Sneaking increases the caster's capability to hide himself by controlling the sound emanated from his or her body while sneaking through outdoor areas. The bonus to Stalking and Hiding in natural terrains is increased with more ranks in the Ranger Base spell circle.

Combining Natural Colors or Mass Colors with Sneaking makes the caster nearly imperceptible when moving from room to room, even when not actively trying to keep themselves hidden. Only the most perceptive individuals will notice the caster's passage, although anyone who actively looks around when the caster is not keeping himself hidden will notice his presence.

Lore Benefits

Training in Spiritual Lore, Blessings decreases the chance the caster will slip in icy conditions while Sneaking is active.
