I love that a subclass could be picked up from two separate classes, almost like a background. Assuming Rogue or Bard, you are looking at a Lore or Valour Bard or (I presume) an Arcane Trickster.·         Good with Razor Blades (or knives)·         Backstreet surgeon and herbal healer·         Sly with persuasion and deception·         Knowledge of lore, gossip, fables and storytelling. So are we looking at good Dex for the blades, good Cha for the storytelling, persuasion and deception and good Int for the lore/knowledge side of things? I suppose you could dip 1 level of life/knowledge Cleric or go fast hands/healer feat human to cover all the bases but an actual subclass would help immensely.  The race screams Variant Human or Half-Elf to both cover the stats, skills and languages if you wanted to optimise If Bard, Charm person/suggestion etc. spells might be ideal What personality traits would you add (especially flaws) Ps. I really hope that Al-Qadim or Dark Sun gets some support soon!</blockquote>
