Shifty puts you through a series of trials to gauge how moxious you are. You steal a wallet from another guild member, swipe a beer from the bar behind the bar (the bar behind the bar growls at you, but you manage to escape), and steal your own pants without alerting yourself. After you finish, Shifty introduces you to a piece of furniture in the corner, which stands up and reveals itself as a very stealthy fellow thief.
“Greetings, adventurer,” he says. “My name is Lefty.” He shakes your hand with the steel hook he has instead of a right hand. He then trains you in the art of mixing flammable beverages, and theaches you art of the Disco Eye‐Poke. You learn that in a fight, a Disco Bandit will strike a pose with one hand pointing straight in the air and the other pointing straight down on the other side, then use the higher hand to viciously poke his (or her) opponent in the eye. That seems like fighting dirty to you, but then you realize that’s exactly the point.
“Congratulations, Disco Bandit,” Lefty says. “Looks like you’re ready to go. If you haven’t seen the Council yet, you should talk to them. They might have a quest for you, hint hint.”
