Category:Fictional assassins

Pages in this category should be moved to subcategories where applicable. This category may require frequent maintenance to avoid becoming too large. It should directly contain very few, if any, pages and should mainly contain subcategories.

This category is for fictional characters who are assassins or have committed at least one assassination of a targeted individual (usually a prominently public figure), killing them through a stealthy and/or surprise attack.

Assassins may be motivated to murder their victim(s) for the sake of executing specific sociopolitical or ideological goals, to support their own faction's objectives during a war or other violent conflict, receiving monetary payment from a client who hired them (professional assassins motivated by profit are always contract killers), or simply to settle some sort of personally vengeful vendetta against the victim.
