Shinobi

Shinobi are a specialized class of Samurai, mercenaries who operate with stealth and efficiency while having no qualms of utilizing underhanded techniques to take down their enemies. They will attack opportunistically, fighting ruthlessly with their arsenal in order to finish their job. A shinobi is going to scout, survey, and assassinate while doing their best to make sure they themselves are not compromised.
