Hassan of the Shining Star

An assassin clad in a black robe and skull mask, wielding a black blade. He is known as "Hassan of the Shining Star," and was one of those who served as the "Old Man of the Mountain," the leader of the Hassan-i Sabbah.

Owing to his mastery of abilities so extraordinary they bordered on the supernatural, he rose to the position of leader at a very young age. He did not actually make decisions for the entire Order (as was also true for Hassan of the Serenity), but rather continued to fulfill his duties as ordered by the sect's elders.

He preceded Hassan of the Serenity as leader of their sect, which led Hassan of the Serenity to look up to him as an excellent predecessor who quietly carried out his duties. But to be honest, he is uncomfortable with that kind of attention.

A reticent young assassin. His blood is as cold as his wits are sharp. He understands his own capabilities well and constantly strives to be efficient in all that he does. Being especially aware of his own limited resistance to mental magecraft and the like, he has a habit of swiftly eliminating mages and spellcasters during combat. Though his words and actions may seem to be devoid of emotion, he still clings to the last remnants of his boyish sensitivity.

Dark Night Martial Mastery: A

An assassination technique refined over several generations. This skill especially demonstrates expertise in close quarters combat, whether bare-handed or armed. Additionally, fighting in low-light environments, especially at night, grants bonuses. Should this skill rise to rank A, it becomes possible to act without penalty even in complete darkness or when one's vision has been lost.

Combat Acceleration (Shadow): A+

A special technique that closes distance with the target. At A rank, this skill is said to be able to considered an ultimate technique.

Black Blade: C+

Short curved swords, the blades made from black Damascus steel subjected to special processing. Having drunk up countless lives over the years, these blades have already reached the level of being a Mystic. This would typically be a Noble Phantasm, but it is considered a skill in this game.

『Zabaniya』

Rank: C+

NP Type: Anti-Personnel/Anti-Army Technique

Range: 1-80

Maximum Targets: 1-50

Unthinking Skeleton.

A supreme technique which enables ultra-high-speed movement and combat maneuvers. By activating Magic Circuits throughout the body, agility and mobility are dramatically increased. This technique possesses properties akin to a form of curse-based magecraft, producing unique magical effects.

Upon release of this technique's True Name, the user's Magic Circuits are hyper-activated and overclocked to their absolute limits, wreathing the user in their radiant glow. Leaving trails of light in his wake, the user reaches the pinnacle of super-speed and unleashes a brutal flurry of attacks upon his target.

...While True Name release is powerful, it carries immense risk. Not only does the backlash of activation inflict damage upon the user, but also maintaining it beyond its time limit (10 seconds) will destroy the user's runaway Magic Circuits, causing his body to collapse from within and resulting in him vanishing like a shining star...ultimately ending in death.

The Throne is, at times, considered to supersede time and space. When Hassan manifested on the Storm Border at the beginning of Ordeal Call II, it seemed he had already experienced much of what would later happen.

(This is why he was unsure which Count of Monte Cristo he encountered, and so he instinctively went on guard because he was unable to determine whether he was friend or foe.)
