Features

Won’t See It Coming - Passive

Armor is half as effective against attacks made while Master Assassin is Hidden. “Attacking from stealth, their attack find the gaps in your armor.”

Strike as One - Action

Mark a Stress to activate a number of Assassins equal to the Master Assassin’s unmarked Stress. “Their leader whistles, and a group of assassins act as one with practiced grace.”

The Subtle Blade - Reaction

When Master Assassin successfully makes a Serrated Dagger attack against a character that is Vulnerable, spend a Fear to deal 2 Hit Points instead of rolling. “Their eyes go black as the attack comes in, and the blade appears in your side, stabbing deep and ignoring your armor.”
