Creature Creator
Fiend Tale
In the Fiend Tale endings, a notable Assassin Bee was created from the spirit of a child who believed she was abandoned by her parents and wanted to see them again. It was only when she arrived at the Farplane that Assassin Bee learns her parents, whom she unknowingly beckoned, died trying to protect her from Sin and she receives closure.
Etymology
The word assassin is often believed to derive from the word hashshashin (Arabic: حشّاشين, ħashshāshīyīn), and shares its etymological roots with hashish (/hæˈʃiːʃ/ or /ˈhæʃiːʃ/; from Arabic: حشيش ḥashīsh).
The meaning of the word Assassins is a secret order of Nizari Ismailis, particularly those of Persia and Syria, that formed in the late 11th century. Mentions of Assassins were preserved within European sources where they are depicted as trained killers, responsible for the systematic elimination of opposing figures.
