Assassin’s true identity is Henry VIII of England, the Trueheart King.
Usually appearing bedecked in well-made plate armor and wielding a heavy mace, Henry does not bring to mind an Assassin in terms of appearance. He is a boisterous man, seeming to be having the time of his life in almost any activity. Indeed, he seems to excel in oddly many things, chalking it up to his status as a king. Henry would also be quick to switch his clothing to follow the latest fashions of the modern world.
He seems to approach most things with bravado and good-natured humor, delighted to be able to take part in a battle of legends and prove his worth. Though on the outside, he is full of himself, he does find himself comparing unfavorably to most Heroic Spirits who were rulers in life. Despite this relative humility, he still holds himself above Heroic Spirits who weren’t rulers.
Henry fancies himself as something of a ladies man, being quick to approach beautiful women with amorous intent. Normally boisterous, Henry would turn quite sweet when approaching a lady he fancies, trying to woo them with his talents in the arts or his physical prowess. This change in demeanour is not entirely an act, but refusing his advances would still provoke him.
However, Henry also holds a fierce temper, and brooks no argument from anyone, reacting with fury to the slightest resistance. There are many things indeed that can rouse his anger, and he is quick to denounce those that push his buttons, sentencing them to death for their crime. The law his Noble Phantasm is based on, penned by Henry personally, provides a multitude of excuses for a swift execution. Still, it is possible to calm the king with flattery. He also respects a steadfast devotion to duty, and may grant leniency when finding such a side in a person.
As a proud king, Henry would look down on anyone calling themselves his Master. If they insisted on it, Henry would be quick to turn on them, possibly even killing them if provoked enough. A Master posing themselves as his attendant and advisor, on the other hand, would be someone he would get along with well. As long as they don’t aggravate him, of course.
On the subject of his wish, Henry is indecisive. On one hand, he would wish to prevent the injury which led to the loss of his sanity as well as prevented him from partaking in his treasured sports. On the other, he would seek to undo the Protestant Reformation that his actions led to. Henry still sees himself as Catholic first and foremost, and is appalled at what his, admittedly rash, actions led to.
