Quintessential I 02: Rogue (d20)
Dem Schurken kann man mit dieser Regel und Ideen-Sammlung mehr Tiefe verleihen (128 S. für 25 Euro)
Mongoose Publishing konzentriert sich mit seiner 'Quintessential'-D20-Reihe jeweils auf eine Klasse und imitiert damit die alten 'Alles über...'-TSR- Bände für AD&D. Nach 'Quintessential Fighter' erscheint bald der Band 'Quintessential Rogue'¸ der alle Informationen über die Klasse 'Rogue' (in etwa 'Schurke') versammelt und mit neuen Fertigkeiten¸ Pestigeklassen etc. erweitert.
Collector Series Book 2.
The steely-eyed assassin clutching a serrated dagger that drips with fresh venom. The grey bearded old dwarf prospector with an eye for traps and a nose for trouble. The halfling businessman¸ ready to sell his own daughter for the right price and willing to slip his dagger between your ribs if you turn your back on him. The high society darling¸ belle of the evening ball¸ but at the stroke of midnight this lady turns into the masked Rooftop Marauder. All these are examples of rogues¸ the most flexible class available in the core d20 rules. The Quintessential Rogue is a sourcebook that greatly expands the gaming horizon available to this class. Rogues have always relied on the wits and resourcefulness¸ and now find rules for pursuing such roguish behaviours as inventing a new poison¸ setting a trap to catch your enemies¸ or founding a criminal empire that grows to span an entire continent.

- Character Concepts

- Tricks of the Trade
- Feats

The Quintessential Rogue provides a wealth of new options and rules anyone player who loves playing a more subtle character. In previous editions of the game¸ rogues occupied a narrow niche as thieves¸ burglars¸ or footpads. Now¸ with the advent of the d20 system¸ the rogue covers a huge array of spies¸ scouts¸ explorers¸ and other exciting new roles. The Quintessential Rogue examines this new definition of rogues in detail.
