[UA] Speaking of Stealing Things...

Here's something for your consideration and theft. :)

Dunno if you all are much familiar with the Dungeons &
Dragons setting of Ravenloft (*dodges the stones for
mentioning D&D*), but there is a character mentioned
in the novel Spectre of the Black Rose that is sort of
UA appropriate. 

He is called The Bloody Cobbler.  What he does is kill
old people who didn't follow their calling, and cut
the soles from their feet.  Then he finds young people
who are on "the wrong path," and sews the dead flesh
of his victims to their feet.  The end result is a
sort of instant trip through the room of Renunciation,
in that they get re-focused on whatever the other
person was focused on, and end up with their skills at
certain things, etc.

For example, the guy in the book who was killed was a
spy, and he should have been a baker or something (I
don't really remember, it's been years since I've read
it).  The Cobbler kills him and sews his soles onto
another character, who ends up with the guys fighting
and persuasive skills, etc.  

Discuss!
