Who can build me the nastiest assassin-type character?

Legal books:
Core
Complete Series
Tome of Battle
PHB II
Exp Psionics Handbook
let me know if you think of other great ones. . . WotC only

Looking for lots of stealth/sneaking/movement ability
. . . and lots of one-shot kill or big damage thru sneak or other special attacks

Show me whatcha got!

Druid20. See that little bird in the window? It just killed you.

I'd recommend looking around a bit -- there are plenty of assassin builds out there. Swash3/Rog2/Assassin9/TelfShadowlord. Xeraph's Archivist/BlackFlameZealot/Strifeleader. Fatespinner Assassin. TG has a triple shadow-pouncing shadowlord in the Tome of Battle Guide. Lurk12/PsychicAssassin8 can do 14 Intelligence Damage, plus death attack plus sneak.

But generally casters are the best assassins.

Just a friendly notice,
The regulars here tend to prefer that you start the build off. Coming with nothing and "challenging" them to create your character usually won't get you very far. Post a build first, and they'll be happy to tweak it or even revise it entirely for you.
