All of the following are class features of the Thug.

Weapon and Armor Proficiency: A Thug is proficient with light crossbow, hand crossbow, dagger, dart, light mace, sap, shortbow, short sword, club, heavy crossbow, heavy mace, morningstar, quarterstaff, rapiers, and light armor with no shield.

Backstab Ex: Thugs are not as subtle or skilled as rogues, but they still know that the fastest way to a man's heart is through their ribcage. A thug may perform a backstab against an opponent who does not get his Dexterity bonus to AC. This does not include flanked opponents and may not be performed at range. A backstab deals an additional 1d4 points of damage, increasing 1d4 at 5th level and every 5 levels thereafter. All the limits of sneak attacks apply to the backstab ability.

Combat Feat: Thugs lead rough lives. At level 10 a thug may pick one feat from a fighter's list of bonus feats except for weapon specialization. A second feat may be chosen at 20th level.

Special Ability: A thug may choose crippling strike, defensive roll or opportunist from the rogue's list of special abilities.
