[QUOTE="I'm A Banana, post: 9594125, member: 2067"] Sure. Fly speed of 10 feet, so pretty slow regardless. Stealth rules being the ambiguous mess they are, this is somewhat up to DM judgement, but I wouldn't give any extra advantage that being invisible and being a cloud don't already confer. I could probably be talked into Advantage if the player wants to advocate for it, but I don't think there's anything that would grant that by RAW.
