#1531, "Thief Edges! Recognize."


          

Around 60 or so new edges are live. Most of these are for thieves, although a few are open to other classes as well. At least one new general edge that's more anti-thief joins the crowd as well...

No helpfiles exist yet, so, buyer beware. I'll start writing the helpfiles now, roughly in the order they're listed below. This list is also available as 'help thief edge list'.

#1543, "What no bdsm edge for binders? :)"

... combines speedy tying with a light spanking and humiliation to lower morale, unless of course the victim has the masochist edge?? *rofl*

Seriously though, if I had the heart to play another thief so soon, I'd be rollin' one up right now just to play with these.
I've had a highwayman role waiting in the wings for YEARS that I never played, and now you have an edge for it... guess it's time to do a search for that file eh? haha.
As my daughter would say this new stuff is awesomeful.

Helpfiles should be there now. I've made an effort at making them generally more clear and helpful this time around. No, stop laughing.

Probably more edges in this group were influenced by player suggestions than any before, so thank you for your ideas. I drew a lot of inspiration from edge ideas posted by WildGirl and others, and these to a large degree started the thief edge ball rolling and resulted in us dreaming up the other ideas.

You'll note that some of these edges require you to be a combination of paths that you'd probably otherwise never consider playing. This is, of course, intentional and was really one of the major inspirations for creating edges; if we can use edges to make something like a d-elf conjurer viable and interesting in some way instead of being purely terrible, surely we can do the same thing for the hybrid poisoner/trapper thief.

That's all I have at the moment. Enjoy!
