The life of an assassin is not an easy one - living in solitude, accompanied by hours of meditation, coupled with the extreme discipline of a rigid exercise regimen that will literally kill any other 'normal' Warriors, reducing them into fetal balls, whimpering.

AND she my cut her breasts with the daggers if it's bigger!

I can't risk it!

If you lived the life of an assassin on shing jea, you'd be anorexic and roughed up too.

The way of an assassin is to eliminate all obstacles but your target of assassination. This includes eliminating the need of food and meditating even under the pressure of a heavy waterfall as well as defending yourself without protective equipment such as shields, and being able to carry hundreds of daggers at once while keeping up to speed with the weight and being so skill with daggers, to not cut yourself.

It really does make sense how skinny they are.
Even real-life Ninjutsu is very difficult, though not even close to the fictional GW ninja/assassin.

This armor should be added:

You're right, it is not even close. My Ninjutsu instructor was around 18 - 20 stone though that man could fly.

Also if you was doing all that hard work you would put some weight on to a degree due to increased muscle mass from carrying those "100's" of daggers.

The only reason female Assassins look so slim is because they have smaller breasts than all the other classes and also their posture.

I just want a female paragon with some GODDAMN PANTS...

Female assassins are just fine, IMO. They have abs for crying out loud!

Steal'em from Hayda's Deldrimnor set. Personally, though, the bare midriffs annoy me more - armoured skirts were common in classical times, but I don't think any serious warrior thought armour with a bare midriff was a good idea.

Whether the female sins just refuse to eat ice-cream and chocolate or whether they're just not big-boned enough... I do really think that they look as though they could snap like a twig. Just one mean glare from an enemy and the tiny little girl is dead. : (

Uh. No. Mean bad enemy would be DEAD before he could even LOOK at the "tiny little girl".

Female assassins do not need to change. At all.
