Unless you want you want to use your High Charisma score, Assassin all the way. Blackguard doesn't synnergize very well with sneaker builds when you put it against Assassin...
"From the realms below we ride,
And in terror they run and hide,
From the shadows of old we rise,
Awakened, from the dark!

Over the ancient ruins we fly,
Where the old kings go to die,
And the new kingdoms rising high,
Awakened, from the dark, dark slumber!"

I'd say Assassin. HiPS is more useful. Also, don't take level 10 Assassin; only take 9 levels. I'd take another level of rogue for more skill points, instead.

If your character depends on sneak attacks for their damage, definitely assassin. HiPS feels pretty much mandatory; feint doesn't seem reliable here.

Though I'd also add that if you're depending on sneak attacks for damage, it'd be a good idea to angle for getting Epic Precision.

How much Bluff do you have? You need a lot on this server if you're going down the Feint path, and you need to feint if you want to go Blackguard. I think Assassin is generally going to be more useful for you, doubly so if you've already invested in Hide and Move Silently.
