A hobbit pickpocket:

| Reference | EvilHack - monst.c, line 559 |
A hobbit pickpocket, h, is a type of monster that appears in EvilHack and Hack'EM. In versions of EvilHack prior to 0.7, they are known as hobbit rogues.
A hobbit pickpocket is a small, omnivorous humanoid that is similar to the "base" hobbit. They have the same weapon attack as hobbits, along with a second weapon attack that can steal items similar to monkeys, and they may generate with some of a Rogue's trademark tools.
Generation
Hobbit pickpockets may occasionally generate as peaceful towards player hobbits, as well as any chaotic or unaligned player character.
Like regular hobbits, hobbit pickpockets have a chance of being generated with the following: one of a dagger, a elven dagger, or a sling and some flint stones. They also have a 1⁄10 chance of generating with a dwarvish cloak, and an independent 1⁄10 chance of generating with mithril elven chain mail. They will also receive some gold, with an additional 1⁄8 chance of receiving a lock pick and a separate 1⁄6 chance of getting a sack.
Strategy
Hobbit pickpockets are slightly tougher than the standard hobbit, and their chance of carrying a sling and flint stones makes them somewhat dangerous for early game giants. However, they are not much more difficult to defeat - a giant in particular can easily flatten one with a thrown boulder.
Hobbit pickpockets are a good early source of unlocking tools, containers and even armor for most characters.
