I consider the B/X Thief the ideal Isekai protagonist with a Skill framework into which 'other' skills might be inserted to replace unappealing thief skills.
Crack open a manga comic and jot down OP character skills like 'absorb' (a monster skill which gives your pc the capacity to pick up those special skills mentioned in the preamble to the monsters section in b/x). Imagine your thief absorbing dragon breath (breath damage equal to hp 3×day) having consumed its flesh and saved vs poison.
The price is you start with one skill (Absorb) which we put in slot 7.
