Competition: "What's in a logo?"

Finished
"What's in a logo?"

Battleteam Tacitus Athanasius (Silent Death) has recently come to life in House Excidium. However, our battleteam isn't quite complete without a logo. Therefore, you're to create a logo that best symbolizes who we are as a battleteam (assassins, shadows, death, and of course apart of Excidium)

Any method of graphics may be used. Entries must be submitted in standar image submissions (jpg, png, etc.)

I'm not good at graphics, and I don't pretend to be.. But if we get this shined up by a professional, it'll be great. I could paint it up too if necessary. This is also a png, so no stupid white area around the pic.
