Rogue
Base Class: Rogue

The power of a Flying Steal Rogue lie in its ability to be hyper mobile in all types of terrain. When in close quarters combat, evasive maneuvers are often employed alongside daggers and other throwable weapons to keep just out of reach of danger while also striking with ferocity. His quick movements and nimble fingers allow the Flying Steal Rogue to throw daggers and retrieve them quickly during the heat of battle. Though swift strikes and retreats are a respectable tactic, a height advantage over opponents is a key aspect of combat that allows for targeted and deadly attacks. Masters of ranged combat, short bows, longbows, and all manners of crossbow are the weapons of choice of the Flying Steal Rogue and precise ranged attacks are where this subclass truly shines. From higher vantage points, the Flying Steal Rogue can identify the weaknesses in armor and other protective capabilities of targets and use the information to place devastating arrows and bolts in the most exposed portions of enemies. 

Sticky Fingers

Fast reaction time allows 10ft of extra speed. This 10ft is not slowed in rough terrain, while climbing, or while swimming. Additionally, the Flying Steal Rogue is quick enough to recover thrown weapons and arrows during combat when coming within 10ft of an enemy who was hit or 5 ft behind an enemy who was fired upon.

Insightful Shot

From above, the Flying Steal Rogue can take time to observe the protections of an enemy and identify weaknesses to exploit. The more perceptive and intelligent, the more reliably the damage will be dealt. Sharing this information with others can aid them in their attacks as well. 

Specialist

Experience with ranged weapons has given insight into new and unique uses. Holding arrows in the draw hand allows multiple arrows to be fired in a single turn. Utilizing loosened arrowheads alongside the draw-strength of a longbow allows an arrow to strike its target and the arrow head to continue past it. Unique crossbow bolts that pierce or bludgeon can be selected to best address the enemies. With throwing dagger experience comes swifter throwing and better precision that causes more damage to enemies. 

Thief's Jitters

Spending extensive time training with ranged weapons has familiarized the Flying Steal Rogue with flight paths and velocities. He is more successful at evading ranged attacks. Additionally, the Flying Steal Rogue is constantly on edge and wary of others, leading him to be suspicious of their intentions.

Opportunistic

Years of experience in attacking from the shadows has brought a sense of focus and serenity to the Flying Steal Rogue in these situations.
