Some rogues follow a path of thievery, to slate their desire for riches or fortune. Others take their skills to the more drastic end of assassination, fulfilling contracts for coin to make a living. But, even for rogues, there are some paths even they fear to come across, some contracts that you must avoid interfering with. Usually their victims are the ones who fear going out at night, but if they are trying to steal from a competitor, or out on a hunt and feel a gentle breeze graze across their hoods, even the most fearless of these thieves and assassins will freeze for a moment, wondering if it will be their last.

There is never a sound, never a weapon left behind, just a look of fear and a withered husk. It's said that the last thing that they hear before they have the life siphoned out of their bodies, is a whisper.

Restriction: Air Genasi Only
