First drawing of my (in)famous Illaila.
"Last" is a keyword here :) Yes, she is an assasin but she has specific style of murder.
She is not one of these silent assassins, who kill their prey in dark, without noise.
Illaila is a Shata'lin Sukurfalano - priestess of the Empress (formally) and also a potent psyker. She is one of a few Sukurfalane trained in combat use of her powers. She is an expert of creating psychic illusions (like changing her own appearance) and mind control.
Illaila is quite (qute, hehe... ok, very) sadistic in her nature. She enjoys delivering pain and fear. She usually seduces her victims, lures them to her carefully chosen hideout and then reveals her true self without the mask of illusion. To this time, victims are helpless and at Illaila's mercy, and she is merciless.
Illaila usually keeps her victims alive for three days. During these three days she has a lots of fun finding new ways of delivering pain to her "guests".
However, she is not mindless killer. Each victim is a special target, potential threat to the Empress. These targets are usually generals, nobles, warlords, and sometimes even kings. To get close to her target Illaila must be elegant, stylish and beatuful, and she is really good at it.

Very, very dangerous lady :)

Nice, in my stories, some of the Females practice a style called Seduzir. Where they basically use their... feminine charms to entrance their victims into a false sense of calm, and don't realise that they've been fooled until they stand before the gates of Heaven at the Judgement seat.

Well, Illaila is not the one that likes to keep her identity in secret to the very last moment. When the victim is n her hideout, completely helpless, she drops her illusion and simply is herself (like in this pic). To this point all the guests really know they are in some serious trouble. During her very long career as an assassin she has never failed to kill her target and most of them died in a very horrible, painful ways.

Well what I was saying is that they aren't hiding anything, but their feminine charms are nulling all warnings to danger. I'm not saying she's hiding it until they're dead, the victims of a Seduzir simply don't care because they are entranced. She could be holding a gun in their mouth and they will simply goggle her until she pulls the trigger.

Well, the main target of Illaila and her fellow assassin sisters are humans of the Imubian Empire, quite racist country, to say the least, so hiding her true self is the necessity in her case.

Makes sense, I was simply stating a comparison point. If you look at my original post, I never mentioned her, simply what some females in my stories do in basically the same way.

Hehe, I think she would appreciate that - most likely with a bladed fans but hey - intentions matter ;)

She already has a sidekick - human mercenary (well, no longer mercenary) sniper called Ghost. Illaila gave him simple choice - death followed by her typical three day routine (three days of unimaginable pain to be precise) or becoming a loyal servant and bodyguard.
