[QUOTE="Greg K, post: 8480116, member: 5038"] :( I guess nobody either read or recalled the old Dragon Magazine article, "What Good PCs are Made of" by Katherine Kerr (in issue 96). One of her example characters was both a thief and legitmate daughter of a noble. Ignored by her father, who focused his attention on her older brothers, she developed her initial thieving skills by stealing extra food from the cook and graduated to stealing small valuable objects from noble visitors before running away from an arranged marriage and joining the Thieves' Guild. The character was described as deviousness and relying on her wits (which included the applicaton of her training in social graces as a noble woman and experience living a double life) rather than direct confrontation.
