[edit] Background

Assassins are stealthy fighters who work in the shadows. Assasins can also be unassuming individuals who outwardly appear normal only to add poison to their preys meal or stab them in the back when nobody is looking. Assassin's prefer to wear either regular clothing or dark cloth outfits that hide their face and allow them to act in silence. Most assassin's prefer not to have their intentions known but some have been known to openly flout their occupation, especially if they were particularly good and seeking mercenary work. In addition, an Assassin does not have to be one who kills for money. To be an assassin one must simply kill by surprise, for gain or not.

In Hollow, however, Assassins tend to serve a role more along the lines of a Mercenary or Conscript. Their paid services tend to range from not only being hired hitmen, but also to be bodyguards or soldiers.
