Rogue
Rogues are scoundrels, often in both attitude and practice. Broadly known as liars and thieves, the best among this class move through the world entirely unknown. Utilizing their sharp wit and blade, rogues may trick their foes through social manipulation as easily as breaking locks or climbing through windows. Members of this class are masters of magical craft, adding an array of deadly tools to their arsenal. Rogues frequently establish guilds to meet future accomplices, hire out jobs, and hone heavily-guarded skills, proving that the phrase “there’s no honor among thieves” is just another lie added to their arsenal.
Class Features
Rogue's Hope
Spend three Hope to increase your Sneak Attack damage. Until your next short rest, you add 3d6 instead of 1d6 to each Sneak Attack damage roll.
Hide
When you move into a location where no enemies can see you, you can use an action to become Hidden (any rolls against you have disadvantage). As a Rogue, when you are Hidden, targets also can’t see you, even if they move into line of sight. You are no longer Hidden after you move or attack.
Sneak Attack
Whenever you make an attack while you are Hidden or while an ally is in Melee with your target, add a d6 to your damage roll. When you use Sneak Attack, you can also spend any number of Hope before the attack roll, then if the attack is successful, also add a number of d6 equal to the Hope spent.

Adrenaline: When you are Vulnerable, you always add your Level to your damage roll total.

Once per session, you can briefly call forth a shady contact. Immediately choose one of the benefits below and describe what brought them here to help you in this moment:
- They provide 1 handful of gold, a unique tool, or a mundane object that the situation requires.
