"Away with ye, I've no time for any more commissions. I'm off to the wars tomorrow morning. Oh, I see you've come not for scouting, but for a Scout. Well, let's see your paces, then I'll know what I can teach you ..."

Most consider Rogues creatures of civilization, but there are some among their ranks who almost never venture into a city or town, specializing in reconnaissance instead of burglary or murder. Anyone looking to find an ancient ruin or wage war in rough country will need a guide through the wilderness, someone who can find their way through forest or fog and spy out the movements of enemies. The are some among the Rogues who will eagerly provide all of these services... for a price. A keen eye, nimble foot, and silent tread: the traditional talents of the Rogue can prove quite valuable in the wild, and Scouts have them in abundance.
