Moving into invisible creature's square


Rules Questions


So I had this come up last game and I was wondering what the rules are for moving into a square that is occupied by an invisible creature that you do not see. I have looked around for some ruling on this but i guess I am looking in the wrong places. Any help would be great.

They AoO you (for entering their square) and automatically halt your movement since you weren't trying to acro past them?

(In world terms, you bump into them, stop, and go "WTF?!")

I base this on the fact that you cannot move through an opponent's square without either a combat maneuver or using acrobatics, and both are declared ahead of time. Since you saw no creature, you didn't declare, and thus can't move past them on that action (but can on subsequent actions).

The AoO is from attempting movement while threatened (though a non-hostile invisible creature wouldn't take the opportunity).


The Acrobatics attempt is for forcing your way past an enemy though. Your friends let you pass (can't for a charge somehow...) so if the enemy wanted to stay concealed couldn't it sidestep the person walking through his space? (Maybe give said person an extra perception roll to notice the sound/sudden movement?)

Yes, I suppose they could. I'd have an immediate stealth-v-perception check to resolve that.
