Shadowing

Advanced
Agility   The Shadowing skill allows you to follow another creature or vehicle without being seen. Shadowing differs from Concealment in that you are moving while masking your presence, often slipping from one place of cover to another or, if that is not possible, acting as if you are doing something else, such as reading through a data-slate, scrutinizing a wanted poster or anything else that makes you blend in with your environment. A Shadowing Test is always an Opposed Test, pitting your Skill against your opponent’s Awareness skill (or half their Perception if they do not have the Awareness skill).
Shadowing becomes far easier in certain environments. When threading through a dense crowd, or following along in a foggy night, you gain a bonus on your Test. Each factor that masks your presence confers a +10 bonus to a maximum of +30 for three factors. For example, you would get a +20 bonus when Shadowing a target at night through a crowded bazaar.
A single Shadowing Test is sufficient to follow your opponent unseen for one minute.  

Evade Pursuit

Once you are aware that you’re being followed, you can use Shadowing to evade pursuit. Make a Shadowing Test Opposed by your opponent’s Awareness Test. If you beat your opponent a number of times equal to his Intelligence Bonus, you manage to slip away unseen.
