About this class
A creature of instinct, cunning, and conditioning, you live by reward and thrive on opportunity. Whether trained under careful guidance or acting on your own clever impulses, every trick you perform is a calculated exchange—effort for reward, risk for gain. Some like you dazzle crowds with practiced routines, while others slip through shadows, taking what they please. In the end, it’s all the same: you act, and you are rewarded.
