Naturally the Character's measure of success is determined to some degree by the surroundings and the available light; it is more difficult to hide oneself in a brightly-lit, empty room than in a dark, crate-filled warehouse.

Prowling Apprentice: the Character's chance of success is unaffected by lighting, and armor penalties are halved

Prowling Expert: the Character's chance of success is unaffected by surrounding objects, and he can walk while Prowling

Prowling Master: the Character can conceal himself during combat and cause his opponent to lose track of him, and he may also run while Prowling
