Description So if you've read ~Staredcraft 's Odd Trio stories, you know about a villainess called Assassina. Well who is she, you ask? She is the nega-Ninjetta. A murderous parasitic being who has possessed Savannah, a tertiary charachter from All Grown Up (better known as Angelica's occasional nemesis.)

Savannah, however is just the host. Assassina is really our little tribute to Spider-Man's Venom. However, instead of being an alien symbiote, Assassina is a being pulled from Islamic lore, called a Djinn. (Pronounced like "Gin"---If you're interested, Wikipedia has an article on them, so you can get caught up to speed on her concept.) In fact, you may know what a Djinn is and not even know it--it is where the word "Genie" comes from.

Djinns live just like us, and on the same planet as we do, however it is said that they live in a seperate dimension, and that they can jump back and forth (We can't). THey are said to appear as black Vaporous beings--that is if they appear to us at all. They mostly leave us alone, however you do get the occasional impish (Or in Sassy's case, downright evil) one that will manipulate a human's thoughts or actions, or may even possess them, such as Sassy has. Djinns are also master shapeshifters, which would explain the getup (Assassina herself is really the costume.)

Assassina has near limitless power (As does, Kimi, but the prevailant theory is that even Kimi doesn't know just how powerful she is), and can do anything from shapeshift, stretch, enlarge parts of her (Savannah's) body, and even completely vaporize to become darkness itself. She has no need to carry any weapons, because she can simply produce them from her hand at merely a thought. Just as Venom does, she also produces long, wispy tendrils that can grab a victim, or even possess their thoughts from afar. But probably her spookiest quality is that she can conjure up deep, dark, black flames that are heatless and smokeless, as shown (Crappily photomanipulated) here.
Sassy isn't without her weaknesses though: Bright lights, loud or high pitched noises, and extreme temperatures are enough to send the djinn into a frenzy, and in some cases can even weaken her.

And just as Venom had once bonded with Peter Parker, Assassina's first victim was Kimi. As can be expected, Kimi can't sense her presence, or an impending attack from her, unless sighted and recognized, but by then however, it's too late.


Now I can't take much credit for Assassina (Aside from her origin). Assassina was created by ~Staredcraft and the costume itself was designed by *NewEraOutlaw , just as Ninjetta's costume had been in . In fact, the design for Assassina's costume was an attempt at designing Ninjetta's costume, except that Ryan forgot that Ninjetta's costume was white.

Hmmmm...

At the very least, you and Staredcraft made her more separate from Venom than she was originally.

Good picture. I guess I'll FAVE it.

well, her personality is a lot different, too. she's (well...they're) more cunning, cold and calculating than venom, and you still get Savannah's elitist I'm-better-than-you attitude shining through. (or is that Sassy's? one can never really tell)

Actually, I've been thinking of an origin story for them (seeing as how Spidey 3 is around the corner). Of course, it's just a personal thing.

Maybe I'll write and post it if Staredcraft will let me.

I bet you like it how we've turned an accidental-mistake you made with a request into a real character? So technically you drew Kimi when she's with the Dijn on her LOL
