The Gentleman Thief's Guide

Have you ever dreamed of being like Arsène Lupin, the legendary gentleman thief who made elegance his signature? Or like Assane Diop, moving through Paris like a ghost in a tuxedo? With The Gentleman Thief's Guide, you're not just a thief: you're an artist, and every heist is your masterpiece.

Forget crude violence and uncouth robberies. Here, true power lies in style, wit, and the ability to transform a theft into an unforgettable performance. It's not about what you steal, but how you steal it.

Imagine infiltrating a high-society gala in perfect disguise. Moving through a laser maze with a dancer's precision. Or perhaps charming a guard with your sophisticated wit while your accomplices slip into the vault. In The Gentleman Thief's Guide, every action is an opportunity to shine.

A System That Rewards Style

The game system is designed to celebrate elegance and cunning. Elegance Points measure your ability to maintain class and composure even in the most desperate situations. Flashbacks allow you to reveal brilliant plans at just the right moment, as if you had anticipated every detail. And your Essence? It's that magical moment when you transcend the limits of possibility, transforming yourself into a legend.

An Homage to the Masters of the Genre

TGTG draws inspiration from the great classics of the genre, from Ocean's Eleven to The Thomas Crown Affair, to modern reinterpretations like Lupin. But it's not just an homage: it's an invitation to create your own stories of audacity and style, where the impossible becomes reality through elegance.

Whether you're an ex-cop who's crossed to the other side of the law, an acrobat who found their calling in high-profile heists, or a tech genius who sees every security system as a puzzle to be solved with style, TGTG is your stage.

Welcome to the world of gentleman thieves. It's time to leave your mark on history. As always, the more interest I see, the more motivated I'll be to develop this project! 

Note: We have been independent self-publishers since 1990. The name "Vas Quas Editrice" remains out of affection for the time we decided to venture into publishing our own tabletop games. However, for several years now, it has served only as a label that connects back to its founder, Giovanni Micolucci, and to the passionate community that continues to support and follow Vas Quas.
