|  With this incredible feat of manual dexterity, the thief appears to  |
|  be handing the victim a certain amount of a type of coin, but in the |
|  process skims some of it back into his or her own purse.  The        |
|  percentage of coin the thief can skim is equal to their theft skill, |
|  plus 10 %. There is a chance of failure, of course, which depends    |
|  upon guild level and skill among other factors.                      |
|                                                                       |
|  Example: skim 100 falcon by 50 to pulsar                             |
|                                                                       |
|  This would appear to give 100 falcon to Pulsar, though actually only |
|  give 50.  Of course, for a factor of 50, you would have to be a      |
|  master thief!                                                        |
