Assassin

I was planning to make Assassin (or a variant) a reasonable prestige class for The Pinch area. Is there a non-spoiler or World reason why it's listed as no-known-availability? -Mattie

Because people that teach other people to be assassins do not advertise their existence. Also, that page broadly refers to "availability to players" and generally player characters are not Evil. I assure you, there are plenty of assassin class'd NPCs out there. -gm

Cool. Yeah, there's an organization I plan here that exclusively uses Lawful Evil, Lawful Neutral, and True Neutral in this role. I'd love to work on a 5-step variant of this class with your help. If you don't already have ideas around this, I'll put something up and we can discuss it for balance. Or if we run out of time, I'll go with the normal 10-lvl version since that exists for some of the other SRD ones, but I do like your idea of having the 5-level prestiges. -Mattie
