Gray Disciple
From Paradox Haze
[edit] Gray Disciple
Gray Disciples are followers of the way of the ancient Hero, the White Lord. Like their master, they're cunning thieves and acrobats, and deadly with two daggers, spears, or scythes. Most of the other hero-disciplines think the Gray Disciples to be mere rogues; this isn't too far from the truth. Gray Disciples, while cunning, are not warriors.
Gray Disciples are probably the fewest in number of any of the disciplines; they also tend to work the most independently. They tend to be humans living in large cities in Soathon, but because of their natural will to travel, they've spread over more than than the other disciplines.
They multiclass well with Wind-Callers, using their powers to improve their stealth.
