Snooping
Snooping opens somebody else's backpack for you to look through. You can move nothing and take nothing through the window: it is a look, and the only thing it leads to is Stealing. Right-click a player standing beside you in a town square and choose Snoop. An attempt takes up to thirty seconds, and a look that is going to work can land sooner; what opens is their actual bag, everything where they left it. A bag inside their pack is a second attempt of its own. While you work they get a faint warning that is easy to miss, and a fumble puts your name in their Journal.

Snooping takes nothing and breaks no law. While you are at it the other player gets one faint line on their screen that names nobody and is easy to miss. A look that fails puts your name in their Journal.
Practising on a Belled Purse marks you a criminal while you keep at it and for two minutes after. A town's guards arrest criminals on sight, so practise at home.
