[QUOTE="Painfully, post: 37159, member: 601"] Well, I think I would choose a rogue, in the guise of a bard or wizard. A rogue has built in motivations to stick his nose into things that are none of his business, especially if there is profit in it. The guise of a bard offers a reason to be travelling or just to travel around without suspicion, while the guise of wizard might offer a chance to present yourself as smart and wise among the wealthy before you find a way to rob them. Being a wizard might also prove interesting. You would have access to all sorts of interesting histories and knowledge and your DM might give you leads which you can choose to follow to gain more information and power. Just don't expect to go toe-to-toe without a good henchman to stand in the front line though :-) Frankly, you should be able to choose almost any class you want. It's the DM that will have to be fair enough to offer you something interesting and challenging. I like the idea of being hired by a rich wizard/aristocrat who uses you to retrieve his needed magical components from strange places far away. Once you become strong enough, the wizard might open a gate he's been trying to open for a long time, and then never come back (or not for a while anyway), leaving the PC free to explore, experiment, and dabble in all those forbidden rooms of the wizard's tower. There are lots of things I can think of from a DM's perspective to keep the story alive for a single PC. But if I had to choose one class, it would be rogue. [/QUOTE]
