Have you tried spinning that incident a different way?

You know how usually, Assassins are supposed to be efficient, quick, clean--just plain effective at killing Sues. They tend to be pretty pragmatic, quickly sneaking up on a Sue and incapacitating it; or else just killing it straight out because it hasn't got enough of a personality to resist.

So, in this case, your agent got into a fight with a character replacement. What if he accidentally alerted the replacement Firenze of his presence, and had to fight instead of doing a quick, stealthy assassination?

I don't see why you shouldn't have your agents fighting stuff; it can be interesting. Just remember to keep the general PPC vibe going--you know, barely competent, everyday people, stuck into a situation that's completely crazy, and making it out again more because they're creative and persistent than because they're badass. Down the path of badass lies the Stu. :P

Oh, and one more thing. However you re-write it, you absolutely have to keep that "delicate hand". It's deliciously creepy!
