Let's start things off with a question for you: If you could be any Assassiny-type character, from any genre, in any type of media (book/tv/movie/comic) - who would you be, and Why? (pictures encouraged!) Would you be like Jackie Chan? Why? Would you be like Yoruichi? Why? Would you be like Mindy McCready? Why? Remember as you think of your answer, "Assassin" is a big concept!

sisustrong Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 Hello all! Wonderful Monday to start a new challenge, eh? Assassin-hopeful here. You can find a link to my current challenge and a bunch of other awesome stuff in my signature. If I could be any type of assassin... I'm tempted to say Ezio from ACII, but I feel like there are other characters I'm just not remembering right now. I'll take a rain check on that one.

vikinginyogapants Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 *waves* Another future assassin, I hope. I'm probably going to bounce around between guilds for challenges, but my primary focus seems to be with the assassins for now. Also drawing a blank on types of assassins I'd like to be besides Ezio and co. and Black Widow. Basically, they have a variety of skills that require a balance of strength, endurance, agility, flexibility, and using their environment to their advantage, which is what I'm going for! 2 Quote Level 2 Elf AssassinDauntless | Slytherin | Scorpio | INTJ Current Challenge: 2 (Assassins)Past Challenges: 1 (Recruit) Link to post
Young_Ras87 Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 Hello my fellow future Assassins, I wish you all good luck on your challenges, and I hope we all finish. If I had to pick a assassin I would want to be it would have to be : The Fourth Hokage: Minato Namikaze Why: Because he is a person that never takes anything to seriously, but knows when to get serious, when the occasion calls for it. I also love his inventive mind and that he excels in every area, you can excel in, in terms of being a ninja. 1 Quote Young_Ras87Human | Recruit | Magnificent Bastard [ Level: 0 | Str: 0 | Dex: 0 | Sta: 0 | Con: 0 | Wis: 0 | Cha: 0 ]Current Challenge Link to post

tigertubagirl Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 Hello hello! If I could be any Assassin, I think it would be Jack Reacher (the book character -- please vanquish any thought of tiny Tom Cruise from your minds). I love him because he marches to the beat of his own drummer, doesn't let life rattle him, and is awesomely creative and calculating in using all available resources to get things done. 1 Quote Current Challenge: tigertubagirl's quest to vanquish the inches Link to post
Nessajel Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 I'd probably go for Vash the Stampede from Trigun.Massive, a bit too much destructive, with an awesome dark backstory all covered in humor and deceptions =D.http://choualbox.com/Img/136884326210.jpg Quote Level 0 Yeti AssassinSTR 0DEX 0STA 0CON 0WIS 0CHA 0 Ongoing 6-Week Challenge Link to post

littlewolf1275 Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 Hi! I was recommended here by another one of the guild members! If I could be any assassin I'd be Edward Kenway from Assassin's Creed Black Flag, because if I'm gonna be an assassin, I'm gonna be a pirate assassin!

SagerRager Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Awesome firefly reference, one of the reasons I love the NF community. I'm excited to join the assassins when this challenge is over! If I could be an assassin from any genre is a tough question to answer but I've always thought of Knuckles as an assassin After all how else can you explain his awesome abilities to glide and climb walls, definitely an assassin hired by sonic and co to take on Dr. Eggman Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Sager Rager level:1 Audentes Fortuna Iuvat Were-Bear | Rebel | Adventure Time Character Battle Log Link to post
annyshay Posted July 30, 2015 Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 because if I'm gonna be an assassin, I'm gonna be a pirate assassin! You make a compelling argument... Looooove all the inspiration. Welcome! 1 Quote Love as thou wilt. Link to post
PeterParker Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 Hey everybody... another future assassin here! Hope all is well you your challenges. As for my inspiring assassin I'd have to say Jason Bourne, from the movies. Don't get me wrong I love the books, and have read most of them, but Matt freakin' Damon! Plus the awesome parkour chase scenes are freaking awesome! Lovin' this site btw!

kokuryuu Posted August 1, 2015 Report Share Posted August 1, 2015 Hey guys and gals. Future Assassin here. There's so many assassins to chose as an inspiration choosing one is not enough. The first assassin coming to mind is Ezio (almost cried when his story ended in revelations but shhh) his growth from hot blooded teen to a man with the right priorities is definitely something to aspire to. The second one that comes to mind is Jason Bourne with his allroundness. Last but not least Chun Woo Han from The Breaker for being a badass at the pinnacle of physical condition.Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk 1 Quote My current 6 week challenge: http://rebellion.nerdfitness.com/index.php?/topic/69454-challenge-11/#entry1584128 Bodyfat down to 12%%Bodyfat down to 12%% Link to post

Razzy Posted August 4, 2015 Report Share Posted August 4, 2015 Future assassin here, and I got a quick answer to your question! What assassin would I want to be? *looks significantly at avatar* The one and only, most badass assassin in the galaxy, of course! Thane Krios! Why? There are several reasons I admire this dude. To whit: Super stealthy. I love being stealthy. (I always end up playing a stealthy rogue in D&D. Because I'm the best at it.) Super sniper. I love sniping. (Reach out and touch somebody. If more media feature snipers, half the plots wouldn't work. They are super broken.) Deeply intelligent and knows his philosophy (And hey, I only got a 3.98GPA, and I debate about Aristotle, we share a lot in common.) Master in hand-to-hand Always wins a staring contest Attack of choice: Neck Snap. Cold blooded, clean, methodical and thorough. (If you get this quote, I give you ALL the cookies.) Well spoken. He can make killing you seem pretty reasonable. Absolute control of himself The definition of "Be polite, be professional, but have a plan to kill everybody you meet." Can toss people about with the POWER OF HIS MINDI would love to be a total badass living weapon. Total control of my body is my dream come true. Don't speak unless you have something to say, be a representative of your nation (like the Assassins) and be nigh-uncatchable is pretty much everything I desire. And the ability to win all the staring contests is also great, but I'll have to practice on that the hard way. I tried to toss a guinea pig with my mind, but then it peed in my lap, so I won't be doing that anymore. Basically, it's all a really nifty pipe dream, but it's a goal to shoot for. Other than Thane, I'd have to choose HK-47, the assassin robot from Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. Because body issues are for meatbags. 3 Quote Battle LogChallenge LogI made a mistake.

tundralily Posted August 5, 2015 Report Share Posted August 5, 2015 Hello to you newbie assassins! Welcome to the rebellion!! I'm an Assassin hanging out with the Druids for this challenge, but will be back soooon! Its week two time! Some of the shiny has probably worn off. So assassins, report! How was your first week? Any successes or challenges so far? I'll start! My challenge kinda got off to a rough start with a sporadic camping trip in the middle of my week, but I'm liking most of my goals so far! Some need some tweaking, but I love doing yoga on my mat every morning Quote Level: 8 Race: Wood Elf Class: Ranger at Heart - Training with the Adventurers Current Adventure: A New HopePast Challenges: 1st ✲ 2nd ✲ 3rd ✲ 4th ✲ 5th ✲ 6th ✲ 7th ✲ 8th ✲ 9th“I am and always will be the optimist.
