Perfect Wight - Epic Prestige Class
This Prestige class uses elements that may not be applicable to the Forgotten Realms Campaign
The perfect wight is a master of skulking, the ultimate prowler and thief She has transcended the extraordinary, honing her talents to supernatural levels. She can bypass any protection and slip through any defense. Few see her coming, and she does not leave evidence of her passing. She quite literally is a shadow in the night.
Only the sneakiest and stealthiest of characters can become a perfect wight, so rogues are the most likely candidates. Assassins sometimes enhance their own skills by spending some time as a perfect wight, although the perfect wight's focus on stealth and evasion comes at the expense of some offensive abilities. Few other classes ever excel at the talents necessary to become perfect wights, although the occasional sorcerer or wizard might find herself in a position to do so.
Perfect wights are true thieves, cat burglars in the extreme. They have heightened the art of breaking and entering to a new level, and they consider it an exciting challenge to test their mettle against the best security the multiverse has to offer. Most operate solo, although some may work with a group or perhaps use their talents to aid in protecting rather than stealing.
