of the American Revolutionary War, and is an ancestor of Desmond Miles, through the paternal line.

Ratonhnhaké:ton was born to the Templar Haytham Kenway and Kaniehtí:io, a Native American woman of the Kanien'kehá:ka village in Kanatahséton. In 1760, while he was still a young child, he was assaulted by Charles Lee and other members of the Templar Order seeking the spiritsanctuary his people guarded, and then watched as his village burned down and his mother died.

Growing up concerned by the outside world's impact on his people, Ratonhnhaké:ton joined the Assassin Order to prevent the Templars from returning. Finding the Templars had all but destroyed the Colonial Assassins, Ratonhnhaké:ton convinced Achillies Davenport to train him. Using Connor as an adopted pseudonym, he revitalized the Order by recruiting craftsmen to renovate the Davenport Homestead and the Assassin ship, the
Aquila. Robert Faulkner subsequently trained him to captain the ship, while Ratonhnhaké:ton inducted six more Assassins into the Order.

In hunting the Templars, Ratonhnhaké:ton aided the Patriot Movement and protected George Washington – unwittingly becoming an important figure in the American Revolution. However, he was conflicted by wanting to reconcile with his father, despite Achilles' warnings as to the futility of uniting the Assassin and Templar philosophies, which ultimately had tragic consequences when it became clear Haytham refused to stop protecting Lee.

Upon learning that it was Washington, not Lee, who had burned his village, Ratonhnhaké:ton became disillusioned with the Revolutionaries, but continued using them to aid in the eradication of the Templars. He reluctantly accepted Washington's request for help investigating Benedict Arnoldand then in disposing of an Apple of Eden he had recovered. The latter incident saw Ratonhnhaké:ton trapped in a reality constructed by the Apple, one wherein Washington ruled as king through tyranny. Eventually, Ratonhnhaké:ton escaped this reality and disposed of the Apple.
