TACTICS

Before Combat He coats his daggers with poison and drinks his potion of shield of faith before combat. He conceals the daggers in his sleeves and quietly observes a PC for at least 3 rounds if possible.

During Combat When the ghouls attack, he tries to flank his chosen target with one of the ghouls in order to make a death attack. He then continues to flank with the ghouls and make additional sneak attacks.

Morale If reduced to fewer than 15 hit points, he flees, attempting to lose pursuers in the alleyways or in the desolate moors outside town.
