Aspects of Thievery
Day 19 of Winter Cloak of the year 297

---

Possessions
One of the more obvious aspects of Thievery. Defined most simply as the reclaiming of items from another, be it off their person in a crowd or from their home while they sleep, oblivious to the movements around them. Followers of Thievery have mastered their skills, developed them to such perfection that they have been heard to be caught on purpose, otherwise, they never would be. Rumors are even spreading of Immortals "misplacing" objects, and later finding them in the possession of followers of this path.

Emotional
A more devious aspect, requiring many talents in speechcraft and use of cunning and guile. Thievery followers are almost always involved in politics, manipulating people behind the scenes by way of their passion and hatred. If a king who taxes goods too heavily suddenly is deposed, it's a good bet that one of Thievery's followers was involved. Also applies to taking joy from people, stealing hearts of women and men. Some of the more devoted members of this following will even steal sadness from unhappy people.

Being
The most serious of the aspects, this means assuming anothers identity with such perfection that even lower gods can be fooled. This also can be stealing another persons life, be it via poison or physical act of violence. Followers train their bodies and steel their minds to act and react instantly, and without remorse. And though no member has yet fully perfected it, theoretically stealing someones soul would fall under this aspect.
