I use an hourglass. For the Summitmist Manor quest I like to take one of the sweetrolls off the table and replace it with an hourglass every time I kill one of the guests. Although it sucks when someone else comes along and eats one before I'm ready. >.<

No. If somebody died by my hand, they know it. I don't need to advertise.

What's with all of you people trying to scare all the NPCs? I leave skooma on the bodies of my victims. Hey, if you find a loved one's body on the floor, would you want to be sober? :lol:

I put a quill ( I RP that it's a black feather) next to anyone I killed with a purpose. Like Dark Brotherhood missions or people that I 'mark' for death.

[offtopic]Leading research in Sociology shows: serial killers who leave behind a "calling card" or type of signature, are often found to be extremely narcissistic... meaning they have to let some one know they have done it, they like the attention.[/offtopic]

Nothing. The cleanest job is the one where foul play is in doubt.
Baurus: Our job is to get the Emperor out of situations like this. Though I'll admit, things aren't going exactly to plan.

Casandra: At the moment, the deadliest weapon at my disposal is a goblin's head on a stick. I'd be worried if this was the plan.

I never thought about it, but it's a cool idea. If I were to leave a calling card, I think it would probably depend on my character. It's all about the role-playing. For example, my previous stealth-oriented character relished in her poverty, so might leave something like "The Beggar Prince" or a loaf of bread.

I had a lot of fun with my Dark Seducer who would always position the body accordingly to how the person died, i.e if it was a honorable death and such. I can't remember my logic behind the positionings now but it was very clear to me at the time. :lol:

Skooma is good as it makes the look like they have overdosed.

Kind of hard to fake an overdose when they have their limbs hacked off and an arrow sticking out of their skull.

Because about 40% and at least semi-public ("Yes, finally... I finally killed hi- OH HAI! :lol: ), I usually don't need to leave a calling card, or have the time to do so.

And besides, hasn’t the whole history of Assassinations been to make sure no one knows who did it, kinda' like how the whole history of guns it to make them go completely straight? (Screw you, Wanted!)
