I would, however, require a new roll whenever the circumstances change. Like leaving your cover or concealment, or going from a stationary hide to a moving hide. In return, possible observers get an new Spot check every time the circumstances change: someone bringing a lightsource into the hallway, someone drawing attention to the viscinity of the hiding character (someone else failing a hide or move silently, for instance). In conclusion: I would allow the character to use a single hide check (opposed by a single spot check) as long as the circumstances do not change.But all that is to reduce the number of rolls to be made. And remember, even that one roll he's making can fail..... especially with observant opponents</blockquote>
