Geisha were actually fairly wealthy, or independant, women who wished to express women power in a male society. The things they did they did it in the name of nobility... Or the fact that they had women power now. Intruth they werent just prostitutes, you'see? What they did they didn't do for money, kay? Well.. Most of the things they did they didn't do for money...
Think of it this way. They were women who held power. That was frowned upon dureing that time period. Why else do you think the male society at that time branded them as nothing more than prostitutes? Obviously that is far from the truth...

If you see it that way, that's fine with me.
Afterall, that time man wouldn't let woman held much power in their hands. So they had to used everything they had to survive. It's not that i looked down on them, Duke.
. Afterall, the situation led them to be one.
You're not a big fan of Memoirs of Geisha, are you ?
PS: There is male geisha profession i believe.

Never watched it... Just saying that the Geisha proffession wasent just about prostitution. It was only play'd that way because it was dureing a pro-male society time line. You'know, where women had no real rights. So for a woman to hold power dureing that time really irked alot of the men inpower off. They didn't want to lose any ground to women, who they saw as their mere servants.
Though Geisha have been known tobe hired for murders, to play music, and the such. But since this is China there arent any of those around... Well, not yet. So the only class fitting what you want would be a normal Assassin.
