[QUOTE="Kylas, post: 4166571, member: 58233"] Actually quoting from D20 SRD "Hide Action Usually none. Normally, you make a Hide check as part of movement, so it doesn’t take a separate action." A hide check is only an action if you need to use an action to hide. E.g. If you were sleeping in bushes you wouldnt be "actively" hiding but an enemy would still get a spot check to try and see you. His spot would be opposed by your hide check ( with modifers from your DM maybe..) If you gate/telo/D-door into a woman's bedrrom in broad daylight you can't hide cause your being observed. So you would need to move to cover/conceament to be able to hide. But since you just used your action your turn would be over. Now if your shadow dancer your and your within 10' shadow you would be able to Hide in the womans room cause of HiPS. She would roll spot and might still see you but HiPs allows you your Hide Check.
