The Guru

The Guru is a character introduced in Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves  and is the first one to join the gang, and help break into the vault. When Murray left at the end of Sly 2, he begins spiritual training with the Guru who teaches him many Aboriginal fighting moves. The Guru tells Murray to go to Venice until "The black water ran pure." However Murray wishes to see his master again, and so with his two best friends he returns to find The Guru has been captured by a band of miners. Once the gang has freed him, however, he assists them in their quest to break into the Cooper Vault and is a valuable ally on the way using his unusual talents. At the end of Sly 3, he finds new students for his Dreamtime course. Throughout Sly 3  he speaks in an unknown language that only the rest of the Cooper Gang can understand.
