Holy Slayer (new class)

 Instruments of the gods, holy slayers are assassins tied to religious institutions. In my own game world this would be followers of the Unnamed Saint of Nkume. In many regards the class is very similar to the assassin with a few adjustments.

Deity disfavour: Holy slayers must be faithful to the tenets of their alignment and religion. Holy slayers who fall from favour with their deity may incur penalties. 

Each time the holy slayer gains a level there is a 1-in-6 chance they will be called upon by their order to carry out an assassination with a 5-in-6 chance the individual is in a near by location. Failure to answer the call will result in the holy slayer being branded a renegade, cast out and hunted by their own order.
