Supreme Stealth (Talent)

Ability Type: Ex

Prerequisites: Rogue 31, Cloaked (Talent), Selective Obfuscation (Talent), Minor Magic (Talent)

Benefit: The Rogue can cause themselves to become invisible at will, as the Greater Invisibility spell. Doing so requires a move action that does not provoke, and the rogue may initiate a stealth stance as part of this same move action. They can dismiss the invisibility effect as a free action. There is no limit to the number of times per day this ability may be used, nor does it have a limited duration, as long as the rogue does nothing to cause the invisibility to break. If the rogue attempts to resume invisibility on the same round they became visible, they suffer a -10 penalty to their Stealth check to re-hide as though they are sniping. If the rogue resumes invisibility on any other round after becoming visible, there is no penalty to the Stealth check.

Unlike the Cloaked talent, Supreme Stealth is an Extraordinary (Ex) ability. As such, it can be used in areas where magic does not operate, such as within an anti-magic zone.

Finally, the rogue with this talent reduces their Arcane Spell Failure chance (from wearing armor or a shield) by 5%, as long as they are proficient with the armor and/or shield in question. This stacks with any other reductions to Arcane Spell Failure they may gain from other sources (such as from certain Dweomermetals), including further reductions from other Rogue Talents.
