Channel: The Assassins 



Description
A tale of four Assassins as they build their careers in the World of Greyhawk (a WOTC fantasy setting for the Dungeons and Dragons role-playing game). A saga where, curiously, the lead characters are devoid of morals and keen to excel in their fell arts in any way they can. The story is based directly on Dungeons and Dragons role-playing sessions and the writing gets steadily better as the writers learn their craft.
