Davis Samuel-Pearce, more commonly known as Mutiny is a eighteen year old grey hat hacker turned vigilante who operates within the centeral city of NCRP. Outside of the hacker and vigilante work, Mutiny attends university on a cyber security course under the alias of Joey Crispin. Mutiny is portrayed by PropaneNightmarez.
== Background ==
=== Early Life ===
Mutiny was born in Forest Gate to Mary Campbell, a woman who was not suited to be a mother due to her crumbling mental state and overreliance on medication to keep her crumbling mental state afloat. This mental state was caused by Mary being a Sage, the memories of Aita conflicting with her own thus causing her mind to fall to pieces and thus her mistreatment of her only son, Mutiny. His care under his mother ended at age five as an Assassin Brotherhood alligned hacker known as Joel Samuel broke the peace after it was discovered Mary was trying to open communications with Abstergo which wouldn't have bode well for the still free London. Mary ended up incarcerated in a mental hospital due to her crumbling mental state.
=== 2012 ===
This was a quiet year for both Mutiny and Joel until November, that month was the month Mutiny found himself kidnapped and Joel found himself losing his life at the hands of the gang who had kidnapped Mutiny, it was around this time, fresh into his tenure as 'The Vigilante' after the death of his niece, Aiden Pearce had stumbled across Mutiny whilst clearing out the warehouse that the young child was contained in and freed him, taking up responsbility to return the child to his father. What the two were greeted to instead was the apartment boarded off with police tape and the body of Joel in a body bag so Aiden took Mutiny in to make sure nothing else would happen to the young child. Christmas was a good day according to Mutiny as it was just him and Aiden in the motel room spending the day together and opening small inexpensive gifts during the day.
=== 2013 ===
The year of 2013 up until September was a normal year with Mutiny celebrating his eighth birthday in the July of that year. September came with Mutiny staying at the motel room whilst his father dealt with an issue at May Stadium involving the events of 2012 and the death of his niece, Lena Pearce. Mutiny was kept mostly in the dark to protect him, that is until Aiden had to sneak into Palin Correctional Centre, leaving Aiden to confess what was going on with the past to Mutiny who managed to digest the information and was left in the care of fixer Jordi Chin. During this, Mutiny was taken into the town to keep the young child calm whilst his father was undercover, this led to Mutiny finding a brown fox plush with a missing eye and a mangled ear that had made it pass inspection in the plush bin, after enough convincing, he gained the plush toy and kept it with him for the rest of the day and would constantly hold onto it as it reminded him of Aiden.
Eventually Mutiny moved to The Bunker with Aiden after the destruction of the motel room, understandably rattled by everything that had occured so he was taken on a trip round all the places he usually went with Aiden to calm his nerves. For the rest of what went down, his aunt being freed etc, Mutiny was left in the dark out of his own wishes, asking Aiden to tell him instead when he's older and when he can properly digest the information and be less 'crumbly' as he put it, a showcase of those dormant Sage traits inherited from his mother shining through. By the end of the month, leading into October, Mutiny left Chicago with Aiden, still carrying that brown fox plush which had now gained a red scarf made by Mutiny whilst in the motel room alone whilst Aiden was out on the job so to speak.
2013 continued on from this point with the two moving across the states, from St Louis to New Orleans, anywhere was good. Mutiny remembers Halloween and seeing various kids dressed as The Vigilante despite what had happened in Chicago, Mutiny joined in after convincing Aiden just so he could feel like a normal kid with a normal life for once, he did get a lot of sweets out of how good his costume was and how accurate his impression was. Christmas was also normal with Mutiny getting an old Dell Latitude D600 from the computer repair shop Joel used to work at as a cover prior to his murder, it became what Mutiny learnt to program on as he got older, picking up various programming tips from Aiden who opted to slowly introduce Mutiny to the world he was in instead of hiding it fully from him or shoving him in the deep end, it made balancing Mutiny and being The Vigilante a bit easier.
=== 2014 to 2021 ===
The years of 2014 through to 2021 were normal, or as normal as moving from town to town, city to city to avoid being found. It was a rough few years but Mutiny and Aiden stayed close to the point of Aiden caving and fully training the excitable Mutiny who picked up on everything quite quickly as he started to come to terms with his mother's actions and what caused them but also how what caused them (her being a Sage) affects him, especially with how he started to show more and more traits yet he had Aiden to talk to and rely on as he started to come to terms with his situation.
