"The ability to make the things of others your own. Can be used to steal from people or places."
The Steal skill allows you to steal items from NPC's or player's inventory, or plant objects in their pockets. It's not possible to steal items held in hands. Stealing from NPCs gives you experience points - the more successful consecutive steal attempts (without closing inventory window), the more experience you will gain. Each consecutive steal attempt is more difficult.
Stealing chance
Stealing chance depends on Stealing skill of the thief and Perception of the robbed person. Size of the item and facing also matter if you don't have Pickpocket perk. Moreover guards in protected towns can notice stealing near them. They have smaller chance to notice stealing attempts at night.
Stealing failure
Penalty for failure is reputation drop. If guards in protected towns will notice you stealing, you will be tagged as thief - you won't be protected by guards in the town and players will be able to shot you. The thief tag disappears after death.
