Overview & Creation

Every town and city has its share of rogues. Most of them live up to the worst stereotypes of the class, making a living as burglars, assassins, cutpurses, and con artists. Often, these scoundrels are organized into thieves' guilds or crime families. Plenty of rogues operate independently, but even they sometimes recruit apprentices to help them in their scams and heists. This specific class is accustomed to make circumstances in which things bend to the favor of them, by a set up of coincidences and mishaps."Shit happens"

Class Features

EXPERTISE At 1st level, choose two of your skill proficiencies, or one of your skill proficiencies and your proficiency with thieves' tools.

The amount of the extra damage increases as you gain levels in this class, as shown in the Misfortune Attack column of the Mercykiller table. THIEVES' CANT During your rogue training you learned thieves' cant, a secret mix of dialect, jargon, and code that allows you to hide messages in seemingly normal conversation. Only another creature that knows thieves' cant understands such messages. It takes four times longer to convey such a message than it does to speak the same idea plainly. In addition, you understand a set of secret signs and symbols used to convey short, simple messages, such as whether an area is dangerous or the territory of a thieves' guild, whether loot is nearby, or whether the people in an area are easy marks or will provide a safe house for thieves on the run.
