Aveline de Grandpré (1747 – unknown) was an Assassin of French and African heritage, who lived in the area of New Orleans during the middle of the 18th century. She is an ancestor to Subject 1.
Born to the wealthy French merchant Philippe Olivier de Grandpré and an African slave by the name of Jeanne, Aveline was raised in a comfortable and privileged environment. In 1759, after having lost sight of her mother, she mistook another woman to be her parent and reached out to her, attracting the attention of a group of slavers. However, she was rescued by an Assassin called Agaté, who recruited Aveline into the Assassin Brotherhood and became her Mentor.
By the age of 18, Aveline became aware of a slave trafficking operation being ran in New Orleans by a high-ranking Templar, known only as the "Company Man". After eliminating various of his subordinates, she was led to New York, where she sought the aid of Kanien'kehá:ka Assassin, Ratonhnhaké:ton, known by his adopted name of Connor.
With his help, Aveline discovered the Company Man had been her own stepmother, Madeleine de L'Isle, all along. Following a short confrontation in the de Grandpré mansion, Aveline fled to the bayou to inform Agaté, with disastrous consequences. She then returned to Madeleine, pretending to go along with her induction into the Templar Order, before she assassinated all the members present, thus finally ridding New Orleans of Templar influence.
In 2012, her genetic memories became the basis of a publicly released video game titled Liberation, which was developed in partnership by Abstergo Entertainment and Ubisoft.
N.Tropy and his Alternate Self killed her and the vast majority of Team Free Will and threw their bodies at the time bureau to send a message to both Lincoln Loud and Lydia Lopez.
