Gonna play this character tommorrow and I'm kind of confused. This is from Divergent Path: Fool's Errand. How would you interpret the text below? (the text is from Divergent Paths: Fool's Errand)
"In order for the night terror to recover maneuvers, he must momentarily retreat from the battle to position himself for a new ambush. As a full-round action, the night terror gains the ability to use the Stealth skill while being observed for one round, then can make a Stealth check to hide and move up to his speed."
Do i get to use stealth roll while everyone's looking at me, and THEN, afterwards, I need to find a hiding spot where i make a separate stealth check? (like, they just kind of forget that I'm there for a bit, like some sort of psudeo-invisibility)
OR
Does it just allow me to run to a spot and hide (like, the first part of it just ALLOWS me to use that stealth ability to hide, and the second part is prompting me to do the one stealth check)?
As weird as not inivisibile invisibility sounds, so does getting up in the middle of the fight, jumping into and hiding inside a crate, with the guards next round going "where did he go?!" while scratching their heads. Actually, it sounds weirder to me.
Maybe I'm just an imbecile, but I really can't wrap my head around how this is written. The fluff text seems to imply the latter, but the next phrase seems like something in addition to the "running and hiding" portion.
If you've been reading my posts here, I am a bit of a rules lawyer, and i really want to make sure im doing things right so everyone can have fun. I would really like to get someone from Dreamscarred Press to answer, but they don't really answer their sites forums all that often.
