Came up with a nice little thief class I like. Thieves include altruistic Robin Hoods, dashing cat-burglar jewel thieves, and merciless petty cutthroats. Thieves know five broad skills, with each skill rated between one and six. To successfully use a skill, the player must roll that score or lower on a d6. New thief characters start with a 1 in all skills, plus two points the player may assign as desired. Each time the thief gains a level, the player assigns one additional point to a skill. No skill can exceed five in six. - Stealth (hide in shadows, move silently) - Acrobatics (climbing, backflips, tightrope walking) - Tinkering (open locks, pick pockets, arm or disarm tiny traps or alarms, safecracking) - Assassination (poisons, backstabbing, martial arts) - Chicanery (disguise, fast-talking, forgery, intimidation, ventriloquism, coin clipping) When surprising an opponent, a thief backstabs with a damage roll multiplied by their Assassination score. - Go to bed a little early Eh.
