Alright, well, I was in the storybook discussion forum, and I saw a thread titled "Assassins" or something. I didn't look at the plot or anything, but I immediately wanted to make a storybook about assassins. So if this has been done, feel free to lock this or something. :]

Your finger feels the trigger. You close one eye and squint through the lens. The window is open, and your target groans as he rubs his neck, shifting comfortably as he flips through the pages in his book. He reaches for the beverage beside him, and you grin. Let's have some fun.
You pull the trigger. The bullet flies through the window, and pierces the foggy glass between two of his fingers. The cup explodes, and glass flies in all directions. Your target screams, and leaps from his chair, watching shards dig into his skin, exposing the blood you've been wanting to see. You move your gun the slightest bit, and watch your target attempt to leave the room in panic. His hand grasps the door knob as he gasps, and collapses. Blood spills from his neck as you lower your weapon, and you pick up your binoculars. No twitching. No breathing. He's done. Slipping off the rooftop, you leave.
And you do the same thing tomorrow.
This is the life you guys lead.
Have an imagination.

Intense, isn't it?
Now, I'm not sure if the mods will allow any gore, so I'm rating this R.
It's literature, isn't it?
Nobody under 16, please. I don't want any prodigy assassins running around this storybook.
If anybody is going to be any sort of boss, or any kind of guy who needs an assassin, it'll be a character everybody can control.
You are an assassin.
And that is that.
You are all independent, unless the plot manages to twist so it's otherwise.
Nobody knows each other as of now.
You can form secret friendships during the story, but no "Hey, I remember you. Class of 1999, right?"
You can be any nationality.
You can be in any country.
Say, you find somebody who knows who assassinated their brother. And it's some other person in the storybook.
They send you to assassinate them.
Oh, and you can't kill each other. You can try, but you can't, unless you ask permission from that person.
You can only have one character.
And no supernatural powers or traits, please.
You guys are creative, you can figure out how you'll run into one another.

Plot:

Each Assassin has been contacted by two associations, each asking for them to murder an important employee belonging to each one. Each assassin is assigned a different employee. Each assassin is offered a large sum of money. You either choose to take the job and choose, or you choose to ignore it. But if you ignore it and the assigned person is not murdered within a 90 day period, they know who you are. And they know where to find you.
Or you can betray each, and murder both who are assigned to you, and collect the each bounty. Consider the consequences, and consider what you'll gain.
Will people have to be removed for your own safety? Your family's safety?

Here's the guideline for your profiles:

Name: Caleb

Age: 23

Gender: Male

Nationality: Irish

Years of experience: 8

People you've killed: 20 very high profile targets, about a hundred minor ones, and about two hundred from 'collateral damage'. Not as many as some assassins, but Caleb tries to minimise the extra damage he causes. He doesn't perceive it to be worth killing people he's not getting paid for.

Addictions: Smoking, caffeine.

Your "normal" job: Barista

Method of choice: Caleb prefers to get nice and close to his targets. He's an expert at infiltration, and can fight outstandingly well with pistols or knives. He's also just as good as getting out as he is at getting in.

Appearance: http://cutthroat-lola.deviantart.com/ar ... a-54781148 His eyes are a very pale blue.

Who do you live with? No one, but his two brothers and his sister all live on the same street in Dublin.

Thinking of quitting? No

What country do you live in? Ireland.

How much do you charge? Depends on the client, but he rarely takes on 'small fish', preferring the high-paying jobs. He will, however, take on fairly small kills from the IRA.
He had decided to live forever or die in the attempt. - Yossarian, Catch-22

Name: Griffin
Age: 19
Gender: male
Nationality: American
Years of experience: 15 counting training 5 years on his own
People you've killed: doesn't bother counting
Addictions: stealing, the finer things in life, danger (an adrenaline junkie)
Your "normal" job: College student
Method of choice: close range, kills with swords when he can
Appearance: http://www.starman-imaging.com/jan04/mtntxsbe036r.jpg

Who do you live with? on his own, family lives in california
Thinking of quitting? No, its a way of life to him
What country do you live in? Chicago, America
How much do you charge? depends on the client, but he usually goes for high risk jobs, high risk/high pay.

Anything else you want to add: The descendent of a long line of assasins, Griffin was trained extensively, everything from martial arts and weapons training, to tactics and strategy. He was even trained to withstand prolonged torture.

An only child, he is expected to take over the family bussiness, he has several older cousins who are very unfond of him.

Griffin has an eidetic, or photographic, memory. He remembers everything he has seen, heard, touched, etc... almost from the moment he was born. He also has near perfect muscle memory, once he learns how to do something its instinctual.

Basically Griffin is the result of generations of breeding, the perfect killer. Or so his parents hope.
DANCE- Like no-one is watching
LOVE- Like you've never been hurt
SING- Like no-one is listening
LIVE- Like it's heaven on earth.

Name: Rayna Smith

Age: 22

Gender: Female

Nationality: American

Years of experience: She started training 10 years ago so I guess 10 years?

