Confidence

Confidence is a Thief bonus that increases and decreases based on the success and failure of Thief-related activities. It represents your self-confidence in your own abilities. Backstabbing and Thief ambushing has the most noticeable effect on gain, whereas dying and being arrested have the most notable effect on loss.

Confidence drifts to a neutral state over time, and the base level for this neutral state is "average confidence." High Charisma will increase the base level of this neutral state, and will also adjust the speed of the drift to your benefit. I.e. high confidence will drift more slowly and low confidence will drift more quickly back to your neutral state. Charisma also places a cap on the highest level of confidence you can reach.
