SRD:Move Silently Skill

Move Silently (Dex; Armor Check Penalty)
Check

Your Move Silently check is opposed by the Listen check of anyone who might hear you. You can move up to one-half your normal speed at no penalty. When moving at a speed greater than one-half but less than your full speed, you take a –5 penalty. It’s practically impossible (–20 penalty) to move silently while running or charging.

Noisy surfaces, such as bogs or undergrowth, are tough to move silently across. When you try to sneak across such a surface, you take a penalty on your Move Silently check as indicated below.

SurfaceCheck Modifier
Noisy (scree, shallow or deep bog, undergrowth, dense rubble)–2
Very noisy (dense undergrowth, deep snow)–5
Action

None. A Move Silently check is included in your movement or other activity, so it is part of another action.

Special

The master of a cat familiar gains a +3 bonus on Move Silently checks.

A halfling has a +2 racial bonus on Move Silently checks.

If you have the Stealthy feat, you get a +2 bonus on Move Silently checks.

gollark: It would be elegant, maintainable, simple, and not have something like four source folders and no documentation for some reason and why does it contain Visual Basic æ.
gollark: I think that if I were to do something like this, I would at least do it *well*.
gollark: Wow, is this Visual Basic?
gollark: Does this person realize that deleting sendhookfile.exe does not stop me trivially obtaining it from repo history?
gollark: Plus, the repository hosts high levels of intellectual discussion regarding cybersecurity.
