Canu's death

Perceval Canu was a French dandy of noble descent, and he purchased a spot of land in Panama's city of Portobello in Colon Province in 1701. There, he built a plantation that manufactured sugar to be sold to several countries, with a tax being imposed on it by Spain, an ally of France who hosted him in exchange for the small slice of his pie. Canu also joined the Templar Order, who offered to help his plantation in exchange for his help in rooting out and destroying the Assassin Order in the Caribbean.

Canu's business resumed as usual as he assisted in the assassination of the rival order. Assassin Damiette Bellanger was dispatched to assassinate Canu in 1701 at his plantation, but Canu shot her with a pistol, preventing her from carrying out her job. Canu then focused on destroying Assassin bases in Panama, expanding his influence to include large portions of the country.

Death[]

His plans were stopped when Bellanger returned to his plantation to assassinate him in 1715 after assassinating his associates across the Caribbean, ending his monopoly over the sugar plantations in Panama by destroying many of them. He was snuck up on in his ballroom, where Bellanger stabbed him through the neck with her dagger. Canu revealed that all he sought was his own kingdom and money, and he did not care much for killing other humans. His death cut down the Templar Order's income from the sugar plantations and wiped out their brotherhood in Panama.
