Mug
From Final Fantasy Wiki
Mug, also known as Capture or Plunder, is an ability in the Final Fantasy series. It is a combination of Fight and Steal, allowing the user to attack and attempt to steal an item in the same turn. Like its counterpart Steal, it is usually associated with the Thief class.

Mug is the Level 6 ability of the Thief job class.
[edit] Final Fantasy VI
Locke Cole can use Mug if he is equipped with a Thief Glove. Due to a bug in the game, however, the Thief Glove replaces any replacement effect on Locke's weapon, such as random instant death or defense ignoring, with a Steal attempt; however, weapons that randomly cast spells would still perform such after the steal attempt was made.
The Thief Knife also causes its user to attempt to Steal when attacking. It can be equipped by Locke and Shadow. Some enemies can use Mug on the party as well, and if they or the party escapes, the party loses the item or Gil stolen. If the enemy is defeated and the battle is won, the party will gain the Gil or Item back afterwards.
