Species Traits

Does the Halfling's Naturally Stealthy trait allow them to hide while observed?. Normally, to take the Hide action, you must meet the following criteria:

• You must be Heavily Obscured or behind Three-Quarters or Total Cover.

• You must be out of any enemy's line of sight.

The Halfling's Naturally Stealthy trait allows you to bypass these criteria if you're obscured by a creature at least one size larger than you. However, you still must make a Dexterity (Stealth) check as you normally would when taking the Hide action, so there's no guarantee of success.
