"Quiet movement, and the ability to remain unnoticed. If successful, you will be much harder to locate. You cannot run and sneak at the same time, unless you take Silent Running perk."

Sneak allows a player to become totally invisible, unless he performs an attack. If he has the Silent Running perk, he can even run while being sneaked, which allows him to infiltrate enemy lines, for example. However, players can see you if you get too close to them, depending on many things (See the Modifiers section for more information).

Note: You can enter Turn-Based combat sneaked, but if you are not Assassin you can't enter sneak once Turn-Based combat has started.
