Profile
Origin
The Assassins were an order in Shia Islam that existed from 1090-1275 AD and were responsible for hundreds of deaths. The modern concept of an assassin comes from these historical Assassins, including their usage of daggers and poisons, as well as their targets, many of which were high-profile religious or political figures.
In Shin Megami Tensei, Assassin is an original creation, being a member of the Ring of Gaea.

Trivia
- There is leftover unused data for Assassin as a demon in Shin Megami Tensei: Nine. He is of the Gaean race and is level 50. However, evidence suggests that Gaean and Messian demons were cut earlier than the other cut demons, as they have less data defined.
