==Description==
The Assassin (or Avenger) is the master of dealing quick, lethal blows. Assassins often function as spies, informants, killers for hire, or agents of vengeance. Their training in anatomy, stealth, poison, and the dark arts allows them to carry out missions of death with shocking, terrifying precision. Most [[rogue|Rogues]], [[monk|Monks]], and [[bard|Bards]] who choose this class become examples of the classic assassin skulking in the shadows with a blade carrying certain death. [[Fighter|Fighters]], ex-[[paladin|Paladins]], [[ranger|Rangers]], [[druid|Druids]], and [[barbarian|Barbarians]] operate as warrior-assassins, with as much ability to kill in combat as from the shadows. [[Sorcerer|Sorcerers]], [[wizard|Wizards]], and [[cleric|Clerics]] may be the most terrifying assassins of all, for with their spells they can infiltrate and slay with even greater impunity.

===Death Attack===
At 1st level, the Assassin can make a special sneak attack called a Death Attack. This ability adds to the Rogue's [[Sneak Attack]] ability, adding an extra 1d6 points of damage, if you already have levels of Rogue. This bonus rises to +2d6 at 3rd level, +3d6 at 5th level, +4d6 at 7th level, and +5d6 at 9th level. If used against an opponent not already in combat, a successful death attack forces the victim to make a [[fortitude]] [[Saving throw|Save]] or become paralyzed.

The DC for a target to become paralyzed is equal to; Base 10 + Assassin Level + Intelligence bonus modifier. A level 20 character with 10 Assassin levels and a Intelligence score of 16 for a bonus of +3 will have DC of 10 (Base) + 10 (Levels) + 3 (bonus) for 23. Opponent must be out of combat.

If the character has [[Epic Precision]], death attack will do full damage but will not paralyze the target if it is immune to critical hits.

===Use Poison===
The character is trained in the use of poison and is never at risk of poisoning himself when applying poison to a weapon.

===Poison Resistance===
The assassin's expertise with deadly toxins gives him an unnatural resistance to poisons of all types. The assassin gains a +1 bonus on Fortitude saves against poison at 2nd level. This bonus increases to +2 at 4th level, +3 at 6th level, +4 at 8th level, and +5 at 10th level.

===Uncanny Dodge===
At 2nd level, the Assassin retains their [[dexterity]] bonus to [[Armor|AC]] even when caught [[flat-foot|flat-footed]].

===Improved Uncanny Dodge===
At 5th level, the Assassin can no longer be sneak attacked except by a character with 4 or more total levels in classes that grant sneak attack than the [[Character progression|character levels]] of the Assassin.

===Hide in Plain Sight===
At 8th level, the Assassin may enter stealth mode even while being observed.

===Spells===
At 2nd level, the Assassin gains a spellbook, spells require a base Intelligence score of 10+spell level to be cast and can be picked in that [[Assassin Spells|list]].

***NOTE ON ASSASSIN CASTER LEVELS: Caster level calculation for Assassin is: Assassin levels + (non-Assassin levels/2) = Caster Level. So a level 30 character with 8 or 9 Assassin levels will have CL19 while a level 30 PC with 10 Assassin levels will have CL20. Dragonslayer counts up to 6 of its levels as assassin levels, as per its optional assassin spell progression. For example a 10 rogue 10 assassin 10 Dragonslayer would have CL23.

Thief Acrobat

==Description==
Like any large guild, a thieves’ guild has many specialists within its ranks—pickpockets, burglars, swindlers, and even highway robbers. None of these, however, have the prestige of a Thief Acrobat—the superlative second-storey burglar who is infamous for daring escapades across the city’s rooftops.

The Thief Acrobat excels at getting into and out of places no one else can. If every street-level entrance to the Jewelers’ Guild House is locked and well guarded, the thief-acrobat simply jumps atop the building from the roof of a nearby inn, throws a grappling hook to the highest minaret, runs up the attached rope to a shuttered window, and quickly picks the lock. Should her escape go awry once she has the goods, her gymnastic combat style keeps her out of harm’s way.

Most Thief Acrobats began as rogues and worked their way up through a guild’s ranks, but even Rangers, Barbarians, and even Illusionists (who wind up working for various regional thieves' guilds) are known to pursue the acrobatic arts from time to time.
