When they surprise an enemy they can make an ambush attack if wielding a one-handed melee weapon. This ambush attack gains a +4 bonus to hit (instead of the normal +2 bonus against surprised targets) and deals double the weapon damage dice. At higher levels, this damage increases. The rogue uses an agile fighting style, granting a +2 bonus to his AC when wearing light or no armour and while unencumbered. Their reflexes are such that they also gain this bonus to saving throws where agility might play a part, such as dodging a pitfall. As warriors, rogues may specialise in a weapon group or fighting style. They may not gain mastery or higher skill unless a particular kit allows it. They gain two weapon slots at 1st level, and an additional slot for every three levels (3, 6, 9, etc). Rogues may cleave. If they down a foe with an attack, rogues can make an immediate attack against another enemy. They may make a number of these attacks equal to their level moving no more than 5 feet between each attack. Name LevelAt name level, the notoriety of the rogue is enough that he can set himself up as head of an organisation and gain followers. Depending on how the Rogue has been played, some ideas are below:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Lord. The rogue     gains a position in the local bureaucracy, such as becoming a baron.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Bandit King. The     rogue gains the following of a group of bandits, maybe after slaying the     last bandit king in single combat.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Grandfather of     Assassins. The rogue founds an assassin hideout, often in an out of the     way location, where he begins training followers.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Head of a Thieves     Guild. The rogue founds a thieves guild in a large town or city.</li> </ul> Ideally careers should supplement the holding, so a career of Assassin should be one of the rogue's careers when forming an assassin hideout.</blockquote>
