The Widowmakers

History

 * The pages of Cosanastre's history are far from clean, beneath the inkblots and conveniently smudged sentences is the tale of the Widowmaker. At the height of Cosanastre's rule the Widowmaker operated as the personal assassin of King Argast's Grandfather and took many tasks for Cosanastre's Nobles that they would not leave to the Factions (due to the constant fighting between the clans.) The Widowmakers share their name with his figure of Cosanastre's history who was reportedly hanged by King Argast's Father at the behest of his Marshal. Many believe, however, that The Widowmaker shared ties with many other clans--despite the fact that his preferred method of operation practically screamed Daius, and as such may have found a way to cheat death. Many believe that the Widowmakers' enigmatic leader, The Old Man, is the Widowmaker of legend, but little to no proof exists to substantiate such a claim.

Methods
What is known, however, is that the Widowmakers are up to almost any task of any sort. While specializing in subterfuge and assassination, they have been known to procure warriors for protective custody and enchanted items, how such is possible is rarely questioned. Results are results. It is well known to the seedier sort in Cosanastre that a Widowmaker is the worst type of assassin, one without scruples. Whether this is fact or merely fiction promoted by the Clan for reputation is unknown.

Affiliation
The Widowmaker's primary skillset can be traced back to the Daius faction and it seems that there allegiance lies there too, but as is the way with many things appearances can be deceiving.

Known Operatives
The true identity of any Widowmaker is unknown, as they all operate by call signs and typically keep their faces hidden via hoods, masks and many other methods of disguise.
