![]() Rather than gathering and shaping magical energy, the time thief can take, save, change, and deal out slices of time itself. A time thief develops a natural power to alter time, more akin to a dragon’s breath or the ability of fey than to mortal spellcasting. Indeed, while the powers of the time thief are very similar to magic, they are neither arcane nor divine in nature. But it’s clear to anyone who seen a time thief dash past a charging horse, leap onto a narrow ledge, and flip over a guard’s crossbow bolt that a time thief has some kind of temporal power. Most of the time thief's effects are subtle to outside observers, seeming to be more good fortune and preternatural speed than control over time. As her powers grow, the time thief can learn to manipulate bigger slices of time, giving her more options to enhance her actions or even alter the timeline of enemies and allies alike. Mostly she steals boring, unneeded time from her own future, saving tiny split-seconds she can use to make her life easier in the present. The time thief does just what her name suggests: she steals bits of time. This is an adaptation of the Pathfinder class, originally written by Owen K.
