Enforcer - Roguish Archetype
Trained, lethal, and a mercenary whose service is for hire. Enforcers don't work for free. They are hired for dirty deeds. These contract killers do not follow the law, and are often hired by mobsters or even political dignitaries when their opposition needs disposal.
Whether its a falsifying an incriminating letter, crafting writ of passage, guarding a caravan, or a collecting a dead man's head, the hitman has the tools for the job and skills needed to get the it done. They are not assassins, as they prefer a more 'personal' touch.
