ok so i fell in love with the visuals involved with the Stealth on Stealth character from the "lets make the rogue fun" thread. so i decided to add him into my random assassin encounter chart... but then i thought about hoe devastating this character would be in a fight, even against a group of 5 level 6-8 players.

this character is a smart assassin who will target based on player appearance. high AC (medium and heavy armor)targets will be left for last while he picks off the softer looking targets with massive debuffs (enforcer+cruel+stunning fist (dc 18) which nets a -4 to saves making the dc 22) then restealths burns off kipool points to max his attacks per round, keeping the target in a state of stunned and or flat footed while he obliterates them. he starts fully buffed.
now my players are used to challenging NPC's so they are used to character death and don't throw tantrums when they die. but i also dont like to tpk them with challenges that they have no chance against.
keep in mind that stealth can be used in conjunction with any form of physical movement with this character since he has both hellcat stealth and hide in plain sight.
