Juyou

Kazurei is as enigmatic as she is feared. Cloaked in darkness so deep it seems to absorb the light around her, she moves with an uncanny silence that betrays her deadly skill. She is a paradox: a killer with a moral code, a shadow with a creed. Her unerring judgment in choosing her targets has earned her a begrudging respect, even among those who would never dare to invoke her name.

Kazurei was once a mortal assassin renowned for her unparalleled skill and unbreakable ethical code. Her deeds and choices during her mortal life caught the attention of the existing gods, who found her unique skills worthy of ascension. Her devotion to her own code was so pure that it transcended mortality, making her the goddess of assassins.

Uniquely, this goddess is rumored to travel between honorable thieves guilds as a traveler and even taking up odd jobs as part of her holy war. What misfortune to have literal diety hunting you.

A clandestine group of assassins, spies, and some justice seekers who uphold a code of conduct even in their lethal professions follow her teachings closely. They meet in hidden temples or use coded messages to share the goddess's teachings.
