3.5 FAQ: It turns you invisible but it doesn't follow the same rules as the "Invisibility" spell.

How does the ghost step ability of the ninja (​

​

CAd) work? Does the invisibility effect end if the ninja attacks, like with the invisibility spell, or does it continue after an attack, like with the greater invisibility spell?​

The invisibility granted by the ninja’s ghost step class feature lasts until the start of the ninja’s next turn, regardless of whether she attacks or not. Thus, it’s more like​

greater invisibility than like the normal invisibility spell.​

It gives you the status/condition of being invisible: only the spell breaks after one attack; not the condition.

If it was a spell-like ability: it might have been the spell, but it isn't the spell.

So the whole round: so closest to C. It stops just before your turn begins next turn.

You are invisible until the beginning of your next turn. You are free to do whatever you want until then, be it a full attack, charge, grapple, spellcasting maybe, or what have you, your invisibility will remain regardless. Now, if the enemy casts invisibility purge or something similar, then your invisibility is at risk. But otherwise, enemy actions will not affect your invisibility either.
