Harlequin
- "Behind the gaudy costume and twisted smile lies the soul of a merciless assassin. You call yourself the Harlequin. Your victims will call you a walking nightmare."

Unique Moves
The Killing Joke
First the Harlequin stabs the back of the victims neck, then flips over their back and stabs the victim in the heart, then to the right of the chest cavity, leaving them paralyzed and internally bleeding to death.
Sacrificial Strikes
From behind the Harlequin takes his 2 needle twin blades and impale them into his targets neck causing them to go limp and pulls his daggers out of the target's neck, after which they fall to the ground.
