Witch's familiar delivering touch spells

[Volpe]

If I have a tiny familiar go stealth and deliver a cure mod wounds to an ally that's in the same square as him does that break his stealth?

Touch Spells in Combat

Quote:

Many spells have a range of touch. To use these spells, you cast the spell and then touch the subject. In the same round that you cast the spell, you may also touch (or attempt to touch) as a free action. You may take your move before casting the spell, after touching the target, or between casting the spell and touching the target. You can automatically touch one friend or use the spell on yourself, but to touch an opponent, you must succeed on an attack roll.

There's no attack (typically), so it shouldn't break stealth, but if there's any visual/audio effect to the spell, that is not hidden and can possibly alert others that something happened.

If, for some reason, you are forced to roll the touch attack (such as Superstition), it probably should break stealth.

There's no such thing as breaking stealth.

Let me expand on that. The way you're using the word 'stealth' it's as if there were a condition called 'stealthy' or 'in stealth', sort of an 'invisibility-light' where doing certain actions causes that condition to end. That's not the case.

Stealth is a skill that allows you to not be seen or heard. If you have concealment or cover you can make a stealth check to hide or move around without being detected.

If at any point you no longer have cover or concealment from someone, you can't use stealth to avoid being seen by them.

So, if your familiar has cover or concealment vs. All foes all the way to your team mate, including in the square the team mate is occupying, then with a successful stealth roll vs. Perception, your familiar can avoid being seen while delivering a touch spell.
