The World of Warcraft
Rogue
These are the folks responsible for the saying, "danger lurks in every shadow."

"Trudge and I play hide-and-seek sometimes... after I've made a fresh batch of ale, sometimes I hide it in the city to keep him from breaking the fragile inventions in my lab... Luckily, both Gnomes and Dwarves are skilled Rogues." -Nettles
Skills and Abilities

Backstab:
Sneak up behind an opponent and deal a deadly blow.

Critical Strike:
Focus your attack on a vulnerable area.

Disable Lock:
A Rogue can pick a lock to get inside sealed doors or locked crates.

Detect Stealth:
Being a master of stealth themselves, Rogues have the ability to spot others hidden around them as well.

Dual Wield:
Ability to wield a weapon in either/both hands.

Evasion:
Ability to dodge incoming attacks.

Stealth:
Blend into the shadows to become invisible to friends and foes alike.

Strengths
A Rogue is capable of dealing tremendous amounts of damage in just a few hits, making them very popular in PvP. Their stealth abilities make them excellent scouts as well.

In groups, Rogues will be popular for their ability to pick locks and their ability to detect enemy stealthers in PvP.
Weaknesses

Although evasion helps, Rogues are still fairly fragile. They don't get to wear heavy armors, and they have lower hitpoints than ordinary tanks. This, combined with the fact that they can deal high amounts of damage, means that the Rogue must be careful not to draw aggro too early in a fight or they may end up eating dirt.
