The Spectral Assassin is a power that allows you to summon the spirit of former Speaker of the Black Hand, Lucien Lachance. You can summon it once per day after completing the Dark Brotherhood quest: Bound Until Death.

After being summoned, he will follow the player around no matter where you are at until he is defeated. He is equipped with Shrouded Armor , and a dagger.

While it isn't possible to engage in an actual converstation, he will speak about current events such as: the player's current location (towns, and his memories of visting them), the contract that the player is embarked on, events from his previous life, the Dread Father, Sithis , and his thoughts. Through this dialouge, it is revealed that he had visted Skyrim in his previous life.
