Hiding and Sneaking

In the game: help hide

Stay out of sight, and find those who hide.

Syntax: hide            (begin hiding)
Syntax: search          (look for hidden people)
Syntax: point <victim>  (point out a hiding person to others)
Syntax: visible         (stop hiding, and drop any invisibility)

Hiding keeps you out of sight of players and NPCs. You have to take care that nobody sees you hiding. If you have learned sneak you stay hidden when walking into a new room; sneak works automatically, there is no sneak command.

People and monsters can discover you by typing 'search'. When they discover your hiding place, they will be aware of you, and will be able to point you out to everyone in the room by typing 'point <victim>'. (see HELP POINT)

People and monsters can also discover you using the SPOT skill. this skill is automatic, and triggers when you enter a room, or when someone attempts to sneak into a room.

When you speak, cast, or emote, you become revealed to anyone in the room. Sneaking while mounted is not possible.
