I found this on the official wiki:

The common notion is that assassins stem from a warrior tradition,
dating back to the “hassarans” that roamed Antiva and the Free Marches
during the time of the First Blight. These were men and women who had
been trained into lethal killers using nothing but their hands, feared
throughout the north. The truth, however, is one few accept: the Crows
started as an arm of the Chantry. In the gentle hills north of Treviso,
an order of monks used the herbs grown in the gardens of their abbey to
oppose the rule of a despotic duke in the only manner they could. The
poisons they developed were intended to help the helpless, and while
many would wonder that an order of assassins could have had such noble
beginnings the truth of the matter is that the Crows do not see
themselves as corrupt in the slightest. In their own words: “All that
is good has been built on the bodies of the fallen. If we are to be
killers, then let us also be architects.”

The DA setting is really brilliant.

Seems to have a few parallels to the Hashshashins.
