“ | "Dad? Dad, I'm a- Ye- Not a "crazed gunman", dad, I'm an assassin! ...Well, the difference bein' one is a job and the other's a mental sickness!" | „ |
~ The Sniper explaining to his adopted father his job. |
While this is usually a villainous deed, there are some morally ambiguous heroes who have employed assassination to kill particularly corrupt and/or wicked individuals. Nevertheless, such actions tend to place a character firmly in Anti-Hero territory.
Note: Purely Good heroes never count as this as those types of heroes are not considered sympathetic, merciful and incorruptible. Assassins kill another person that is usually done in either a discreet or particularly audacious manner, and have corrupting qualities.
