Magus spellthief archetype request


Homebrew and House Rules


Hey everyone,
I feel as it is Pathfinder can fill just about any fantasy role with their classes. That being said I have always enjoyed what the spellthief represents (even if the mechanics were sort of meh) I was curious if anyone would be interested in drumming up a spellthief archetype for the Magus.

(For those not in the know, the spellthief was basically a rogue that recieved their sneak attack slower but in place was able to cast very few spells, their key ability was being able to steal spells, SLA, etc. to recharge their own spells or to use on their own)

I'll play around with this today and see what I come up with. It's an archetype that would definitely make sense for the Magus.


Well, the Sandman already does this...

That archetype does steal spells, but I think a Magus archetype that steals spell levels from casters and adds them to his Arcane Pool, and then can do fun things with those points might be warranted.
