* Stealth: Light

Implied: (enforceable)
* Stealth
Only for use in games where turning off lights actually has effect on gameplay. Implying that NPCs have simulated vision to a degree, making it harder for them to spot you in darkness than in brightly lit location.

This can also include simple light switches as well, though they're of lesser interest. Primarily cases where the light source itself can be tampered with.
