Description
The Unseelie Fey Assassin is the height of expertise of the Winter's Court army. They are experts in stalking their target, their forms blending unnaturally with the frost-covered landscape. Clad in jagged, padded, and segmented blackened armor adorned with icicle-like spikes and leather, their helmets obscure their faces, save for faintly glowing, frost-blue eyes. Some of the only flesh visible is the long, tapering pale Fey Elven ears that just out to the sides of the helm.
Their dark-wrought weaponry seems to radiate cold mist that leaves a faint trail of frost wherever it touches. Their crossbows are tipped with jagged, icicle-tipped bolts that shimmer ominously in the dim light, poised to strike with deadly precision.
Trained in the use of poison, assassins are remorseless killers who work for the Unseelie Fey Court of Winter.
