-====== Rogue ======
-//"Cleverness and guile can be as deadly as any blade in the right hands.  Meaning mine."//
-Not every adventurer is a combatant.  There is a place for the skilled, stealthy approach.  The Rogue is a talented character class, with a wide range of abilities that allow them to infiltrate, suborn and disable an area's defences.
-Of course, when combat does break out, the Rogue is far from the worst in battle.  They rely on stealth and dirty tricks, rather than straight man-to-man combat.  But it makes little difference to the foe whether they were hacked into bits by a Warrior, or knifed in the back by a Rogue.  Either way, they're still dead.
-That being said, the Rogue's focus is on weakening, misdirecting or debilitating their foes, not in outright slaughter.  If forced into face-to-face battle, the Rogue has little chance of surviving.  Luckily, there is always some way for the Rogue to slip away.

-===== Attributes =====
-When you select Rogue as your class, increase your Dexterity score by +1.  When you select your Scheme, it will direct you to improve another attribute as well.
-===== Stamina =====
-When you select the Rogue as your class, increase your maximum [[unbound:characters:statistics#stamina]] by fifteen, plus five times your Body score.  Your [[unbound:characters:statistics#recoveries]] are equal to your Body plus four.
-===== Training =====
-You receive one training rank in each of the following skills:  [[unbound:skills:blades|Blades]], [[unbound:skills:sleightofhand|Sleight of Hand]], [[unbound:skills:stealth|Stealth]].  Choose five skills, plus a number equal to your Education bonus.  Each chosen skill receives one training rank as well.
-===== Defences =====
-Add your level to your Agility and Dexterity defences.
-===== Basic Attacks =====
-The Rogue's capabilities in combat are not as strong, by default, as many other classes.  However, many of their features grant improvements and benefits to their base attacks, rather than adding new attacks entirely.
-**Melee**:  Skill vs. Agility.
-  * **Hit**:  2[W] + Body damage.  Increases to 3[W] + Body at Level 4.
-  * **Miss**:  1[W] + Body damage.
-**Ranged**:  Skill vs. Agility.
-  * **Hit**:  2[W] + Dexterity damage.  Increases to 3[W] + Dexterity at Level 4.
-  * **Miss**:  1[W] + Dexterity damage.
-===== Focus =====
-A Rogue is able to influence the battlefield by making subtle, tactical strikes designed to disrupt their foes.  At the start of each of their turns, the Rogue gains one point of Focus, to a maximum equal to their Level.  At the start of an encounter, the Rogue will have Focus points equal to their Victories.
-When the Rogue strikes a foe and inflicts damage, they may expend one point of Focus.  If they do so, the target that they struck becomes [[unbound:conditions:dazed|Dazed]] until the end of that target's next turn.
-===== Scheme =====
-Every Rogue has their own methodology.  Some prefer to use their stealth;  some use their charm;  still others get by on their cleverness.  Choose one of the following schemes.
-==== Mastermind ====
-The Mastermind relies on intellect and strategic planning to control the battlefield. They analyze enemy weaknesses, coordinate allies for optimal positioning, and execute precise strikes to exploit vulnerabilities. Their tactical insight and calculated approach make them invaluable leaders in any conflict.
-Increase your Education by +1.  Choose one of the following features and add it to your character:  [[~:Exploit Weakness]], [[~:Trap Layer]].
-==== Padfoot ====
-The Padfoot is a master of stealth and subterfuge, excelling in infiltration and sabotage. They move unseen through shadows, creating illusions to confuse enemies, and quietly dismantle obstacles in their path. With their silent approach and subtle manipulation, they are the ultimate agents of chaos and disruption.
-Increase your Agility by +1.  Choose one of the following features and add it to your character:  [[~:Sneak Attack]], [[~:Stealth Expert]].
-==== Scoundrel ====
-The Scoundrel specializes in deception and intimidation, using their charisma and cunning to distract and manipulate enemies. They excel at drawing attention away from allies, feigning vulnerability to lure foes into traps, and disorienting opponents with dazzling displays of misdirection.
-Increase your Charisma by +1.  Choose one of the following features and add it to your character:  [[~:Disorienting Taunt]], [[~:Distraction]], [[~:Draw Them In]].
-===== Hybrid Rogues =====
-If you select the Rogue as a Hybrid Class, you gain their Focus feature.
