If we look at a theif in real life then if they fail they usually flee or shoot the place up. Since you can't shoot place up in CF, wouldn't it be more likely that the theif would have some sort of skill that allows him to get the hell outta dodge?
So a skill like I don't know, maybe called swift of feet. This skill would allow them for a short amount of time run like the wind and rooms would only cost 1/2 a movement point per move. So that it couldn't be abused swift of feet would only work after half your HP is gone and would only last till your HP got back above 1/2 or something like that.
Maybe at high high levels they could get a skill call Hunt down, so that if the person they knife runs they instantly run after that person with a small chance of catching them... say 50/50 chance at 100% or something like that.
I'll put the crack pipe down now... you can all flame away now. But remember I'm still a newbie and have never played a theif so don't blame me too much if my ideas suck big fat ass
