In the video game "", the character Agaté mentions François Mackandal as having been his Assassin mentor, and also recalls how Mackandal was burned at the stake following his failed attempt to poison the colonists of Saint-Domingue. The game portrays a false Mackandal who is actually another character called Baptiste, who according to Agaté was once a brother and has also been trained by the real Mackandal. The character uses a Skull face painting and like the real Mackandal he is missing his right arm. Mackandal is also mentioned many times in "Assassin's Creed Rogue".
