Revision as of 17:41, 22 August 2020

The art of not being seen through actions and the application of camouflage and disguise, designed to allow the character to move or wait within a short distance of an enemy without being seen. The study is applied primarily in self-defense and escaping notice; there is little inherent in the knowledge that will allow the counter-observance of others who might also possess this knowledge.

Much of the study is related to the sage ability, stealth, as concealment improves the effects of that ability or obliviates the need for it. The study also teaches the character how to act in the open without drawing attention, or how to avoid direct searches for the character through distraction, including the addition of light and other energy sources to the character's "bag of tricks."

The abilities below describe the possible actions within the study.
