"My enemy is a notion, not a nation." Conner is most likely an INFP. In Assassin's Creed: Forsaken (which details the events of Haytham's life told in his point of view, from his journal), Connor adds one last entry to it after his father's death (and after the events of Assassin's Creed III). It is incredibly retrospective, and Connor goes into great depth in how he hoped to change his father's perspective to see the world "how he did." Despite his father being a clear, dangerous enemy, Connor was more interested in fighting against his father's ideas, not against him himself. Connor also hoped that by supporting the revolutionaries, he could cleanse the movement from Templar "influence." Connor sympathized and thought he could bring the Assassins and Templars together because he primarily battled against ideas and ideologies, he was not as concerned with the individual people who were vessels for those ideologies (besides Charles Lee, who Connor likely directed all of his anger and trauma towards as a coping mechanism). Achilles on the other hand, had no issue deeming this people worthy to die. He would be this way with even major Revolutionary figures, such Sam Adams on the topic of slavery. In this discussion for example, Connor is firmly set in his principles (as is usually the way for an Fi dom). But he then displays those ideas through abstract discussions, and dialouge. The concept of a "free person" is incredibly subjective, and here Connor and Sam don't come to an agreement on this issue. Sam Adams: “We must focus first on defending our rights. When this is done, we'll have the luxury of addressing these other matters.” Connor: “You speak as though your condition is equal to that of the slaves. It is not.” Sam Adams: “Tell that to my neighbor - who was compelled to quarter British troops. Or to my friend who's store was closed because he displeased the Crown. The people here are no freer than Surry.” Connor: “You offer excuses instead of solutions. All people should be equal and not in turns.” Back to his epilogue piece at the end of Forsaken (which I think is probably one of the best pieces of writing in the series, which adds a whole new dimension to Connor's character). Connor had just lost almost everything, his family, his home, his people, and his mentor. He then starts to question himself, and starts to ponder whether his father held the "correct" view of the world. But he then still chooses to keep fighting back. It's clear that he primarily sees the world through his moral compass (Fi), but how he engages with it is through abstract idealism and philosophical questioning (Ne). I'll leave the rest of his Forsaken epilogue speech here, and hopefully if it even doesn't convince you that Connor is an INFP, it at least convinces you that Connor deserves a lot more recognition than he gets. "Were we not meant to live in Peace then? Is that it? Are we born to argue, to fight? So many voices, each demanding something else. It has been hard at times but never harder than today. To see all I worked for perverted, discarded, forgotten. You would say I would have described the whole of history Father. Are you smiling then? Hoping I might speak the words you long to hear, to validate you, to say all along you were right? I will not. Even now, faced as I am with the truth of your cold words, I refuse. Because I believe things can still change. I may never succeed. The Assassins may struggle another thousand years in vain, but we will not stop." Compromise, that is what everyone has insisted upon. And so I have learned it, but differently than most I think. I realize now that it will take time. That the road ahead is long and shrouded in darkness. It is a road that will not always take me where I wish to go. And I doubt I will live to see its end, but I will travel down it none the less. For at my side walks hope, in the face of all that insists I turn back, I carry on. This, this is my compromise. "
