Sticky Glove

Sticky Glove is a Special Ability in Streets of Rogue used by the Thief. Using the ability in melee range of any NPC to steal an item from their inventory (same as the items they drop on being killed). This ability can be used in quick succession (determined by melee speed). Items will be stolen one at a time. The attempt is guaranteed to succeed, providing the NPC still has items. "Empty" will appear if the target doesn't have any items to steal. Stealing is silent, but anyone witnessing the action will see it as a Hostile action and will react accordingly. However, a victim witnessing your stealing attempt will immediately become Hostile.
