How the fuck do Callidus Assassin work? Like I know shit but how do they actually work? So what I can remember.
1. Trained from a young age (though thanks to the Scion fluff it's really fucking vague, like how long do you kill your classmates at school before you go to further training somewhere else?) to be able to take Polymorphine and has to learn to bend and break their bones to reshape themselves. Painful and 99% of them are women because polymorphine works better on them.
2. Can become any humanoid and gender. Including Orks etc.
3. Assassins spray their bodysuit on which protects them and shit and (old fluff) requires a special substance to remove the bodysuit.
But this doesn't really answer some questions;
1. So an assassin turns themselves into somebody else... How does this actually work? Do they spray on their bodysuit, change into whatever THEN put on clothes? Or do they have to be naked, change shape, then put on clothes? (I swore there was a very old comic that showed when they remove the disguise of the bodymorph they're left in their bodysuit but this makes no sense, since why would, lets say, a Planetary Governor be wearing a bodysuit? Can they make it invisible and look like skin?). Or do they 'project' the clothes/armor onto themselves using tech and in reality all there is is their bodysuit?
2. Can they change into smaller things like Ratlings or Squats? Are Ogryns too big? Etc. If they change into the weirder abhumans (and there are actual shapeshifting abhumans in the setting so) do they get their abilities?
3. I assume they keep their fighting abilities when changed but lets say you turned into a kid or old guy, do you still get to move like you were a trained adult at the peak of human performance?
Or is this really 'don't think about it'. I don't think it has even been explained like how the process actually works, fully.

I think teh Callidus was teh first female mini with that kind of hair, it's probably something they could cast back then, and that looked dynamic and cool.
The first assassin minis are almost 30 years old, things were pretty low tech back then.

Wouldn't it be terrifying to see that your advisor was one of the Callidus in disguise and when you're alone in the room you see her revert into this fetish latex babe who immediately attacks you with her dagger? You're quick enough to draw and you deflect the blow with your own sword and you grab her wrist with your free hand as you disarm her, but she responds with a quick jab to the nerves in your arm. You immediately drop your own sword as your hand numbs, then you wrestle her. While she's weaker and smaller she surprises you as you see a flash of her long legs with stiletto heels kicking over your desk and vaulting over your head. Before you know it, her powerful thighs are wrapped around you! You both drop on the ground and you let of of her arms as you start to struggle. The latex squeaks against the bulging veins in your neck as her muscular legs tighten in a deadly leglock. You struggle for your life and perhaps thanks to the profusing sweat you squeeze your hands between her legs and push them apart, rolling sideways to face her. For a second your face is in contact with her crotch, but you pull yourself up frantically, every movement comes with a rubbery squeak as she reaches for her dagger. Now you're right on top of her, holding her other arm down, her legs wrapped around your waist. She attempts to stab you but you catch her by the wrist again and slam her arm down. You're facing each other, and you stare into the anonymous red eyes of her helmet as you both breathe heavily, and you realize that your erection is pressing right between her legs. One of her legs dropped back down on the floor, quivering with exhaustion, the other still wrapped against you and for a second, that leg squeezes you and your manhood presses harder against her crotch. She's looking at you now and she won't let go. Her hips start swaying gently against you. She pulls your arms gently inward and invites you to grab her neck "You win. Now choke me daddy," she says.
