	~~====Never Wore the Hood====~~
	~~I was one of this city's executioners. I never wore the hood of my office. My face is known to all.~~

	~~====Death Whispers====~~
	~~I am a masterless man now, but I am not without a mistress. Death whispers in my ear, driving me on. The nightmares are real. They are here. She won't tell me where. But I will find them.~~

	~~====I Killed An Honorable Man====~~
	I killed my master. It was a lawful and just killing if I am to believe the one who gave the order. All that is unlawful is for me to speak of it. He died in his sleep. How hard do you have to snore, I wonder, that your head just up and rolls away in your sleep?

	~~===Combat===~~
	*Hit Die d8
	*Initiative: +1
	*Speed: 7
	*AC: 12
	*Dispostion: ?
	*Psychic Armor: 0
	~~====Weapons====~~
	*Weapon 1 Attack +X to hit
	*Weapon 2 Attack +Y to hit

	~~===Restrictions===~~
	* Can't be Good alignment
	* Can't hide/sneak in plate or encumbered
	* No attack bonus while wearing plate.

	~~===Skills===~~
	~~Assassins are skilled at climbing, disarming traps, handling poisons, hiding,~~
	~~hunting, moving silently and stealthily, picking locks, tinkering with mechanisms,~~
	~~and keeping their gear in good working order.~~

	'''Background Skill - Barber:''' As you might imagine, it is not every day that an executioner's services are needed and only so many hours he can spend sharpening his blade in readiness for the next. I am no battlefield barber. My skills lean more toward death than healing. But I cut my master's hair and beard and groomed those beholden to his house. It is not a skill I can live on. As a general rule, even honest folk are not in a hurry to let a trained executioner take a blade to any part of their heads. But the children. the orphans of the streets, the old and infirm, the sick and the cast out - these I serve as I can, as they allow.

	~~===Special Abilities===~~
	* Add LV to attack
	* Inflict damage twice on surprise/sneak [auto-hit]
	* Add Dex to surprise rolls if higher than Int
	* Armor Rating = 10 + LV when unarmored

	~~===Spells===~~
	*'''Lingering Effect:''' ''Untouched by Blood'' - I don't know how long I had been an executioner when I first noticed it, but blood refuses to cling to me. No matter how messy the execution, no matter how horrific the kill, the blood just rolls away. It won't stain my clothes. It won't mar my skin. Only my blade comes away red.
	*Spells - None

	~~===Equipment===~~
	~~Encumbrance = 1/4 \| Small Items 7/10~~
	*Worn
	** Simple sturdy clothes and shoes.
	** Bastard Sword and Dagger (r, s)
	** Simple metal helm worn under my haik (head wrap and veil). It makes an excellent soup bowl in a pinch. (0)
	*Backpack
	** Thief Tools (s)
	** Barber's Kit (outfitted for actual barbering, not field surgery) (s)
	** Compass (faithfully marks true north as nearly due west and glows faintly by moonlight) (s)
	** My master's embroidered handkerchief. I used it to wipe my blade after I took his head. It serves as a reminder of how quickly and easily one can fall. (t)
	** 2 weeks rations (2s)
	** A small vial of powder that makes common flames change color when burned. It amuses the orphans while I cut their hair. I tell them it is faerie dust. It is. It is what the lesser Fae crumble into when you have to kill them. (s)

	*Coinpurse
	** 60c
	*Other (secret stash among the roof tiles of the orphanage that is my Notable Institution).
	** Short bow and two dozen arrows (r, t, t)
	** Spring loaded rat trap. A man might live humbly, but that's no reason he should starve. (s)
	** An elaborate sculpture of human vertebra, gently carved and pieced together. (2)

	~~===Special Moves===~~

	~~===Notes===~~
	* '''Notable Institution:''' Qar is a patron of one of the larger orphanages in the city. He knows despite the intervention of the priestesses, most of these kids will be fodder for the gangs, but he does what he can to help. In return he has been surprised at how often the children and priestesses alike willingly supply him with tidbits of gossip from throughout the city.
