==Biography==
Born a slave in the West Indies, the woman was brought to the North American colonies in 1742 by the French government, which had made her the wife of the executioner Mathieu Léveillé in the hope that her presence would cure his depression. However, due to the risks of infection, she was scarcely allowed in Léveillé's presence; nonetheless, Léveillé confided in her his knowledge on the Isu and she promised to keep it safe.Assassin's Creed: Rogue – War Letters: "Death of the Executioner"
After Léveillé's death, she was baptized Angélique-Denise and subsequently put up for sale. On 10 May 1744, she was purchased by the Assassin John de la Tour, who suspected she possessed the information he had come to Quebec for. Angélique subsequently became acquainted with de la Tour and his fellow Assassin Achilles Davenport, whose prompting inspired her to change her name to Abigail. In the next year, she and Achilles grew closer.
In 1745, Abigail and Achilles traveled with de la Tour to the fortress of Louisbourg in search of Nicolas Court's safe house, posing as de la Tour's slaves so that he would appear incredibly wealthy. As English troops laid siege to Louisbourg, Achilles and de la Tour prepared for the attack while Abigail continued looking for Court's hiding place and eventually found it. However, the safe house was empty save for a cryptic message that convinced Achilles of the need to start a new branch of the Assassin Brotherhood in New York.Assassin's Creed: Rogue – War Letters: "The Siege of Louisbourg"
