Default Shiro Tagachi - assassin or warrior?

When I saw the Factions Cinematic i was like "oh awsome assassins own!". But it Shiro an assassins or a warrior:

Is he an Assassin? - He wields 2 blades, His eyes glowed assassins colours at the begining, when he dies hes shrouded in assassin colours (red/purply/orange).

Is he a warrior? - he's wielding SWORDS not daggers, he's pretty big (not that has much to do with it but i couldnt think of anything else)

I would prefer his to be an assassin jst to make factions seem cooler.

Wat do u think?

He, and all of the people who fought him excluding Visu, were Warriors. Visu was an assassin, and the four dead Ritualists were... well Ritualists.

Hes a warrior. He uses two large swords, and just uses the skill Hundred Blades in the cinematic to rip everyone up. He moves with more force than finesse, and an assassin devastatingly outstripped him.

He also has armor...

I agree with Avarre - definitely a warrior. Just because he was smart enough to strike down the emperor while he was busy praying doesn't mean he has the stealth of an assassin. The dual sword action when the guards flooded in was definitely warrior-like.

Since most humans are descended from a certain point, perhaps they just happened to be an example of parallel evolution. It stands to reason that if someone was born in Tyria with 100b, likewise in Cantha.

No he isn't an assassins, he isn't a warrior either, he is a mad hairdresser who murdered the Emperor for wearing a hood thus covering the masterful hair-do he fixed the Emperor with. That day he murdered the Emperor, Shiro had a reaaaaaaaal bad hair day, as you can see from the video.

LMFAO I laughed when I read that, nice.

Btw, he's W/A.

Nevin, the Lich was Necromancer/Queer/SplitPersonalitymancer.

Hundred Blades...Heh, and I thought I was halucinating. HE made me watch the cinematic again just to make sure it wasn't.

He's not. When the emperor dies, see all that blue light he draws in? Communing with the dead is either Necro or Ritualist, and bright blue is Ritualist color.

None of his attacks are assassin, he just happens to have the item 'Dual Ancient Swords of Defence' (he blocks a few times, so thats my best guess).

Hes W/Ri.
