About this model
A hooded assassin in dark layered leathers and a tattered cloak, holding a curved dagger low. The face is masked and the clothing looks built for silence. The figure stands about 6.5 ft tall on a footprint near 4 by 3.5 ft, one square.
Use it for a party rogue, a guild killer or a shadowy enforcer. It works on rooftops, in alleyways and in candlelit palace corridors. Place it behind columns, curtains and crates where it can strike from hiding, and track its initiative and conditions on the token.
Ideas for the table
- A shadowblade stalks the party through a crowded festival, and they only notice when a guard falls.
- The guild sends an assassin to warn the party rather than kill them, which is somehow worse.
- In a palace corridor, the killer hides behind a tapestry while the party escorts the queen past.
