""Blasphemer! You are not worthy to speak of the great Ra's al Ghul!""
—The Unnamed Assassin to Batman

The Unnamed Assassin is one of Talia al Ghul's personal guards. She was assigned to escort Talia into Arkham City, and to keep track of the growing chaos.

Incident Reports[]

Before Arkham City Incident[]

At some point, she ambushed the Penguin's Henchmen and, despite successfully killing eight of them, was eventually incapacitated. The Assassin then endured several weeks (possibly months) of captivity, and was stuck in one of the Penguin's glass display cases as part of his collection. Despite being questioned several times about her origins, the assassin remained tight-lipped and chose to remain completely silent. Growing frustrated with the lack of information, as well as being preoccupied with the Arkham Gang War, Penguin eventually lost his patience with her and instead opted to just leave her confined to her case where she remained.

Over time the Assassin grew more and more docile to the point where she refused to speak a single word and even seemingly became comfortable with her captivity. At some point, Robin entered Arkham City disguised as an inmate. He passed the display where the assassin was kept, and noted that she looked real enough. The assassin's eyes followed him as he moved away from the display.

Arkham City Incident[]

On the night that Protocol 10 was ready to be commenced, the Assassin's solitude was interrupted when Batman broke into the Museum to free Mr. Freeze. Despite the obvious chance of freedom, the Assassin instead opted to ignore the events that were happening outside her case and started to meditate.

Eventually, when Batman mentioned the name of Ra's al Ghul, the Assassin came to life for the first time in months, and using her renewed strength, attempted to shatter her way out of her glass case. That proved successful, though she ended up cutting herself on some of the glass. Declaring that the vigilante was not worthy speak of her master, the Assassin then fled from the Museum with the intention of finding Talia and warning her of the potential danger that Batman could bring upon them.

Batman, however, was able to follow the Assassin with no problem by tracing her blood, which prompted the Assassin to ambush him. After she successfully knocked the vigilante to the ground, the Assassin warned him to stop following her unless he wished for a gruesome death and that the only reason that he was even still alive right now was because her master wished it. Before the Assassin could threaten him further, she herself was ambushed by Robin. Before further violence could proceed, a small group of the League of Assassins appeared to help her. Outnumbered and not willing to risk Robin's safety against opponents more skilled then he, Batman ordered him to stand down and reluctantly agreed to stop following the Assassin, though not before he secretly placed a tracking device on the Assassin's shoulder.

Eventually making his way into Wonder City, Batman was overcome by a sudden outbreak of sickness from the Titan Disease. While incapacitated, Batman was suddenly surrounded by a squadron of Assassins. Furious that Batman had not heeded her warning, the Assassin prepared to cut his head off only to be stopped at the last second by Talia.

When asked how he had managed to find them, Batman revealed he had planted a tracking device on the Assassin's shoulder. Clearly angered by this lack of foresight on the Assassin's part, Talia brushed away the Assassin's attempts to explain herself, and said only that she would deal with her later.

It's unknown what became of the Assassin after that, although it's unlikely that she was one of the casualties of Protocol 10 and it could be assumed that she remained underground for the rest of the night.
