You may never notice them. Slipping past you unassumingly with a kit bag. But at any given moment they’ve ripped out their laptop and they’re building loops on the bus. Software Assassins can strike from any angle, the world is their studio a woe betide anyone who gets in their way. With a deadly satchel of VST’s at their disposal and an external hard drive brimming with bubbling drum loops, they can concote any type of music, for any situation, at any second. Software Assassins are intelligent and perceptive needing a solid knowledge of music theory as well as a keen ear for music to produce really killer loops.

Software Assassins can choose to specialise in one of two specific lore branches:

Lore of the DAW – If a Software Assassin chooses to master the law of the DAW they become a workstation savant and they’re able to communicate with each and every DAW imaginable. They’re able to chain midi effects in ways that lesser producers cannot grasp and, most amazing of all, they truly, deeply, wholly understand compression. To specialise in the lore of the DAW a Software assasin needs an intelligence score of 80+.

Lore of the VST – Square, saw or sine. All are bent to the will of the assassin that champions the lore of the VST. They’re able to craft and deploy lush multi-layered sounds and sinister hoops to beguile and disorientate dancers. Truly kings of musical subterfuge they can bend a tease hooks out of the most basic VST’s and wield them to deadly effect.
