Description
Plunder your target's pockets as you distract them with an attack.
Mechanics
Attack a target and simultaneously attempt to
steal from them. Stealing from creatures can produce treasure as if you
LOOTed their corpse. Stealing from a creature can only be done once per creature. Success based on
Pickpocketing skill, higher success if done from
hiding. Please note that many creatures cannot be mugged due to their coding. In such cases, you will receive a message saying the creature is "too wary" - this is not a failure, the action simply is not possible (generally very old creatures cannot be mugged, such as those in the Broken Lands).
Additional Information
You can specify an attack type for Mug to use as part of the command, using the syntax CMAN MUG [attack] [target].