People you've killed: She can't remember. She drinks a lot to forget.

Addictions: Drinking and tattoos
Your "normal" job: Waitress and volunteers at the hospital because, believe it or not, she wants to help people.

Method of choice: quick and precise. She is known for her clean, easy kills.

Appearance: http://www.hji.co.uk/hjimages/images/qh ... ibrant.jpg

Who do you live with? No one

Thinking of quitting? All the time

What country do you live in? America but goes to Europe (Poland) to visit her sister who was put in an asylum.

How much do you charge? She considers her life as one that dosen't really matter so she dosen't charge much for any jobs. Even the highly dangerous. That's what makes her so popular.

Anything else you want to add: After she kills she tends to go to the bar and drink to forget. She hates taking a life, but when her parents died and her sister (when she was 10) was locked away this was what pulled her through and this is all she's ever known.

Name: Roland Alucard Matthis

Age: 23

Gender: Male

Nationality: English

Years of experience: 12

People you've killed: lost count

Addictions: Hot Chocolate, playing piano while he waits.

Your "normal" job: Musician

Method of choice: Close, but not too personal. He uses either an assault rifle, or a pistol.

Appearance: http://bcstroud.deviantart.com/art/Dani ... -114526534. He is very heavily muscled. Not much taller than average height, but he makes up for it in muscle. His eyes are a dark blue and his hair is dirty blond.

Who do you live with? no one

Thinking of quitting? no

What country do you live in? England

How much do you charge? No set price

Anything else you want to add: He was 11 when a hit was ordered on his family. Him and his brother escaped with their lives, and using their families large fortune they renovated an old apartment building and he trained. He has been searching for the people who killed his family. His brother creates the plans and tells him what to do. They communicate during the plan, so its as if he has a second pair of eyes. Has a near perfect memory. Plays guitar, and piano. He has trained himself to kill in every way possible and is very, very good.
Words - so innocent and powerless as they are, as standing in a dictionary, how potent for good and evil they become in the hands of one who knows how to combine them. ~Nathaniel Hawthorne

Wii would like to play

Name: Bex (not her real name)
Age: 23
Gender: Female
Nationality: American
Years of experience: 7

People you've killed: Believe it or not, not many...at all. Her customers grow annoyed because Bex has a knack for stunning the target, taking her employers money, and fleeing the scene before they find out she never killed anyone. Of course on a few occasions she has gone through with actually taking out the target, but she might as well have some fun, right?

Addictions: Sleeping pills and fear. (her fear, basically the adrenaline rush)

Your "normal" job: Investigator. When Bex isn't doing assassination assignments she's off doing other missions.

Method of choice: It depends on her mood that day. If she's up for a challenge she just may choose hand-to-hand combat, on days she's feeling impatient she usually snipes, and then there are her mischievous moments when all she feels the need to do is taser or use sleeping gas, stunning the victim.

Appearance: http://peachjuice.deviantart.com/art/fierce-106405103
Who do you live with? no one.
Thinking of quitting? Not really.
What country do you live in? America but is Currently in Hong Kong, China trying unsuccessfully to take out the same target she's been pursuing for the last two years.

How much do you charge? Too Much...haha seriously.

Anything else you want to add: She loves the rain and .

Name: Sophia

Age: 20

Gender: Female

Nationality: English

Years of experience: 6

People you've killed: Over 100, though she doesn’t really count them.

Addictions: She’s a smoker, though is trying to quit, and piercings.

Your "normal" job: She has a part time job at a little café called ‘Fish and Chips’, and is studying Photography art and English literature at University.

Method of choice: Her methods vary, though she prefers to be up close and personal to her victims, preferring to use a blade or a pistol, and some times she might use her bare hands, but only if she has somehow been prevented from using her weapons.

Appearance: http://lorelix04.deviantart.com/art/The ... N-92876703 Aswell as what is shown on this picture, she has emerald green eyes, and her left eyebrow is pierced, the bridge of her nose both ears, though all down her ear is pierced at her right ear. Both of her collar bones are pierced and so is her belly button.

Who do you live with? She lives with her Labrador in a luxury flat in London, close to her university.

Thinking of quitting? No.

What country do you live in? England.

How much do you charge? A lot, though there is no set price, she usually takes the most amount of money that she is offered.

Anything else you want to add: She grew up in a rich family, her father also being an assassin. He had trained her in everything from armed combat to bare hand fighting, until she turned fourteen and somebody had decided to have their revenge of the many murders her father had committed, and killed him, her mother and three year old sister. So now Sophia is hell-bent on finding and killing the murderers of her family.

Sophia can be quite a sadistic woman, at times she has a kick out of killing people, and sometimes even enjoys the feel of pulsing veins at somebody’s neck beneath her hands, and feeling how the victims heart beat would shudder before completely stopping.
She enjoys watching as her victims suffer whilst she is killing them, and rarely makes it quick and painless, unless she is close to getting caught, which had only ever happened once.

She doesn’t believe in love, and she absolutely adores traveling.
