Legerdemain: quick, think of a better name!

AssaultLemming

So I really am not a fan of the name of the outlaw skill tree name, let's see if we can think of a better name! Post your suggestion below. If you like someone else's suggestion give them an agree, if you really really like it give them an awesome! Maybe I will make a poll with the top 5 suggestions. An awesome is worth 3 agrees.

Why not just call it "outlaw", arent we pretty sure that the enforcer tree will just be called "enforcer"?

I like it.

"Sleight of Hand" would be nice.

Legerdemain actually means "using your hands to perform magic trick"

Although it comes from the french where "Leger de main" means light of hand. So it kinda fits with my Breton since they have some French touch.

Somehow all I can think is, "I can make this pencil disappear."

It's a magic trick. You're magicking their stuff into your pockets.

Wasn't Legerdemain one of the skills in the Wizardry RPG series of old? Then I would very much like to have a Ninjutsu skill tree as well.

Legerdemain is a perfectly good skill for rouges, scoundrels and general ne'erdowells to have

...especially since "sleight of hand" is more associated with pickpocketing, thus using a less known denominator for the whole skill line makes sense. And makes it sounds more fashionable then just "mad crime skillz"

Or more likely it's because it's just a clumsy, even superfluous choice of word for a very simple mmo

Edit: The fact people have to look this word up to find out what it means pretty much says it all.

No, I was actually familiar with it going in. It's archaic, but not completely inappropriate given the pseudo-medieval setting.
