Demonic Assassins are supernatural hitmen hired by other demons or evil magical beings to kill both mortal and magical targets. These assassins are often hired by high-ranking, upper-level demons. The Source of All Evil had a personal assassin, Shax, although he also sent other demons to kill targets, such as members of the Brotherhood of the Thorn. The Charmed Ones faced several of these hitmen over the course of the series.
