Sinnin' depends on the point of view of the Blessed, not the facts of the situation.  If a Black Magician mind-controls a child, covers that child with an illusion and sends her out to "attack" a Blessed who then kills her in "self-defense", no Sin has been committed (though the Blessed in question will surely be buggered in the head over the situation).  The Blessed was acting in what he thought in good faith to be self-defense.  If humans are dressing as monsters to attack a Blessed, he can kill them in self-defense (especially if he has no reason to suspect them of being humans to begin with).
