A really first-class and legendary burglar would at this point have picked the trolls' pockets– it is nearly always worth while, if you can manage it–, pinched the very mutton off the spits, purloined the beer, and walked off without their noticing him. Others more practical but with less professional pride would perhaps have stuck a dagger into each of them before they observed it. – J.R.R. Tolkien, "The Hobbit".
Summary
A master of tricks and bewilderment, the Burglar excels at evading the ire of their enemies. They rely on their mastery of Stealth to remain unseen, using their array of Tricks to confuse and weaken their foes. Preferring to attack from behind, the Burglar is learned in the art of twisting their enemy's will to yield to their own. They draw their strength from revealing an enemy's weaknesses and exploiting their openings to their fullest advantage. Additionally, the Burglar demonstrates great prowess in the art of Crowd Control, enabling them to mesmerize enemies considerably, buying them and their Fellowship ample time to devise their next move. Most importantly, the Burglar is the only member of a Fellowship that can forcefully initiate a Fellowship Maneuver: a special chaining sequence that provides unique Fellowship-wide benefits. While quite adept at standing toe-to-toe with their enemies, the Burglar thrives most in the company of more provocative Fellows, allowing them to bide their time, slowly bringing their opponent to his knees.
