 A thief can specify a type of item to go after, such as amulets, gems, wands, etc.  However, they may not go after a specific type of an item, such as white crystals or diamonds, with the exception of allowable skins, and it is still possible to simply get coins.

 A thief may also specify a specific container on their target through which to rummage.  The container must be open and worn.
-If specifying a type of item, the container must also be specified, as a thief could not feasibly get away with rummaging through a person's entire inventory looking for something specific.  That would be the SEARCH verb.  That's a joke.

 When an item is placed into a container, there is a brief period during which the thief's chance of being caught is greatly increased if trying to take that item, or somewhat increased when trying to take anything else from that container.  This is to simulate the mark's attention being focused on that container.

 A mark can WATCH a thief for a significant bonus to catch that player stealing from them.  However, they might potentially be at a penalty to catch a different thief stealing from them.
-Crowd size makes a big difference.  Stealing from someone when there are no other players around is almost impossible.  A small crowd will make it difficult, and a large crowd will make it easier for the thief.
