Flamboyant Thief

Creature 15 (rare) — human, humanoid

There's no honor among thieves, but if there were points for style, these thieves would have 10s across the board. Some would say flamboyant thieves value showcasing their skills rather than successfully stealing an item, but what better way to show that you're the best than with an audience? In the underbelly of society, the lawless reign supreme.
