"Benefit: A rogue with this talent gains a small ki pool. This ki pool is similar to a ninja’s ki pool, but the rogue’s ki pool does not grant any extra attacks. The rogue gains a number of ki points equal to her Wisdom modifier (minimum 1). These ki points replenish at the start of each day. If she already has a ki pool, or gains a ki pool later, she gains half her Wisdom bonus (minimum 1) as bonus ki points to her ki pool. She can spend a ki point to gain a +10-foot bonus to movement until the end of her turn."
When it says that it works similar to a ninja's ki pool, does that mean it come with Ki Jump (Running Start) and Ki stealth, but no extra attack and no full +20' movement, or do I just get the ki pool so I can take some of the ninja traits?
It also gives you access to abundant step if you multiclass with the Martial Artist archetype and access to a few feats.
So do I get the ability to get the +4 to stealth and the jumping with running start without running start?
Yep, you get everything but the extra attack.
Thank you

Another question about Rogue Talent: Ki Pool...
Let's say I make a ninja, and take the Rogue Talent for Ki Pool instead the normal Ninja Trick (because according to RAW, I can)
Does this choice qualify for me to decide whether I want to use my character's wisdom or charisma as the ability for the Ki Pool to draw power from, without actually multiclassing to another class?
If so, and if I chose Wisdom, would I also get the bonus Ki points per half my Wisdom modifier, in addition to the normal points granted by Wisdom in the first place, due to what it says in the Talent about having a ki pool already or getting one later?
Logically I wouldn't see a problem in this, that would basically make the said talent work like a talent for bonus ki points. But likewise, logically wood should be burnt by fire, and it doesn't in D&D because Hardness prevents it... Anyway, what I mean, is that logic rarely meets the Rules As Written, and I wonder if this option would make an exception to that?
