As such, the predominant alignment for assassin – even those in a king's or a priest's employ – will be evil. However, IMC I've opened up to allow neutral assassins on the grounds of having those who must be convinced of the need of their talents, i.e. the king must somehow show him that the little duke must be assassinated, else a war will likely break out, or somesuch. But good? The very act of killing silently (and not only sneaking, but killing, coup-de-gracing and death-attacking at sleeping targets, slipping lethal poison into wine etc.) make the assassin non-good.</blockquote>
