Page 296 — Elusive's Eleven
I could spout exposition all day about Elusive and the Thieves Guild, honestly. It actually made writing this page's dialogue a serious challenge, because I had to limit how much information I was trying to cram into it.
Transcript:Applejack: Look, is there any way we can find out what Celestia’s reaction might be?
DM: To Rarity secretly being a career thief? …You can roll a History check.
Applejack: <roll> Got a 21.
DM: Ever since the Equestrian Thieves Guild was founded, Celestia and her guards have been doing everything they can to shut it down. They haven’t been very successful. Its founder, a pony known only as the “Invisible Thief,” was the culprit of a series of high-profile heists for which he or she was never caught. The Princess herself was one of the victims, though she never disclosed to the public what the Invisible Thief had stolen from her. Regardless, that legendary crime spree inspired a whole new generation of professional criminals.
Applejack: So… she’s not exactly a friend to thieves everywhere, then.
DM: I’m afraid not.
