Hide
Skill, Thieving
Staying unseen in shadows, behind curtains, in tall grass and similar cover; the trained version of the common hiding ability.
From the book
Hide is the trained skill of escaping notice by keeping to shadows, slipping behind curtains, lying in tall grass and the like. The chance is 35%, plus 5% per level.
The Game Judge adjusts this by the quality of the hiding place: an excellent or particularly clever spot doubles the chance, while a poor or obvious one halves it. Assassins, bounty hunters, rogues and spies learn it at first level.
