Footpad

A thief that preys on travelers and adventurers, making their living off the money and goods they steal from them. Most of them belong to bands of thieves, and act in accordance to the order of outlaws. They are very cautious, and will set up bases deep in the forest or desert where monsters often roam. Upon doing so, they survey their surroundings in order to secure safe path in and out. Any soldiers who dare go after these thieves cannot do so without first taking out the hordes of monsters that serve as their natural gate keepers.
