Rogue
|
Using a mix of stealth, speed, and street smarts, the Rogue outmaneuvers enemies and disruptions their flank with hit and run tactics. Ever the pragmatist, a Rogue prefers to leverage their considerable cunning and creativity to solve problems before resorting to brute force. Though they aren't always criminals, Rogues live by their own code with little regard for petty legalities. What is your code? Where did you acquire your deadly skill? Do you have any enemies in the underworld?
