Apologies for the triple post. Rules were clarified in the discussion thread.
After a quick test, it is apparent the circlet will not fit on my head in bat form after all. A quick shapechange later, I am winging my way towards the patrol ship.
I fly low to the water in a zig-zaggy pattern.
Stealth: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 18
I try to calm my excitement at the newness of this form.
Disguise: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (19) + 12 = 31
I attempt to count how many patrolmen are aboard the other boat (and any other details that seem important).
Perception: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10
Hmm, I think i'm getting close to the boat--
BUG!!!
**Crunch**
Now where was I? Oh yes, counting the homo sapiens.
