Base Class: Rogue
The Brotherhood of assassins prides itself on its secrecy, and is feared for their ruthlessness. A true assassin uses reason and logic to determine what is best for the common good, rejecting blind faith. Their ideology focuses on the preservation of free will, and the growth of individuality. Using the environment as our ally, with the help of deception and stealth, we strive to manipulate or eliminate hostility by suppressing both sides of conflict.
The Brotherhood's Creed: "Stay your blade from the flesh of an innocent"
"Hide in plain sight"
"Nothing is true; everything is permitted"
When we say that "nothing is true", we recognize that the core of our society is fragile, and we must be the shepherds of our own civilization. In reference to "everything is permitted", we understand that as a society we must live with our consequences, whether it be for the better, or worse.
