True Conviction/Cath: Master Thief

Cath: Master Thief - C

Cath	The treasures... They call to me! I’ve heard Askr has connections to all sorts of unique worlds, so... I bet there are all lots of treasures I’ve never seen before hidden here! Right, underling number one?
Listen. I’ve said this several times already: I’m not your underling.		Chad
Cath	Y’know, I noticed something... Askr has a lot of Heroes who make their living as thieves, doesn’t it?
So you’re just going to ignore me... Got it. But yes, you’re right. I was surprised to learn that you and I weren’t the only thieves here, if I’m being honest. I suppose every world is filled with those who couldn’t survive without a little thievery...		Chad
Cath	Exactly! And don’t you think this is an excellent opportunity? If I play my cards right, I could recruit the ones with strong moral codes as my underlings. I know! Our group will be called Cath’s Bandits!
Huh? W-wait a second... What’re you talking about? No one asked you to form a group! A bunch of thieves would just end up being a problem for Lord Roy!		Chad
Cath	What’s it matter if no one asked me? I’m helping! The world needs fixing! It must be done! On that note, I’m going to recruit each and every capable thief here and form Cath’s Bandits! It’s time to teach the evildoers of Askr a lesson while saving those in need!
H-hey! Wait! Listen when people try to talk to you...		Chad

Cath: Master Thief - B

Cath	I can tell when someone moves in the same circles as I do. They have a unique sort of...aura to them.
...		Niles
Cath	Oh! Look at him, stalking about silently. He’s probably a thief! And no ordinary thief, either... Hi there. My name’s Cath! I’m a thief who was recently summoned to Askr.
Do you want something?		Niles
Cath	You seem like you’ve got pretty solid technique. Why don’t you join Cath’s Bandits?
Technique? Hmph. You commend my technique? Yes, I have all sorts of amazing techniques...		Niles
Cath	Huh? Well, what I think you’re trying to say is you’re confident in your abilities. Does that sound about right? A-anyway, I’m gathering members to join my band of thieves! It’s time we fixed this broken world! We’re going to punish all the fat-cat evildoers in our own special way! Well? Want to join us?
Punish them, eh? I like the sound of that. There’s no better feeling than making the rich squeal like pigs.		Niles
Cath	Um, right! So you’ll join then! You want to be one of Cath’s Bandits!
I don’t know if it is wise for you to let me join so quickly. After all, once you let me in there’s no going back. Not until it all breaks...		Niles
Cath	Umm... Is it just me or does it feel like we’re not having the same conversation?
There she is! And she’s already recruiting! Hey, Cath!		Chad
Cath	Ugh, he already caught up?! I better get going! See you later! Keep thinking about my offer, OK? Cath’s Bandits would love to have you!

Cath: Master Thief - A

Cath	I’d nearly forgotten, but my feminine charms are some of my best talents. Maybe they’ll help this time.
...		Yuri
Cath	Oh! The way he moves... An amateur probably wouldn’t recognize it, but I know those practiced movements! I know he’s a fellow thief. One who’s been through many harrowing exploits and lived to tell the tale. This time... This time I’ll use my best talent to recruit him. No one can deny my charms! Why hello there, handsome. Want to chat? I have...so many ideas of what we could talk about.
Hm? What could you want from a run-of-the-mill attractive young man such as myself?		Yuri
Cath	Ahhh! Wha? How? How is this guy real?! When he looks me in the eye, it’s like his gaze pierces my heart! A-and his skin is so perfect! It’s shining like glitter!
Is something wrong? You’re kind of funny, you know. Approaching me and then getting transfixed like that.		Yuri
Cath	His perfect skin is blinding me! Th-there’s no way I could entice him into joining. He’s too charming! S-sorry, thought you were someone else! Forget it! I’ll be on my way now!
Cath	Phew! The Order of Heroes recruits from every imaginable world. It’s not surprising that some are...unusual... Hm... At this rate, there’s no telling when Cath’s Bandits will form. No, I won’t give up! I will form the largest band of thieves Askr has ever seen, and...
Cath	Ahhh! Oh, I’m so sorry! I was lost in thought. I didn’t mean to bump into you...
...		???
Cath	What?! It...it can’t be! There’s another me?! C-could it be another me that came from another world?!

Cath: Master Thief - S

???	Cath... You must listen to me! Stop trying to make Cath’s Bandits a thing! It will never work.
... OK. I’ll admit, you surprised me at first. But give it up. I can tell you’re a fake. Who are you? Show yourself!		Cath
???	...
Xane	Oh fine. What gave it away? Was it my delivery? I gotta say, you’ve got pretty sharp instincts.
Whoa! I was right! How’d you do that? You could have been my twin.		Cath
Xane	I appreciate that, though clearly it wasn’t enough to fool you. I have the ability to transform into other people.
Th-that’s amazing... That’s exactly the type of skill my band of thieves is looking for. How about it? Want to join Cath’s Bandits?		Cath
Chad	Hold up! Phew, I finally caught you... No more pointless recruitment attempts, Cath. It’s time to let it go.
Underling number one?! What are you doing here?		Cath
Chad	Just give me a moment... Damn, you’re a fast runner. Lord Roy must have had a tough time catching you, let alone recruiting you.
I suppose it’s time to come clean: Chad asked me to do this. He was all like, “You gotta help me catch Cath!” I couldn’t resist a little prank. So I helped him out to kill some time.		Xane
Cath	What? Underling number one put you up to this? But why? I’m busy trying to find new recruits...
That’s what I’ve been trying to tell you. There’s no need. Think about why we were really called to Askr...		Chad
Cath	No, you think about it! I have to punish all the fat-cat evil merchants and rotten aristocrats!
But Cath, there isn’t anyone like that here. No dastardly nobles or gluttonous evil merchants.		Chad
Cath	Wait, what? What do you mean? How could there not be any villains?
The people of this land are hard workers. They support each other, and they trust the royal family.		Xane
Cath	Then what about Cath’s Bandits? Are you saying there’s no need for a group of benevolent buccaneers?!
That’s exactly what I’ve been saying! But you completely ignored me and went off on your own. You don’t need to form a group. There’s plenty of work for us thieves here with Order of Heroes. Reconnaissance, diversions, subverting enemy authority... The list is never-ending!		Chad
Cath	Oh, well, I guess that’s something. I suppose I just got ahead of myself in my quest to rid Askr of tyranny. If there aren’t any fat-cat evil merchants to thwart, then I won’t be doing any thwarting! I’ll just have to settle for punishing those that try to harm Askr, then. OK, new battle plan! I’ll put all my focus on aiding the Order of Heroes. I’ll be the best thief they’ve ever had. I look forward to continuing to work with you, underlings one and two!
Huh? Are you calling me underling number two?		Xane
Cath	Oh, sorry, underling number two was 【Summoner】. Try to keep up, underling number one and underling number three!
I told you before! I never consented to being called your underling!		Chad
