Rogues: Why no traps?

I was just wondering why there are no "traps" in dungeons and no disarm or find trap skills for the rogues?  I was playing NWN this past weekend and rolled a rogue to play and creeping through the dungeons looking for traps and disarming them was a cool aspect.  It seems like it would be a simple aspect to include in a class based fantasy game that has rogues.

Fact: Only 1% of those has Ebstein's Anomaly.
Fact: My daughter is in that 1%.

    This sounds more along the lines of Trapping in SWG as opposed to disarming traps in dungeons and on treasure chests or whatever.

    Ahh, you know, I've been to that page probably like a dozen times and I always focused on the lower half and totally over looked the Scout area. :)  Thanks and I'll go make an eye doctor appointment now.
