Thief

The Thief is the fastest class in the game with SPD+4, and it's built around the backstab mechanic: attacks from behind ignore shields and deal bonus damage, with Assassinate pushing crit chance to 50–100% from flanking positions. The Nail Throw basic attack provides straight-line ranged coverage at range 3 for turns when melee positioning isn't safe. A coin economy running through Cut Purse and Coin Toss creates a resource loop that converts gold into movement or stats, and abilities like Blur and Fade offer strong evasion. CON-1 and STR-1 make the Thief fragile and light-hitting unless it's consistently attacking from the right angles — the class rewards deliberate positioning and punishes getting caught in a straight fight.
