Why does Connor not like being touched? | Forums

Maybe it was because they hated Mohawks as Lee described them as "ilk"?

Then it still doesn't make sense that Johnson knocks him in the head with a rifle. He had a good relation with the Mohawk.

What does ilk mean?

A breed or class, and he added that they were living in the dirt like animals.

Which is what I'm still confused about... maybe because he wasn't as helpful as they thought he would be?

What does ilk mean?

In the most basic sense all it meant was "you and all those like you" whether that be of race or ideology, I'm sure he was referring to both.

ilk is a group of people or things already referred to in a sentence in Lee's case it was "You and all your ilk"

It is not an insult.

I think the insult was when he said "living in the dirt like animals."

Precisely. Ilk itself wasn't the insult, that was ;P.

Corey May remembered the Templars had to be dastardly otherwise we would look bad killing them. So he quickly wrote that in.

well... I think it not also combines native customs of not touching people outside of your family, but I think it also has something to do with them being white colonist in general and not trusting them. When you think about it Connor did say in one of the trailers how does he accept outsiders when part of him is that outsider?

Still don't get why the Templars battered the living ****e out of poor Little Connor.

Before then, and after, they weren't portrayed as that monstrous.

To manipulate Connor into running back and telling stories of how scary the colonists are and to not to be roadblock in their way.

Cause they spend hours making the Templars look like Mother Teresa just to pull off 'the twist' and forgot the story needed villains. Honestly, that plot twist, while cool on its own, was one of the worst things that happened to AC3

Maybe Connor is secretly tickelish...
