And they are all Assassins. This trope was used by [[MeaningfulName Emmanuelle les Deux Epées]] from [[FantasyCounterpartCulture Quirm]] who kills someone by playing a certain set of cords on a violin, firing a crossbow bolt. The author chose a violin deliberately, as the character was working as hitperson for the Troll crimelord Chrysoprase, to spoof 1930's tropes of the killer taking an unexpected tommy gun out of a violin case to play the music with.
