Alan Rikkin came from a powerful wealthy family in England. He had the best education in the finest schools, and was given everything he needed to make something of his life.
He took over his father’s businesses and expanded them globally.
He like his father, was a Templar and believed everything they had taught him. His goals in life were matched to advance to the Templar cause.
He fell in love with and married Ellen Kaye, the only thing he ever did against the Templars, and they had one daughter – Sofia Rikkin. When the pressure against them became too much, the two divorced and Alan raised their daughter, telling her that Assassins had killed her mother.
It was his daughter’s theories about inherent memories, that gave him the idea about trying to find the legendary ‘Apple’ by putting descendants of famed Assassins into a Simulator.
It failed until they met Callum Lynch … then everything changed.
