Splitting up the Thief talent

"Thieves' cant" (a private language used by thieves; many of their slang words are now commonly accepted by proper English) was in vogue long before the Napoleonic Wars in England -- and had probably been in use for at least a century or two by then, along with recognition signs among thieves (at least in Western Europe).

A "secret" language sort of indicates a certain level of organization, I'd say...
