Sneaky, backstabbing, thieving, and a common cause of "LOL, ROUGE IS MAKEUP, IDORT" comments, rogues generally have a high damage potential, and a lot of skills making them useful in various situations, but low hit points.

Given the power of their sneak attacks, many builds revolve around turning invisible after performing an attack. This may sound pretty sweet, but said builds also often revolve around one specific kind of weapon (ice, radiant, etc.) and so a clever DM can simply not provide any of said weapon.
