Nalia: Swashbuckler. I may give her a couple of Magic Missles as special abilities to reflect her having some minor mage training. Or maybe I`ll make her a lvl2 mage dualed to swashbuckler... we`ll see. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I think, somewhere, in a banter, Nalia reflects that her mother or father encouraged her to become a mage to stop her becoming a thief, or something. It implies that she was a thief before she was a mage. There are also a lot of TOB dialogs, not to mention her epilogue, that refer to her Archmage status. These might need to be changed if the change to Swashbuckler goes ahead.
I can't help but think that Nalia being able to backstab suits her so damn well, though! The number of times I've seen a fragile heroine in films or books take a baddie out by sneaking up behind him and hitting him over the head with something hard, like a bottle or something, while he's busy growling or laughing evilly or something... well, I always associated that action with Nalia's 'backstab'. You could always just shift the majority of her thievery skills to traps, locks and illusions...
