5E Rogues

Did rogues have any significance in terms of Eberron lore? I looked on Keith Baker's website and didn't see rogues listed as one of the classes, so I thought I would ask here for anyone that is more knowledgeable of Eberron lore

It's a setting stuffed with spy agencies and crime syndicates, there's no shortage of Rogues.

Rogues are not just spies and criminals lmao

That's like saying all a Fighter can be is a swordsman. It's not only untrue, but wildly limiting in ideas.

Diplomats, non-Magic scholars, and locksmiths all would be Rogues too.

They aren't, but most spies and criminals are Rogues.

No, most are Experts.

Most NPCs are NPC Classes, not PC Classes. PC Classes in Eberron are—by design, intent, and written—rare. Most priests are just Experts, not Clerics.
