Hide

From Wormhole Sci-Fi MUD Homepage

When you type hide there is a chance that you hide in the room. If hidden
you can only be "sensed" by the "sense life" power. Even if sensed your
identity will remain hidden. Hide is broken by pressing return, regardless
of whether you typed a command or not.

Example:

>hide
Ok.

> (you wait for ex. 5 mins and remain hidden for 5 mins)

> (You press enter and are no longer hidden)

Hide is useful for snooping on people, or loitering in the hope that you'll hear a door password. It can also be followed by Backstab, for a particularly nasty surprise. Finally, it's handy in a 'recall quest', where you comete by activating remote recall devices on rivals in an effort to be the last person in a zone.
