Traits

Assassinate. During its first turn, the assassin has advantage on attack rolls against any creature that hasn't taken a turn. Any hit the assassin scores against a surprised creature is a critical hit.

Evasion. If the assassin is subjected to an effect that allows it to make a Dexterity saving throw to take only half damage, the assassin instead takes no damage if it succeeds on the saving throw, and only half damage if it fails.

Sneak Attack. Once per turn, the assassin deals an extra 14 (4d6) damage when it hits a target with a weapon attack and has advantage on the attack roll, or when the target is within 5 feet of an ally of the assassin that isn't incapacitated and the assassin doesn't have disadvantage on the attack roll.

Actions

Multiattack. The assassin makes two shortsword attacks or one pistol and one dagger attack.

Shortsword. Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 6 (1d6 + 3) piercing damage.

Palm Pistol. Ranged Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, range 40/160 ft., one target. Hit: 8 (1d8 + 3) piercing damage.

Dagger. Melee or ranged Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 5 ft./range 20 ft./60 ft., one target. Hit: 4 (1d4 + 3) piercing damage. 

Wyvern Poison. Only applicable if weapon is coated. The target must make a DC 15 Constitution saving throw, taking 24 (7d6) poison damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

Philter of Love. The assasin attempts to slip a philter of love potion in your drink, this is a sleight of hand check vs your passive perception. The next time you see a creature within 10 minutes after drinking this philter, you become charmed by that creature for 1 hour. If the creature is of a species and gender you are normally attracted to, you regard it as your true love while you are charmed. This potion's rose-hued, effervescent liquid contains one easy-to-miss bubble shaped like a heart.

Bonus Actions

Coat Weapon. The assasin coats a weapon of its choice in Wyvern Poison.

Description

Trained in the use of poison, assassins are remorseless killers who work for nobles, guildmasters, sovereigns, and anyone else who can afford them.
