Assassination


DEFINING
Assassination can be described as the planned 
killing of a person usually with minimal negative 
consequence.  The person is selected by an entity
 - be it a guild, nation, or individual - to 
provide possible advantages for that entity.

EMPLOYMENT
No assassination instructions should be given in 
a note, or any other potentially dangerous area 
where the information may be discovered by anyone.  
Consequently, the decision to attempt an assassination
may often be reached where the act will take place.  
Decision and instructions should be confined to an 
absolute minimum of persons.  No report should be made
unless it can be done secretly, the news will soon
reach the one who desired the assassination to take 
place.  Because the victim of an assassination and 
their associates are likely to be angry, it is
imperative to keep all information about all parties
involved secretive.  If  this cannot be achieved, 
there will be consequences that might effect the parties 
involved politically, and more specifically, diplomatically.

CLASSIFICATIONS
There is more than one type of assassination.  
The technique employed will vary according to whether 
the subject is unaware of his danger, aware but unguarded, 
or guarded.

THE ASSASSIN
An assassin of any kind must be determined, courageous, 
intelligent, resourceful, and a technician with his 
weapons and abilities.  In addition to this, the assassin 
must know the art of spying, so as to bring back valuable 
information to his employer, and good techniques for 
killing, diplomacy, and perhaps thievery.  It is important 
for an assassin to know how to talk to people, so as to 
avoid compromising situations.

PLANNING
The area in which an assassin plans to be working in 
should be well as well known as possible as well as 
the technique they intend to use.  It is important to 
know what they intend to do, how long it will take, 
and what possible encounters may arise.

Everyone has their own technique style, but this 
should not have any major conflict with any of the 
instructions given.  If these rules are followed, a 
skillful assassin can be made.
