View source for Marksman (3.5e Class)

====Marksmen in the Game====

A professional marksman may be hired by royalty to assassinate other members of a rival party.  It may be the PCs job to stop the sniper, and root out where they are hiding before it is too late.  Alternatively they might be assigned to be the assassin, and must escape the attentions of the heavily armed guards.

'''Adaptation:''' As not all campaigns have crossbows and firearms, magic devices mimicking firearms assume the role of firearms.

'''Sample Encounter:''' An NPC working for the side of goods may be a professional monster hunter.  He seeks various fell beasts, and slays them to make the surroundings safer.  A particular monster he hunts cannot be taken down by one man, and he hires the adventurers to help him slay the monster.
On the other side of the coin, the adventurers may have gotten themselves in a great deal of trouble, and earned the ire of those in higher positions.  Assassin snipers have been dispatched to eliminate the party, or an important ally to the party, and they must survive the onslaught and take out the snipers.  It can make a good lead in to a political drama.
