Revolutionary Technology

For a while, genetic memories remained a pseudo-scientific subject. But now with Abstergo's brilliant minds and dedicated research, The Animus has proven what once was considered fiction to be real. Callum Lynch, a prisoner sentenced to death by lethal injection, was saved by Abstergo and had his identity erased, is now the unwitting user of the Animus, as Sofia Rikkin, daughter of Abstergo's CEO, Alan Rikkin, attempts to use his genetic memory of his Spanish ancestor, Aguilar to find the origins of human violence, in attempts to find a solution for it in present day.

Their lives intersect and change forever, as well as those of the people they touch, as an ancient conflict between two dominating factions operating behind the scenes and changing the world throughout history appear to still exist in present day.
