[OOC] Return to the Rusty Rat

[Toot]

1. Agree about stealth but in my reading it's not about "approaching" unnoticed but "leaving" unnoticed. i.e. you may be visible and may make noise but whoever comes after you won't be able to follow your *tracks*.
2. Yes, this is the question whether it means "all forms of movement". Sounds pretty magical to me.

Extraordinary Abilities (Ex)

Extraordinary abilities are nonmagical, though they may break the laws of physics. They are not something that just anyone can do or even learn to do without extensive training.

Toot doesn't have Pass without Trace, he has an ability called:

Trackless Step (Ex)

Starting at 3rd level, a druid leaves no trail in natural surroundings and cannot be tracked. She may choose to leave a trail if so desired.

This doesn't say he creates tracks that quickly fade.  It says he "leaves no trail."  None.  Zero. Zilch.  In other words it breaks the laws of physics.

As for Pass Without Trace, I think it does exactly what it says it does.  There is a spell called PWT that says:

 The subject or subjects can move through any type of terrain and leave neither footprints nor scent. Tracking the subjects is impossible by nonmagical means.
