James Kidd is one of the famous characters in the game “Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag”. His personality is shrouded in mystery, because in fact a girl is hiding under men's clothing. A brief story about her and passing quests with a character search can be found in the article.
Childhood, military service
The young girl Mary Reid took the name of James Kidd after she decided to become a pirate. From childhood, she had to dress up as a boy for her grandmother, with whom she lived, since she could not tolerate female children. So the girl lived for ten years, after which she entered the service of a sailor in the British Navy.
During her stay in India, she met with the leader of the order of the killers A-Tabay there. Mary was able to understand the principles of brotherhood, his goals pleased the young girl. She was accepted into the ranks of the brothers, after which the next mention of her appeared a few years later, in 1715. Then she, under the guise of Kidd, met with the main character and several other captains.
Friendship with the protagonist of the game
Under the name of James Kidd, Mary met Edward Kenway, with whom she raided a sugarcane plantation. It was this mission that laid the foundation for a strong friendship. Together, the captains tried to defend their "Pirate Republic", and also stormed the Spanish ship led by the Templar Julien Ducasse.
Soon, Mary Reid led the protagonist to the Mayan treasury and said that a puzzle is hidden behind these doors, having solved it, you can become incredibly powerful and rich. Under the guise of James, the girl showed Edward secret paths to the house of Ducasse, where a map with the camps of the members of the order was discovered. It was a shock to her to know that it was the protagonist who sold this document to the Templars. She made him warn the other brothers that trouble was coming.
The next time the two pirates met only a few weeks later in Yucatan, where Mary introduced Edward to A-Tabai.
Further adventures
Under the guise of James Kidd, Mary Reid in Yucatan asks her mentor for permission for Edward to take her to the Mayan Temple. She says that he has an unearthly "vision." Only inside the temple did the girl tell Kenway the whole truth about her brotherhood and offered to join them.
The next joint mission was the hunt for the slave trader from Holland, Laurence Prince, who was supposed to lead them to the captive sage Bartholomew Roberts. Before the hunt for him begins, Mary reveals to Edward her true identity. This becomes a real shock for the protagonist, but does not prevent him from continuing to follow her.
During the assignment, the girl was captured by the sage himself, who did not believe the pirates. Edward managed to divert the attention of the man so that Reed got out. Together they managed to escape.
Their further adventures are hunting for Jack Rackham, pirate crafts and two captives. The last of them ended in childbirth and death.
