If you want to be hidden as they pass by, you'll be hidden. You only need to make stealth checks if you set and ambush or try following them.
In regards to the Hut, the entire group needs to be present at the place the hut will be going up in, and even when not cast as a ritual, it takes a minute to go up. Odds of not being spotted in the meantime are nigh nonexistent if trying to set it up out in that field.
Or did you mean to hide from the patrol? Not necessary as mentioned.
No, the way I was thinking was to have already chosen a spot far back in trees when we set it up hours ago, as a redoubt. Then everyone but I could go out for scouting etc. The ambush part would be from wherever we are spotting them from.
A bat would have a very tough time actually chewing through, they don't exactly have the dental aptitude for such a job. Most eat soft fruits or chow down on small insects. Both of which are a lot easier than dried plant fibers.
But digging through should be quite possible, and should not make a great deal of noise.

Daishain, do you have any more room left for additional characters? If so, then would I need to pay 15 FP to create another character?
I was thinking of a Dragonborn, only because I quite liked playing Skyrim.
Is there a Players handbook 5 pdf that I can also down load?
Daishain will be along shortly to help you. Yes, it will cost 15 forum points to create a character in any game. As regarding the Players Handbook, you can search for 5e d20 Srd and it will have a lot of that book available for free. There is a character creation thread for this game as well. That is where all character creation questions and discussions go. I wanted to tell you that before a moderator might jump in. Feel free to ask any questions that you might have. We have a good group here and people will be glad to help you.
I'm actually surprised the bat was one of the first considerations, I would have thought perhaps another animal might have been picked. I'm more than a bit disappointed that I wasn't able to be here at all yesterday and I missed out on some opportunity for character interactions.
