The power to utilize practices that are larcenous in nature. Variation of Supernatural Arts. Not to be confused with Absorption Arts.
Also Called[]
- Larcenous/Larceny/Stealing Arts/Techniques
- Theft/Thievery Arts/Techniques
Capabilities[]
The user can utilize the Thief Arts, a specialized system of techniques based around larcenous power. Theft is one of the most common crimes. Normally, this illegal activity results in the physical acquisition of objects. It already requires certain skills to effectively take from others without detection and/or consequence; however, with special training, one can take on unique abilities that go beyond mere appropriation. One could instantly gain mastery over whatever is taken, allowing one to expertly wield it for whatever offensive, defensive or supportive end. Users can take immaterial aspects like memories, souls or superhuman powers or skills from their targets. At the highest levels, one could even claim a victim’s existence, becoming whoever or whatever they wish.
