Thief Skills
Thieves have unique skills that improve by level. The Maze Controller rolls all thief skills secretly. Thief skills may be attempted once per situation/encounter. Note
that qualitative role-play for thief skills always precedes the use of quantitative die rolling for task-resolution. A successful roll must be under the percentage indicated.
Pick Pockets: A roll 15% over the thief’s percentage of success alerts the target to the attempt.
Open Locks: A thief requires thieves’ picks and tools to pick a lock. The time to open a lock is subject to the trap type (normally 1 turn).
Find and Remove Traps: A thief must find a trap prior to disarming or removing it. Traps can often be found through careful observation and questioning.
Move Silently: The thief may Move Silently for 40 feet/10 feet per level (per successful attempt).
Hide In Shadows: To perform this skill, the thief must remain motionless while hidden. In battle, a thief may remain hidden for 6 rounds plus one per level
