Class Features

Weapon and Armor Proficiency: Shadow thieves of Amn gain proficiency with all simple weapons and with light armor. Armor check penalties for armor heavier than leather apply to the skills Balance, Climb, Escape Artist, Hide, Jump, Move Silently, Sleight of Hand, and Tumble, and double the normal armor check penalty applies to Swim checks.

Doublespeak (Ex): A shadow thief of Amn is adept at talking her way out of tight places. At 1st level, she gains a +2 bonus on all Bluff and Diplomacy checks.

Sneak Attack (Ex): This ability functions like the rogue ability of the same name. The extra damage dealt increases by 1d6 points at 1st level, by another 1d6 points at 3rd level, and another 1d6 points at 5th level. If a shadow thief of Amn gets a sneak attack bonus from another source (such as rogue levels) the bonuses on damage stack. Furthermore, shadow thief of Amn levels stack with any other appropriate class levels (such as rogue or assassin) for the purpose of overcoming improved uncanny dodge.

Bonus Feat: At 2nd level and again at 4th level, a shadow thief of Amn gains a bonus feat of her choice from the following list: Acrobatic, Agile, Alertness, Blind-Fight, Combat Expertise, Deceitful, Deft Hands, Exotic Weapon Proficiency (hand crossbow or shuriken), Improved Feint, Leadership, Lightning Reflexes, Negotiator, Nimble Fingers, Persuasive, Track, Skill Focus (any guild thief class skill), Silent Spell, Stealthy, Still Spell, Weapon Finesse, Weapon Focus (any). She must meet any prerequisites for a feat in order to select it.

Uncanny Dodge (Ex): At 2nd level, a shadow thief of Amn gains the ability to react to danger before her senses would normally allow her to even be aware of it. She retains her Dexterity bonus to AC (if any) regardless of being caught flat-footed or struck by an invisible attacker. (She still loses any Dexterity bonus to AC if immobilized.) If a shadow thief of Amn already has the uncanny dodge ability from another class, she gains improved uncanny dodge (see the rogue class description in the Player's Handbook) instead.

Reputation (Ex): By the time she reaches 3rd level, a shadow thief's infamy grants her a +1 bonus to her Leadership score (see the Leadership feat description on page 106 of the Dungeon Master's Guide). This bonus increases to +2 at 4th level and to +3 at 5th level. Usually, a shadow thief of Amn who has an interest in collecting followers maintains a permanent base of operations within a city, which gives her an additional +2 bonus to her Leadership score.

Improved Uncanny Dodge (Ex): At 5th level, a shadow thief of Amn can no longer be flanked, since she can react to opponents on opposite sides of her as easily as she can react to a single attacker. This defense denies rogues the ability to use flank attacks to sneak attack the shadow thief of Amn. The exception to this defense is that a rogue at least four levels higher than the shadow thief can flank her (and thus sneak attack her).

If the shadow thief of Amn already has improved uncanny dodge, the levels from any other classes granting uncanny dodge stack for the purpose of determining the minimum rogue level required to flank her.
