Paizo Iconics - Zadim

The Slayer class is a kind of hybrid of the rogue and the ranger, and in practice, plays out a bit like a ranged attack focused assassin. Zadim is the iconic slayer, and he's literally a Middle Eastern religious cult assassin, which is perhaps not the most interesting use of the class, honestly. 

I like the idea of the class immensely, but I'm very much a confirmed fan of the idea of alt.rangers, alt.rogues, and other alt.fighter in general that lean towards assassin or swashbuckler. I think the Freeport class (for Pathfinder) called Freebooter is probably my favorite, but the Slayer is a good one.

Of course, I don't particularly love Zadim himself. I get it; going for the original hashassin cult vibe, but I'd never create one like that.

Still, it's hard to complain too much. The class is too good.

Sadly, or not because I have no interest in playing it, but the Slayer was not ported to 2e, although Zadim came on board as the iconc Avenger or something like that. Whatever, 2e.
