Description

 * Illusion. The adept combines fluid movement with magical effects that dampen sound and mask his presence, including deepening shadows and using illusion to remain unobserved. The adept makes a Stealthy Stride test, the result being the Difficulty Number for any Perception tests made to notice the adept.
 * This talent does not allow the adept to vanish while being observed—once a character is aware of the adept’s presence and watching him the talent will not work. Using Stealthy Stride halves the adept’s Movement Rate and the effect of any abilities used to increase movement speed.
 * Skill Use: The non-magical version of this talent does not include the magical effects, but otherwise works the same way as the talent.
