Thievery: She's just borrowing it! Really!
-Allows Ariannah to break/pick locks easily. Challenge is 1/2 Lock Strength vs. Intellect + 1/2 Speed.
-In addition, for 2 MP, she can, with the aid of magic, cloak, hiding herself from enemies until she attacks or opens a lock or door. This cloak lasts 3 rounds.
Static Shock: (1 MP, KNF) Ariannah magically charges her knife with electricity. Normal damage, changes damage type to Lightning.
Electrify Kisses: (2 MP) Despite the name, this spell does not involve zappy kisses at all. Two attacks, each dealing INT electric damage.
Backstab: (3 MP, KNF) Catching enemies unaware is easy for Ariannah. It's even easier when she's working with a distracted enemy. Deal (normal damage)x2 damage. Costs no MP if you pin the enemy with another ally.
Sneak Attack: (4 MP, BOW) Nothing says "Surprise" like an arrow to the face. Ariannah fires a projectile at an unsuspecting enemy, allowing you to ignore their dodge and (M)defense. You must be cloaked to use this.
Backblast: (6 MP) Ariannah flings a very fast ball of flame at an enemy, dealing Intellect fire damage and knocking the enemy back one square.
Flare: (6 MP, BOW) An arrow, magically enchanted to explode in a bright-burning light. When out of sight of any enemies, the arrow can be fired upwards as a signal, drawing enemies towards where you fired. Alternatively, it can be used to deal no damage but blind one enemy (-100% to hit) for one turn.
Disarm: (8 MP) Have you ever tried knocking a weapon out of someone's hands? It's harder than it looks, but sometimes it's so, so worth it. Ariannah can only disarm and take a weapon if she has higher speed+luck than her enemy's strength+2x Weapon Power.
Filch: (2 MP) Swift hands and a lot of practice prove to be- hey, where did my wallet go? If your speed is higher than an enemy's, you may steal 8 + level gold pieces from them once.
Pinning Shot: (5 MP, BOW) A projectile that is shot at an enemy's limbs, causing them to stagger. Normal damage, lowers enemy movement by two for three turns.
Lightning Bolt: (6 MP) Crackling lightning that deals INT + 8 electric damage to an enemy.
Opportunity: (7 MP, KNF) A terrifyingly quick attack that comes from out of nowhere. Must be cloaked: Ariannah can blink three squares in any direction and attack an enemy three times for normal damage + luck damage.
Enhanced Stealth: (Passive) More practice with her "practical" magic allows Ariannah to use only 1 MP to cloak and stay cloaked after opening locks.
Firecracker: (12 MP, BOW) A perfectly normal enchanted arrow, until it hits the floor near somebody and explodes. Deals Intellect + 8 fire damage to all enemies in a 2x2 area.
Slaying Arrow: (13 MP, BOW) A fatal shot, using nothing but surprise and a good eye. An instant critical hit that ignores defense, but can only be used when cloaked.
