Becoming a Legend of the Sniper
A Legend of the Sniper must of come from being a gunslinger. Every gunslinger has had the thought, what if I could kill him before he even knew I was there. Well now that itch is scratched. Like any LotG, a LotS has a certain aptitude with magic but it didn't fully satisfy his ambitions, so now hes here.

Ex-Legend of the Snipers
Playing a Legend of the Sniper
They are typically expert trackers, with a passion for not being seen by their mark unless they choose to be seen, usually living in the wild or in smaller cities or villages. If you ever seen a Legend of the Sniper in a capital, it is most likely because he is on the job.
Combat: Long Range firing support
Resources: There is no Guild or established organization for a Legend of the Sniper or a Legend of the Gunslinger
Legend of the Snipers in the World
Deadly hired guns. Pricey hit-men. A few have been known to join groups of other mercenaries.
NPC Reactions: The Vast Majority of people have never seen nor heard of a Legend of the Sniper, so in public they prefer to keep their weapons hidden so as to not draw anymore attention to themselves.
