I'm just curious if anyone knows some curses a thief might utter.
Dark -and- empty, I've been running out low on them recently.

candlekeep.com has a nice little theif cant list, for simple innuendos that most wouldn't understand...unless you're from Whitechapel in Victorian London :)

Supposedly it is cross referenced with many sources of real life "theives cant" - I'm not so certain tsr/wotc came out with an official source for that information. I'd love to know if they did though, anyone else...

I know quite a bit of the Cant. Oliver Twist is pretty cool to look at too, if you're searching for that sort of stuff. I was thinking more along the lines of Forgotten Realms and all that jazz though.

What are you looking for exactly. Just small phrases to curse someone? Or like "goodness me!"

I use stuff like:

Swears:
Death and decay
Power and Coruption.
Beshaba's Luck.

Threats:
Swallow a knife, i hate you.
Go hug a kitten. Get fleas, and never sleep again.
I hope you find what your looking for, at the end of my blade.

Taunts:
Run away, Run away. For when I come arround, Death will play.

Thoese what your looking for?

More or less, just oaths you see people muttering when stuffs not going their way.

there is a help swears file or help swear

My favorite on the list is "this stinks of beshaba's breath"

Personally..I like to play the smart arse. I tend to just blow off what some do and act all patronizing to them. It's alot of fun to! I can see people grow agitated and grumble and want to rip off my head! >.>
