James "Jim" Holden | Haytham Kenway's closest friend and former "gentleman's gentleman"

A loyal, stubborn, crude-humored ex-British Army soldier who stayed behind to hold off the guards so Haytham and his sister could escape. For that, he paid a terrible price.

Now he's broken, humiliated, and left to die in the desert sand, clinging to the one hope that his friend will come for him.
