Assassin

Assassins appear on the list of hirelings, but the book describes them fully as a profession. They are dual-classed martial artist/spies who kill for pay, usually as members of a secret society or cult with its own territory, though freelance assassins can sometimes be found in large cities and trading ports. Their fees are normally at least twice what a bounty hunter charges, reflecting the danger of the trade, and they live in deep secrecy because reprisals from their victims' families and friends are common.
