Sorry, there isn't any more context on this one. All that I can say is that it is for a fantasy video game. Perhaps if I could just find a good translation for *Mordbuben* it might point me in the right direction! Thanky!

Note from asker:
| I thought of hitman too, but I put it in the "maybe" pile, because I don't think it fits the fantasy genre. |
Peer comment(s):
| agree |
Darin Fitzpatrick
: Depending on the fantasy genre (swords and sorcerers?) you could also use "assassination job."
