Assassin City

[OnlytheStrong]

Okay, TRD brought up a good point lol. I need to be ECL 6 to be an assassin. Not really a problem since I'm sure I will level eventually. I am more concerned with the "Has to kill someone for no other reason than to join the assassins" part. Is it like the assassins guild? Does this world have an assassins' guild? lol

What would we use to gather information (such as location, habits, etc.) on our marks?

No, no assassin guild. So no killing just to join. I think I better look at that PrC and adjust it.

Actually, do you have any instant messenger type programs we could use or Steam? I'd rather not clog up this thread too much.

Unfortunatily no. I'm posting from work and I'm surprised I even have internet connection on this 'puter . We could just start a DM thread for this though .

One idea I had is that maybe we can start at ECL 5, then our first mission will be for entry into an assassin's guild.

That way it gives us all a good starting point, gives a nice story reason for Only's first level of Assassin and the guild will give us a great starting point for other missions/adventures.

Ok, so one last thing. The Death attack is somewhat redundant with my house rule so it's only a paralyze attack.

Good idea, done.

Deal lol. I think TRD and I have worked out a few ideas. We aren't quite sure about how to go about gathering the intelligence needed on our targets. I assume Knowledge (local) would help with some of it. What else would we use? I do plan on using the good ol' fashion follow people around all day thing.

Well, there is this rather stupid skill called "Gather Information." Personally I think it's kind of stupid since all it really seems to be for is avoiding role playing. In any case, you're going to want to make contacts that can get you info. Or you could ingratiate yourself with the target or a member of their family.... An unhappy spouse.... Whatever.

Yeah, I never really like the Gather Information skill and actually didn't plan on using it. I think a huge part of this game is figuring out how and when to strike, and knowing when not to. What would Knowledge (local) be used for? The contacts?

And probably knowing where are good places to hide and where the dark alleys lie?
