Q. Who is the god of Assassins

In various mythologies and fictional contexts, different deities are associated with assassination, death, or secretive killing, though there is no single universally recognized "god of assassins." In the popular Assassin's Creed video game franchise, characters reference concepts from multiple historical traditions, but the games are fictional and blend various mythologies. In actual historical mythology, ancient cultures had deities associated with death, stealth, and vengeance rather than assassination specifically—for example, the Greek god Thanatos represented death, Hades ruled the underworld, and the Furies enacted vengeance, while in Hindu mythology, Kali represents destruction and Yama is the god of death.

In historical contexts, the word "assassin" itself derives from the Hashshashin, a medieval Islamic sect active during the Crusades whose members carried out political and religious killings. They were not associated with worshiping a particular deity as a "god of assassins" but were devoted Muslims who used assassination as a political tool. In modern fantasy and gaming contexts, various fictional deities like Sithis from The Elder Scrolls series have been created to represent assassination and murder, but these are entirely fictional creations. The concept of a "god of assassins" is primarily a modern fictional construct rather than an authentic element of ancient religious traditions, which typically venerated life and order while viewing murder as transgressive, even when they acknowledged deities associated with death as a natural process.
