	'''Cheap''' '''Shot''': This skill allows the character to make the most out of an opportunity when they are working with others. This skill acts as a minor interrupt and ''Negates'' the last active skill/ability their opponent used, though the effect is not expended and can be used again. This can only be used on attacks that target/affect someone other than the character using the ''Cheap Shot'' skill, this includes the opponent.

This can only be used on attacks that target/affect someone other than the character using the ''Cheap Shot'' skill, this includes the opponent.

	'''Conceal''': A character using this skill instantly becomes ''Hidden'', for a brief time. This skill is activated by calling “Conceal!” Once activated, the character ~~places~~ their hands ~~open palms together over~~ their ~~head~~ and for the ~~next 10 seconds~~ they are ~~hidden~~ and can ~~move~~. ~~This skill does not remove any effects that are currently on the character~~.		'''Conceal''': A character using this skill instantly becomes ''Hidden'', for a brief time. This skill is activated by calling “Conceal!” Once activated, the character must place their hands in front of their chest (closed, with knuckles touching), and can stay there for up to an hour, though the character cannot move from their Hide location (other than minor shifting). While hidden, they are aware of the world around them and can see and hear anything they would normally be able to. Leaving Hide simply takes a 5 Counted Action.

	'''Crippling Attack:''' This ability allows the character to deliver a blow to a target that has almost instant and lasting effects. This attack is delivered with the call "Crippling Strike” and a single weapon swing hit or miss. This will cause the affected target to be unable to move faster than a walking pace, for the remainder of the encounter.

	'''Hide''': This skill allows the character to become Hidden from normal view. This skill has several rules that must be followed for its use: First, in order to use this skill, the character must be next to an object that is stationary or cannot be easily moved, and the object must be larger than the player. Second, it takes a 5 Counted Action to enter Hide, which must be done while no one is actively looking at the character in game. Third, once in Hide, the character must place their hands in front of their chest (closed, with knuckles touching), and can stay there for up to an hour, though the character cannot move from their Hide location (other than minor shifting). While in Hide, they are aware of the world around them and can see and hear anything they would normally be able to. Leaving Hide simply takes a 5 Counted Action.

	'''Ambush:''' With this skill the character unleashes a powerful blow that will knock out most opponents. When used, the player must call “Ambush". This skill can be used from the front; however, if used from behind the target the call is “Ambush Surprise” making the attack very difficult to avoid. This skill can only be delivered with a melee boffer attack. A target that is affected by this attack is unconscious for 10 minutes. <u>This attack is metabolic.</u>		'''Ambush:''' With this skill the character unleashes a powerful blow that will knock out most opponents.

	'''Sneak Attack:''' This skill allows the user to deliver a vicious attack that is difficult to avoid. When used, the character adds the “Surprise” Modifier to their weapon call. In addition to the ''Surprise'' carrier, if used while attacking a target from the front, the character can add all of their ''Precision'' bonus damage to the attack; and if used to attack a target on the back, their normal damage call is doubled. Example: A character that normally swings “3 Normal” from the front and “7 Normal” from behind would have their calls be “7 Normal Surprise” from the front and “14 Normal Surprise” from the back. When activated the characters next 2 weapons swings will be affected, though they are both a single swing hit or miss.

			'''Sneaky Sneaky:''' by spending an extra energy for a given attack, you may append the silent prefix. The Silent Prefix makes your attack be treated like '''<nowiki/>'What do I see?'''' it's an out of game call and unless you see the person doing it you cannot react to it.

	'''Stash''': This skill allows the character to hide an object, which may contain other items, for up to 3 hours. The object to be hidden can be no larger than 1 cu.ft. in total area. When this skill is used the character must place a “Stash” tag on the item and write the time the skill was used on the back of the tag. While similar to ''Secret Box'' this item can be found though not easily. To notice that there is a stash a character must have at least rank 10 in the ''Track'' skill, and even then, must make a ''Contested Roll'' that is considered to have 10 levels of counter tracking.

'''Clean Getaway:''' You're great at covering your tracks.

	'''Shadow Strike''' Prerequisite: Conceal, Move Silent This power doubles the effects of the Move Silent skill, allowing up to 30 steps or 2 attacks while remaining Hidden.		'''Lock Expert:''' Through your constant exposure to locking mechanisms and the linear nature of those mechanisms you have become adept at picking most mundane locks. Twice per reset open any lock for which you have at least a 20% chance once modifiers are tabulated, you may choose to automatically succeed on a disable device attempt.

This allows your party of up to 10 people to move past an encounter without engaging. This skill requires some amount of cover, shadows, or darkness.

			'''Smoke Screen:''' This skill allows the character to create a field of smoke that breaks Line of Sight for ranged attacks. While activated, the rogue must raise their hands, separated above their head and announce "Smoke Screen" every few seconds for up to 30 seconds. While this skill is active, others within melee weapon reach of the character are protected from ranged attacks from outside melee weapon range, however they can be targeted if an attacker is within melee weapon range of a protected character. Using this skill requires concentration and thus will end early if the character becomes Helpless, puts their hands down or is affected by any effect that prevents the character from taking actions.

	'''Sneak Attack:''' This skill allows the user to deliver a vicious attack that is difficult to avoid. When used, the character adds the “Surprise” Modifier to their weapon call. In addition to the ''Surprise'' carrier, if used while attacking a target from the front, the character can add all of their ''Precision'' bonus damage to the attack; and if used to attack a target on the back, their normal damage call is doubled.

	'''Disable Device:''' This skill allows the character to use and understand both simple and complex locks, traps, physical puzzles, tools, and even mechanical devices. The use of this skill requires a ''Contested Roll'', must be role-played, and takes 2 minutes of concentration to attempt. This skill can also be used to arm traps which also take 2 minutes of concentration. Some traps or puzzles may have physical components that can be disarmed without a ''Contested Roll'', and the player has the option to still make the ''Contested Roll'' or can choose to physically try and disable the trap/puzzle and once the choice is made you cannot go with the other option. A large advantage to physically disabling the trap is that there is no time restriction and you can disable as fast as you physically can. A player can spend 30 seconds to analyze the object to be disabled at the end of which the marshal will tell them the level of the item as well as how well-crafted it is. Trap/Lock level is equal to the production cost of the item. This skill has a max of 20 Ranks, and each Rank adds 1 Bonus to the characters ''Contested Rolls''.

	'''Disguise''': This skill allows the character to hide who they truly are. The character can give a false answer to "''What do I see''", changing their ~~race~~ or other minor features such as glowing hands; or for the same cost they can leave false information for ''Tracking''. Or the character can change their appearance for an entire encounter, or until they engage in combat. This can be used at any time, so long as they are not currently engaged in combat. For example, this feature could be used to change their appearance to that of a Gnoll, causing such NPCs to not attack them and move on to other targets. This skill can be used once each reset.
