Backstory: Highly experienced freelance assassin who had been operating across Europe for a number of years. Changling was a mysterious figure whose true identity is an unknown. The murderer recognized only for the steel mask he often wears and the uncanny abilities he possesses.
For the Changlings name came from his ability to assume the appearance of others. Allowing him to take on the identity of any individual to get up close to his target and take them out. Copying their appearance and build, their height and voice, he was somehow able to completely alter his appearance in mere moments.
Identified by the Cartel as a useful asset, Changling would be offered the chance to join their organization, recognized as the greatest assassin in all of Europe. With the villains life on the line should he refuse. An offer which Changling pragmatically accepted.