=== 2022 ===
Visiting London, Mutiny made a small trip to confront his mother which led to nothing but cryptic wording as her mind had degraded from the merging of her and Aita's memories. After he left, Mutiny was noticed by Dedsec and eventually herded into their hideout where he became aquainted with Bagley, someone who would become very important to Mutiny later down the line. He was promptly given the run through on things, more importantly to do with Albion, it's leader Nigel Cass, Broca Tech and it's leader, Skye Larsen. From there, Mutiny worked within London round the clock to free it from Albion control.
This eventually spurred into a confrontation between Cass himself and Mutiny at the Tower of London with Cass talking down both the hacker and Dedsec as a whole before the fight properly began, Mutiny had the possible chance to spare Cass and let him live another day to repent for his actions but there was no clearer path than to slay the metaphorical beast and to rid the city of Albion one last time for the sake of the entire city, thus gaining the moniker 'Champion of London' as someone who fought for London's freedom, literally and figuratively.
He was the one who shut Bagley down after finding out Sabine Brandt was Zero-Day the whole time; Promising to never forget someone who meant so much to him in so little time whilst he performed the shut-down, thus proving the two had a close bond even in the short amount of time they'd known each other. Luckily for both, that wasn't the end as a drone carrying a backup of Bagley was found and successfully brought back by Dedsec. Mutiny refused to leave the hideout for a few days to make sure nothing else happened to Bagley as he was still emotionally shaken up from losing his best friend but luckily the most he got from Bagley was a light slap on the wrist for his nervous and worried behaviour.
=== 2023 - Now (NCRP Prime Timeline) ===
Currently living in the central city of NCRP and acting as the leader of the Dedsec branch within the city, he's made a good life for himself as a hacker and as a vigilante type figure. He's responsible for returning a very important drive to a very important friend of his. 
==== The PFL Saga: ====
[THE EVENTS OF THIS SAGA ARE ONGOING AND ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE] 
The events of the PFL saga begin with someone letting themself into Mutiny's hideout, pulling a blanket over him and placing his fox plush under his arm, indicating that they're someone close to him. Before leaving they left a phone which Mutiny found and rang the only contact in it, revealing the person to be none other than his father, Aiden. The physical reunion was tense but they managed to come to good terms after Aiden explained himself and why he's there. 
However later during the night, Mutiny found himself out of his body with someone else piloting it whilst his body was covered in glowing lines - the same lines that covered those that were Isu, a remant of his still dormant Sage genetics. Whoever was piloting his body promised that he'd take care of them both and that he wasn't a threat but much rather someone who cared to the point of identifying Aiden as an ally and not as an adversary. 
Yet further in the night within a dream, Mutiny came face to face with the man piloting his body, who was none other than Edward Kenway. The two discussed about how this was the return of the Templars, still going by the Abstergo Industries name and how they were out for blood. Due to the facts that they were ancestor and descendant and that they both shared affilations with the Assassin Brotherhood, they decided to face this hell together, hand in hand. 
From there, contact had been made with one Carrie J Kaczmarek who Mutiny had worked with before as she'd been cornered by a past issue, 'The Protect Fallen Lives Foundation' or just PFL who made a surprise inspection upon her, causing Carrie to lash out to which it was revealed they knew she was a Philips and thus a threat to them. Mutiny went through both a device and key card she'd stolen, correctly identifying that PFL likely possessed Carrie's FIB file from 2013 depicting everything she did then, thus solidifying to Carrie that they're a threat. Whilst she had a tense phone call with her father and then a rather calm conversation with Aiden who heard a lot of the call. 
From there, Mutiny deduced with the help of a photojournalist friend of his that Merryweather is buddy buddy with PFL and that's how they knew who Carrie was, the connection was made that both Merryweather and Abstergo are using PFL as a vector to do their dirty work without anymore public scrutiny from opposing parties thus a new ally to the table had to be brought in, Ione Swire. 
The plan currently is that Carrie will sneak into PFL's HQ as 'Tanya Thompson' whilst Ione will sneak under the guise as a member of the repair crew to find out why PFL is doing this and how to stop this. After the two left, Mutiny made the request for someone called 'Lumpy' before joking "At least we're not waiting for a DeSoto?" 
== Apperance ==
Mutiny is a 5ft 9 eighteen year old with long dirty blond hair often tied into a low ponytail with a few scars littering his face along side the faint gesture of facial hair. He also has heterochromia (two different eye colours, one being brown and the other being green) alongside anisocoria (two different pupil sizes) as a passed on trait from his mother due to her Sage genetics however the heterochromia is different within Mutiny as it's not blue and brown but instead green and brown. He's often dressed in a grey hoodie, blue jumper, creme button up, black fingerless gloves, blue jeans and black work boots with a necklace with a blue pendant around his neck. 
