I don't know why I keep getting a SyntaxError...

import random

class Character: def_init_(self, name, **kwargs): self.name = name

    for key, value, in kwargs.items():
        setattr(self, key, value)

class Thief(Character): sneaky = True

def __init__(self, name, sneaky=True, **kwargs):
    super().__init__(name, **kwargs)
    self.sneaky = True    


def pickpocket(self):
    return self.sneaky and bool(random.randint(0, 1))

def hide(self, light_level):
    return self.sneaky and light_level < 10

It's hard to be sure without code formatting, but it looks like there's a space missing between the first "def" and the "__init__".

For future questions, be sure to use Markdown formatting to preserve the indentation and special characters.
