Simo Hayha "White Death"

Mid Tier Assassin:

Simo Hayha "White Death"

Description:

Became a sniper for the Finnish Army during the Winter War between Finland and the Soviet Union. He was credited with 505 sniper kills with an assumed unconfirmed kill count closer to 800. He accomplished all of his kills in less than 100 days, meaning that he killed on average over 5 people every day during a time of year where there were very few daylight hours.

He sustained an injury 6 days before peace was established, keeping him in a coma until after the war ended. He lived to the ripe old age of 96 before passing from old age in the year 2002.

Abilities:

Resistance to Cold: A

Most of the campaign he fought in took place between -20 to -40 degrees C

Ranged Specialist: A

Stamina and patience to snipe over 5 people a day for 100 days straight in low light times of day.

He never used a scope, opting for iron sights and made incredible use of the snow he fought in to limit the enemies view of him. He had a great sense of improvisation in the field, such as putting snow in his mouth to limit the sight of steamy breaths whilst sniping.

Noticeable Features: B

Due to sustaining an injury to his face from an explosive bullet, he has very characteristic scars that would be noticeable in a crowd.

Presence Concealment: C

Being a soldier, assassination was never something he tried to do, but sniping generally earns you a similar moniker. As such, his Presence Concealment is weaker than that of a true assassin, but his tendency to attack from extreme range tended to soften this defect. Also, due to the detriment of Noticeable Features, this score is reduced at closer ranges.

Magic Resistance: E

As a soldier fighting in a war that took place less than a century ago, he never truly encountered magic and so his resistance is virtually non-existent.

Noble Phantasm:

Civil Guard Rifle (SAKO M/28-30 Mosin-Nagant Rifle): C

His weapon of choice and the item that earned him his terrifying nickname. It comes equipped with no scope and is lethal at 400 yards.

The Winter War: B

A unique bounded field similar to a Reality Marble, this ability allows the White Death to simulate the location of the war that earned him his nickname. All enemies within range are placed in an extremely winterized version of their current location. This includes piles of snow, poor lighting, and an extreme drop in temperature to -40 degrees C. Anyone without Cold Resistance takes a penalty to physical (and maybe mental) abilities. The White Death gains an improved step in Presence Concealment, which resets when he sets up for a new shot.
