|  This is the premier offensive attack of the thief.  The thief        |
|  uses his powers of stealth, surprise, and treachery to strike a      |
|  horrible blow to an unprotected portion of the victim's body.        |
|  The chance of success and the damage done is a result of many        |
|  skills and attributes, reduced by the abilities of your victim,      |
|  and enhanced greatly if you are hidden in shadows.  You must be      |
|  wielding a bladed weapon in order to perform a backstab.             |
|                                                                       |
|  With every backstab, there is a chance that the thief can target a   |
|  vital organ, and instantly kill the victim.  It is very important to |
|  note that in the cold dark months of Snowmarch and Argentwood,       |
|  thieves have been known to experience greater success with their     |
|  backstab abilities, especially in their chance for an instant kill.  |
