[[Image:Spymaster.JPG|thumb]]'''Spymasters''' are a rare group of spies among the Horde, masters of disguise. Like the Alliance's [[infiltrator]]s, a spymaster's main purpose is to charm and manipulate her way into the enemy's trust. However, the Horde's spymasters serve a much more insidious purpose; they are both parts spy and assassin. As a spymaster learns her craft she learns several useful abilities. She gains insight into the sapient mind, learning how people act and instinctively reacting via a crude, learned form of telepathy. This ability extends into battle; a spymaster learns to feel the ebb of her opponents' thoughts and to react before they do. A spymaster can extend her telepathy to her stealth, clouding the minds of those around her and rendering herself momentarily invisible. A spymaster also learns that the body is just as malleable as the mind: The ultimate goal of the spymaster is to become so good at disguises that she can physically alter her body into anyone she wishes.

The Horde is the only faction with the knowledge of how to become a spymaster. Rumors say the half-orc Garona was the first to learn the skills, based originally on knowledge gained from tortured Alliance infiltrators, and warped with the Horde's fel magics. This is not to say that a spymaster's abilities are vile - just their origins. Most spymasters are half-orcs and Forsaken: races already familiar with how humans think and act. Most other races of the Horde are not quite as disciplined or diplomatic enough to learn the arts of disguise and telepathy. Occasionally an orc or troll proves smart and charismatic enough to become a spymaster.

A spymaster's style tends toward the flamboyant, and they are often vain. A spymaster is never content with her normal self, and constantly adjusts to fit her idea of the perfect creature. Spymasters rarely work with other characters, preferring to be by themselves, in part due to their knowledge of what everyone else is thinking. They also tend to be overconfident in their abilities, walking with a certain swagger, and leap at any challenging job just to prove they can do it.

The Horde use spymasters for most undercover jobs, where chicanery is more important than force. Unlike Alliance infiltrators, however, a spymaster is more often an assassin as well. A common use of a spymaster is to have the agent slip in unnoticed and replace a servant or bodyguard, assuming the murdered victim's role until she can get close enough to kill her targets. Occasionally, a spymaster assumes the role of an assassinated noble, using the victim's wealth and influence to wreak havoc. It isn't unheard of to discover a prized counselor has always been an agent of the Horde in disguise. Uncovering the spymaster often is even more damaging than leaving the false agent in power, as it shatters the confidence of citizens and creates suspicion among best friends. Who else may be an agent in disguise?

Most spymasters hail from the [[rogue]] class, though many come from the [[expert]] class. Any person who shows intelligence and cunning attracts the interest of a spymaster. Spymasters frown on crude, muscle-bound types, and thus rarely get along with [[barbarian]]s and [[warrior]]s. most spymasters are indifferent to divine casters, as many are strict atheists. They constantly see into the hearts of others, and about any divine creator would honor such petty creatures. Spymasters enjoy the power and abilities of arcanists, since their powers originated with arcane magic.{{Cite|HPG|75, 76}}
