His other five daggers are hidden all over his body.

After he became a mercenary he shed his old life and left his possessions in his old home. All the new possessions he has received is kept safe in his footlocker in the mercenary guild in Mossflower.
Personality:
Normally he would kill you before he talks to you. but since a make-up with one of his life long enemy's he has become much more open. But if you are his target, you wont hear him unless he wants you to, or he wants to tell you goodbye.
Strengths:
His skill as an assassin is his major skill. He is able to move almost silently and not leave a trace, except for the body of his victim.
Weakness:
The only weakness that anyone has been able to exploit is his range. Yes he can throw his daggers very accurately, but if you are out of that range, say if you have a bow, he cant get you. The only other weakness he has is his tendency to make allot of enemies. The one that he hasn't either killed by now or made up with is Sliteye the fox.
History:
Born an only child in a small family living on the far northern coast of mossflower he was a very nice and polite rat when he was younger. Not even touching a weapon until he was much older. But when he was 8 years old a corsair ship came to their shores. His family ran, but Calithlin had sprained his foot a short while ago, so he couldn't outrun the corsairs.
They took him onto their ship and in no time at all had made him into a soulless killer. He would thank them for this later, but then he hated them for it. When he turned sixteen he went on his first raid. He remembers it well, because it was the first life he took. The crew sneaked up on the small home silently and attacked the foxes. Calithlin had been pushed into the front of the pirates and took aim at the youngest fox(Sliteye). Leaping at him he used the dagger the crew had given him and sliced him across the face. He grinned as the fox crumpled to the ground. Turning he stabbed the next fox, the father, though the throat.
The fight was over after that, and the crew left the foxes where they lay. But the kill had made Calithlin feel better, and when the crew came to shore to resupply he killed the captain, stole all his daggers, and escaped the ship. But their teachings had already made their mark. The young rat would never be the same.
Such was how he became a mercenary. Doing the odd jobs now and then. But one day during his twenty third year of life he was placed on the same job with another mercenary. They were attacking a Mouse settlement, and Cal fought along side the other merc, but the other merc was badly wounded. But before he died he told Calithlin about a secret guild of mercs, and where to find them.
Taking the ferrets advise Calithlin soon found the organization and though many years worked his way to the top. This was how he meet one of his other life long enemy's. He was walking when a ferret(Cutface) whose family Calithlin had killed for a job. Ambushed him. While they were fighting a small band of vermin joined the fight. Cal and Cut having to fight together to kill the other vermin. But Calithlin was badly injured and Cut surprisingly healed him. After this they got to talking, and soon became friends.
They are still friends now as they work together in the merc organization together, the two best mercs, taking only the best jobs.
Relationships:
Family: All dead.
Old captain: Dead, crew gave up trying to avenge his death long ago, they could never catch Calithlin, and if they did Cal killed them all.
True Friends: Cutface.
Employer: The Employer.
Mortal enemy: Sliteye the fox.