== Personality ==
He seems friendly and jokey but sometimes that friendly and jokey mask can slip revealing someone who is deeply troubled by the past and deeply traumatised by it by slowly creating ways to prevent losing people like how he lost someone such as Sami. He also tends to rarely interact with people outside of those he closely knows (ie: Nate, Carrie etc) to prevent a loss he can avoid. He does often come out of his shell if conversations about technology occur but it tends to be snobbish if someone says something that is completely wrong about technology.
== Abilities and Skills ==
=== High Intelligence ===
Mutiny possess a high intelligence both naturally and through his Sage genetics, this is useful when he's hacking or just planning something out. It makes him suited to be a leader even when he feels he isn't suited to it.
=== Hacking Skills ===
A learnt skill from his father, a master hacker in his own regard with his own backdoors into ctOS from a brief internship with Blume before they figured out who he is but they are yet to find his backdoors. It's his main trick and is his best skill.
=== Combat Skills ===
Fairly well versed in his hand to hand combat, Mutiny puts up a tough fight with both his fists and two options for telescopic baton, regular and stun. It makes fighting easier and gives him an advantage against most people in a fight when he seems 'cornered'.
=== Repair Skills ===
His repair skills are only bested by his hacking skills, often repairing his computers, servers, batons etc. It's gotten him places by acting as repair crew for somewhere and actually competently performing his faux job whilst leaving his own backdoors.
=== Athletic Skills ===
Capable of free running, outrunning police etc, his athletic skills have paid off and feed right into his combat skills as he can use bouncing off of places to deliver a swift kick or just to outrun anyone following him, be it guards or the police.
=== Eagle Vision ===
A recently obtained skill after his possession, this allows Mutiny's vision to display allies, adversaries and targets; Blue indicates allies, red indicates adversaries, gold indicates targets or objects of interest. Sources of information and hiding spots are indicated with a white glow. Anyone or anything that doesn't fit these boxes are indicated in just greyscale however it tends to not be completely trustworthy due to how new it is to him.
== Relationships ==
=== Aiden Pearce ===
Despite rough times, they're incredibly close even when both of them didn't know they were related by blood as Aiden treated Mutiny as an equal in everything and made sure the young child knew he was safe and welcome no matter what. They both let down their guarded walls for each other out of a realisation that they were the closest they were having to family again. They're still quite close, perhaps becoming a bit closer once they found out they were biologically father and son. They both have their traumas but they're working on trying to come to terms with some of the stuff together, from Aiden losing Lena to Mutiny and his mother. The shared trauma helped strengthen their bonds as they found a mutual thing to bond over.
=== Mary Campbell ===
Mutiny doesn't speak fondly of his mother due to her treatment of him and how she treated him as nothing more than a toy due to her dellusions of grandure involving her son. Mary herself rarely called Mutiny by his name, often barking out 'girl' to get his attention or 'slipping' up and referring to him as 'Juno' although Mutiny now understands that was because of Mary being a Sage and her memories mixing with Aita's memories causing the woman to be extremely unstable.
=== Joel Samuel ===
Joel is someone Mutiny speaks of with a fondness for how lovingly he treated him even if he only was cared for by Sami for two years. Despite the brief time, there's little sparks of Sami within Mutiny's behaviour which causes him to smile. Sami left behind a lot of things for Mutiny which are still in Chicago as he hasn't had the time after London to retrieve them. He does keep a photo of him and Sami with him in a locket everywhere he goes to keep his papa with him.
=== Cassidy Murray-Miles ===
Someone Mutiny feels he can trust with a lot of the past, being his paternal cousin through a half sister of his dad's, they get on due to both experiencing the weirdness of having family who were with the Brotherhood and losing a father. Mutiny oftens invites Cassidy round, not to discuss things going on within the world but to just act like idiots teen which they lacked the ability to do as kids because of the issues at hand. Cassidy knows that Mary is a Sage and laughed since her half brother is a Sage himself.
=== Bagley ===
They're incredibly close, forming a close bond during Mutiny's time in London to the point of rarely being seen without the other. The friendship became something a little more for Bagley first as he realised how much he cared for Mutiny's wellbeing after how much Mutiny had shown he cared. This fostered a strange dynamic until Mutiny felt himself feeling the same about Bagley. This eventually evolved into a proper romantic relationship, or as much of a proper romantic relationship between a hacker and an AI. It's at least quite sweet and quite healthy.
== Trivia ==
* Mutiny is named after the Pendulum song by the same name.
* Somehow retained his Cockney accent, he thinks it's funny.
* His design intentionally was based on Edward Kenway's design.
