Choose the Khajiit race for a character best suited to sneaking around the dark alleys of Oblivion. The Khajiit offers players a +10 bonus in Agility, Acrobatic and Hand-to-Hand; a +5 bonus on Athletics, Blade, Light Armor, Security and Sneak but also gives a -10 penalty in Willpower and/or Strenth/Endurance depending on gender. However, the Khajiit's best asset is it's unlimited Nighteye ability, making navigating dark dungeons and basements possible without the aid of torches, which lower your Sneak.

Tips & Warnings
Don't rob beggars. They're your eyes and ears and can help you find the best loot in towns.
Keep a good stock of lockpicks, they are easy to break. As you become better at picking locks, you can carry fewer.

Why do you use blade and not markman when your major attribute is agility?
