Ankou Assassin
A death-omen given shadow and murderous purpose, splitting into duplicate selves to mask exactly which one delivers the killing blow.
An ankou is a shadow given murderous purpose, a death-omen that hunts the living from the spaces between lamplight. Assassins among their kind stalk marked prey across realms, splitting into a host of shadowy doubles before the killing blow falls.
