Havelock, Pendleton, and Martin.
This article is about the Loyalist Conspiracy. You may be looking for the mission The Loyalists.
The Loyalist Conspiracy is a small group of disgruntled Dunwall citizens, headed by Admiral Farley Havelock, nobleman Treavor Pendleton, and Overseer Teague Martin. Their long term goal is to overthrow the Lord Regent, Hiram Burrows, and reinstate Emily Kaldwin, the true Empress of Dunwall and daughter of the late Empress, Jessamine Kaldwin.
They seek to disrupt Burrows' power base, and to this end, use their connections to free former Lord Protector Corvo Attano from Coldridge Prison the day before his execution.
Their main base of operations is at the Hound Pits Pub.
Dishonored
Inception
Following the assassination of Empress Jessamine Kaldwin and Burrows' rise to power, the three leading members of the Loyalist Conspiracy gathered at the Hound Pits, owned by Havelock, in the quarantined Distillery District. There they gathered their resources (including Pendleton's funds, Martin's connections, and Havelock's staff) and utilized them to put plans to overthrow the Lord Regent into action.
Realizing that Corvo Attano--with his legendary fighting skills and personal vendetta against the Lord Regent--would be an invaluable asset to their cause, they set about preparing to release him from Coldridge Prison.
They commissioned Piero Joplin's services in preparing weapons to be left in the sewers for Corvo, and Martin used his connections to bribe a prison guard into giving Corvo a key to his cell. Despite these preparations, Havelock gave Corvo "odds of 1 in 5" of making a successful escape.[1]
Against Havelock's prediction, Corvo is able to escape and meet Samuel Beechworth at the chosen rendezvous point. However, Martin's treachery is discovered, and he is imprisoned in Holger's Square by his fellow Overseers.
Assassination Targets
Upon Corvo's arrival at the Hound Pits Pub, he can briefly meet with the various occupants of the Hound Pits, including servants Callista Curnow, Lydia Brooklaine, and Wallace Higgins; boatman Samuel Beechworth; and the Conspiracy's founding members. Havelock then charges him with retrieving Martin, whose tactical expertise and personal connections are critical to the success of the Conspiracy. He also tasks Corvo with neutralizing Thaddeus Campbell and procuring the man's blackmail notebook. after Martin is freed, he uses the book to blackmail his way back into the Overseer order and eventually into the position of High Overseer itself.
Pendleton then asks Corvo to eliminate his brothers, Custis and Morgan Pendleton, so their Parliamentary votes may pass to him[2]. While Pendleton makes the request himself for the sake of the gentry's holdings[3], he is deeply distressed by the loss of his brother's, treating Corvo with contempt when he believes the man has killed them. While seeking the two out at the Golden Cat pleasure house, Corvo also rescues Emily, bringing her to the Hound Pits where Callista takes her on as a charge.
On Havelock and Martin's orders, Corvo successively abducts Royal Physician Anton Sokolov[4] and neutralizes Burrows' financial backer and mistress Lady Boyle[5]. Over the course of these missions, recordings are left by various Conspiracy members--including Piero[6], Pendleton[7], and Havelock[8]--expressing their thoughts on the Conspiracy's progress. The tone of some of the entries will differ depending on Corvo's chaos.
As the attack on Burrows draws nearer, Havelock's musings become increasingly apprehensive, pondering the Conspiracy's future and the complications they will face moving into Dunwall Tower.
Aftermath
Following Burrows' elimination, the Conspiracy devolves into chaos. Havelock, Pendleton and Martin, fearing the repercussions of their actions, poison Corvo and betray and murder the other conspirators. They then kidnap Emily to Kingsparrow Island, claiming that Havelock "will take control [of the Empire] until she comes of an age in which she is fit to rule,"[citation needed] effectively becoming the new Lord Regent. Corvo is then tasked with eliminating them as he did with all the other assassination targets in order to rescue Emily and put her in her rightful place as Empress.
