Hey Azi, couple of quick questions: What's the structure of the guild? I've done some research on their real-life equivalents (which, shame on you by the way. Making someone do research on their off time) and all I can find is a vague reference to a Grandmaster.

Would he take the time to oversee each assassination individually, or would he have a couple more tiers below him?

I don't know what structures the Assassins had, presumably, similar to the Mafia. I did not mean to make you do research, how the guild works was kinda up to you to form however you pleased. Historically, the Assassin's Guild was not an actually guild, but rather a semi-religious sect involving Shia Muslims, especially in Persia and some parts of Syria. The grand master would be an imam, who probably did not oversee assassinations, but served as an influential force, leaving the trained killers to do their things on their own based on the imam's influence. It seems the agents of the hashashin were trained murderers, arsonists, freedom fighters, patriots, and terrorists. Since this is the case, the structure seems to be involved with the underworld, perhaps a paramilitary-like form.

The actual headquarters in the RP can simply be a fortified, militarized faction. Of course, you are free to form it however you'd like regardless of the historic counterparts. I was thinking of getting the Golden Inquisition involved with them in some way. So, for now, just make the guild however you like it to be.

Fun Fact: Al Mualim from the original Assassin's Creed game, was not his real name. his name is Rasheed, "Al Mualim" is Arabic for "The Mentor" Rather the word "Mualim" can be roughly translated to "teacher," or "instructor." Just your friendly neighborhood gay boy! =)

Names with meaning, that's a nice thing to know Emo. I have played Assassin's Creed 1 long ago but not for very long, just maybe ten minutes or so, I couldn't pass the tutorial, it was too hard.

Eh, np Chasers, let's just not worry about anything, and, uh, RP? So ya, for simplicity, let's just keep going and not worry about anything, 'cause that's, like, the best thing to do, I guess.

RWBY reference? I approve.

It's almost...sad. Wait, it's very sad, I clearly have no life.

Names with meaning are fun. But the best ones are puns.

So is Amelia just supposed to be walking for an indefinite amount of time right now? I'll be honest and admit that I don't feel like making up much in terms of scenarios, so I'm not fully sure where exactly to go with this next bit. Done in by the dubious doings of destiny.
