Meet the Thief

Type - Offensive
Speed - About the same as scout
Health - 100
Appearance - Hispanic, ragged clothes, sort of goatee thing going on, and a load of knive compartments
Voice - Mexican accent
Primary Weapon - Filtching Rifle; aim it at an enemy and shoot and they lose their primary weapon. A shot to the head will make them drop all their weapons besides for the melee weapon. An extremely short ranged weapon, you'll most likely have to sneak in rather close to get a good shot in. Also does minimal damage to the enemy and can drain health and ammo to you if within range. Can also be used to drain enemy Engineer bolts and restock your own team.
Secondary Weapon - Semi-automatic rifle, good for close to medium range.
Melee Weapon - Dagger, instant kill from behind and does a great deal of damage from the side as well.

So he's basically a Spy/Scout baby who is called a Thief but does not actually thieve things?

He steals health, ammo, and metal. I though about stealing weapons but it appears someone else already did that anyway.

dude, that's freaking ridiculous.  you can easily sneak up to those candles and snuff them manually without wasting a water arrow.  in fact, this is in the streets - meaning that unless you've been running around and acting the fool, you can just walk up to the counter, snuff the candles, then gank the coins under cover of darkness, right in front of him!



anyway, as far as the thief class goes:  the weapon/ammo stealing idea is interesting, but other than that he seems like a watered-down spy, what with the headshotting primary and the backstab, but without the ability to cloak.  plus, having only 100 health means that he can be 1-shotted by scouts, demomen, and soldiers.
