[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 4939417, member: 57383"] I started out thinking 20% concealment and a big Hide bonus in darkness was the way to go to, but then I thought that there are a lot of small fey that have full invisibility at will, so giving the Bogeyman something on par made sense. It also seemed to fit their modus operandi. If they spend a lot of time lurking in bedrooms terrifying kids they have to have some highly reliable way of escaping the parents' attention. Still, if it's a big enough Hide bonus to render them effectively undetectably to a 1st-3rd level NPC it would work. Maybe they can take 10 on Hide checks when in their Aura of Darkness? Or it could just require a Spot DC or 25 or so to notice a Bogeyman in its Darkness Aura. Anyhow, I'll agree on 20% concealment. Oh, and freyar I don't remember AD&D or BECMI D&D using miss chances much at all, except for a couple of supernatural effects. [/QUOTE]
