Thief

Description

Adepts of shadow and subterfuge, thieves make their fortunes in the underbellies of distant cities and on the lonely trade roads with equal ease. As a thief, you're hard to pin down and hit, easily evading enemy attacks before slipping behind them fro the kill. Agility is your greatest weapon -- both for avoiding harm, and landing your own blows -- however, having the cunning to pick out your enemies' weaknesses and the strength to exploit them are valuable assets indeed. The life of a thief is one of profit through swiftness and guile.
