The League of Assassins are an ancient organization consisting of highly trained killers, led by Ra's al Ghul.

History

The League was formed by Ra's al Ghul hundreds of years ago with the purpose of tearing the world apart and rebuilding it as something far greater, with the most dangerous men who ever walked the earth as his disciples.[1]

There exists a sub-organization of the league called the League of Shadows. However, ownership of this group was given to Lady Shiva who has since turned them against the League of Assassins.[2]

Notes

Trivia

  • The League of Assassins bears striking resemblances to the Hashshashin, a medieval Islamic order of trained combatants and assassins, who were also lead by a mysterious "Old Man of the Mountain".
