Assassin run animation?

Is it me, or does the Assassin personality have a really odd run animation? The animations keep switching between the normal run, and this semi goofy run that looks almost like my character has a sword in hand and is ready to stab someone, with a shield in the other hand. If the second animation is the assassin run animation, I think it looks rather goofy.

    "this semi goofy run that looks almost like my character has a sword in hand and is ready to stab someone"

    That is exactly what it is supposed to look like as it is the personality of someone who kills people by you guessed it "STABBING THEM"

    I know, but the lack of the actual sword in hand just seems weird.

    They used to be holding the Blade of Woe. Characters using this personality had it with them all the time and played with it quite a lot.

    That was rather annoying, so we asked ZOS to make them not play with the Blade of Woe all the time like that.

    ZOS removed the Blade of Woe but didn't change the animation to reflect it, so that's what we have now.
    Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.

    Meet my characters:
    Command: Do the thing.

    Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
    Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
    Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
    Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
    Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
    Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
    Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
    Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
    Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
    Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.

    See right here, your the ones who caused these problems not ZOS, it was fine with the blade as it was so its not "we" who asked for it as I sure as hell didn't, Some people like myself actually liked the blade of woe being visible with it.

    "We" being "me and other people", not "all of us players". Go to the threads on the PTS forum talking about this personality and see how many people mention the fiddling with the Blade of Woe being too frequent.

    It also clipped with any weapon you had on your sides, so it looked pretty bad when double-wielding.

    Point fingers as much as you like. No one asked for the animations to not be changed to reflect the now missing blade. It makes no sense for them not to change the animations.
