Thief

Thieves belong to the Vagabonds of Hireath and make their living by stealing it.
== Overview ==
The scourge of traders everywhere. These unscrupulous equines usually commit their crimes alone, without 'backup', but there are reports of thieves banding together to raid well guarded caravans. Thieves range from benign (if sticky-hooved) to outright violent, willing to injure to obtain what they desire.
Thieves, though often solitary, have a long-established subculture that permeates the continents of Hireath. Though relations among thieves tend to be full of well-placed distrust, there are certain secrets shared among this culture of bandits. Safe spots, vantage points, and other useful landmarks are often marked and shared among Thieves, adding up to a secret world known only to them.
== Thieves' Cant ==
Thieves' Cant is a secret language used by the culture of thieves in Hireath. Though not a complete language, Thieves Cant is a complex system of slang and symbols. Its applications are widely varied, but often it is used for marking safe places and profitable trade routes, indicating targets, or planning thefts in the open.
Thieves' Cant can be spoken, written, or signed, and its use is often taught by mentor to trainee or passed down through generations of thieving families. It is a closely-guarded secret, and knowledge of it is often used by thieves to determine the trustworthiness of new acquaintances.
Some examples of words used in Thieves' Cant are: house, caravan, temple, night, morning, fire, knife, hurry, silence, and wait.
