The Assassin
The assassin is the master of dealing quick, lethal blows. Assassins also excel at infiltration and disguise. Assassins often function as spies, informants, killers for hire, or agents of vengeance. Their training in anatomy, stealth, poison, and the dark arts allow them to carry out missions of death with shocking, terrifying precision.

A death attack is essentially a sneak attack that deals 1d6 extra damage per assassin level. Example- a death attack from a level 8 assassin would deal 8d6 extra damage.
