Rogue Class Campaign.
Class Hall - The Spider's Web
The Spider's Web is a series of secret tunnels underneath Doorward that lead all over the Spider Kingdom. Nerubians work with rogues here. Campaign involves a precise series of thefts, assassinations, and sabotage missions that other classes encounter over time, including recovering a fragment of the Eye of Nerub from a heavily guarded aqir stronghold. The ultimate enemy is the shadowy arach'layn swordsmaster Zephon the Venomous, who clashes with the rogue on more than one occasion.
Class Hall Special Benefits
Rogue's get special fast-travel system using their secret tunnels. Rogues can also find special locked treasure that only they can access. Sometimes stealing the treasure will summon vicious defenders - slaying them could be even more rewarding.

Campaign Storyline
Campaign involves a precise series of thefts, assassinations, and sabotage missions that other classes encounter over time, including recovering a fragment of the Eye of Nerub from a heavily guarded aqir stronghold. The ultimate enemy is the shadowy eldre'layn swordsmaster Zephon the Venomous, who clashes with the rogue on more than one occasion. Rogues also steal the fragments of the Eye of Nerub from Doorward, the same fragments they and other players recovered from various dungeons during the main game storyline and turn over to the Doorward leaders for safekeeping. Rogues must eventually purge the organization of its very founders when the nerubians turn on them, leaving them in control of the Spider's Web and in possession of the Eye of Nerub, events which will have ramifications for the main story beyond the initial X.0 storyline.
Beyond X.1
The rogues learn that an enemy thought destroyed has survived and seeks to hide in the shadows and rebuilds its power. This must not be allowed. An elaborate campaign of assassination and sabotage must be undertaken to ensure that the enemy is truly dispatched.
