Athas is a world of intrigue and treachery, of shady deals and secretive organizations. It's a rogue's paradise. Beyond the cities, among the wasteland tribes and villages, thieves live by their wits. Within the secure walls of the city states, many typically roguish occupations have become institutions unto themselves. Rogues have become pawns of the wealthy, deployed in deadly games of deceit between noble families.

|
|
Athasian rogues run the gamut of society. They range from guttersnipes who prey upon the merchants and freemen of the cities to vagabonds who steal what they can from passing caravans or merchant trains. At their best, thieves can be in the employ of the nobility, plying their trade by contract in the name of a royal household or noble do-gooders who seek to steal only from the corrupt and wealthy.

Rogue Illusionists: All bards & rogues gain the ability to cast spells from the illusionist school when they attain 21st level. They are essentially wizards, specifically preservers, with the usual restrictions for spell books and memorization. They are not specialist mages, so they do not gain the specialist advantages.
|
|
|
|
All spellcasting rules that apply to wizards also apply to rogues. They use components, memorize new spells out of their own spell books, and so on. Rogue illusionists are preservers. They do not cause defiling damage when they cast their spells.
