Before you can craft this costume you need to either hunt for or purchase from the General Stores certain pelts (there is a General Store located on the island of Nassau). To buy the pelts at the General Store select the hunting goods tab to find thems and then buy the Red Howler Monkey Skin (5,000 R) and White Jaguar Pelt (6,000 R).

Mayan Stelae Puzzle #1:

Great Inagua; completed during DNA Sequence 4, Memory 1.

Mayan Stelae Puzzle #2:

Cat Island (coordinates 736, 692).

Make sure you buy plenty of Harpoon upgrades before you start this event as you will need the extra armour, harpoon storage and strength. Find a Killer Whale hunting location (one can be found at the coordinates: 537, 340 on the world map) and sail until a deck hand announces that prey can be seen. When the prompt button appears Kenway will be sent out to hunt the killer whale. Peg the whale with a harpoon so you follow it but be careful when it dives underwater because when it reappears it will charge the boat. If you do not hit it with a harpoon when it charges the boat you will take some damage. When you have depleted the whales health bar (top left corner of the screen) the event has been completed and you will have earned the Killer Killer Trophy.

This Trophy is awarded when you keep drinking in a tavern until you pass out. This is done by walking up to the bar in a tavern and interacting with a bottle to start drinking. You have to drink at least five times to pass out. A tavern can be found in Nassau, which is one of the first locations you visit during the main story.
