Rogue

Rogues prefer a more subtle approach over strength using their quick wits and fast hands.

They live by subterfuges, but not all of them are thieves (even if most of them are). They have a lot of personal and physical skills that help them to get in and out of trouble effortlessly. The less they have to toil and struggle like everyone else the better they think they are.

Sub-classes #

• Assassin
• Ranger
• Scout
• Thief

Special Abilities #

Rogues start with the special ability to sneak up on an opponent by making a successful skill check roll using the SUB skill group and DEX modifier. Then try to backstab (Melee or Missile) the opponent. If the backstab attack hits, the Rogue may add their SUB skill group score to the damage.

Other special abilities will be revealed later on in the game and will be rewarded every 3 levels. See Level Advancement for more information.
