Is standing from prone considered movement for the purposes of 5ft steps?

Another question about the Spirit Accel. It says increases your movement speed increase. Does this include when using a 5ft step?
So... a 20ft step? :flutter

Also, Osle. In IC it says I'm grappled. Did you roll my opposed grapple check? Or am I to do that? The assumption's on the latter, but just checking due to me not being able to decipher the million dice rolls you made :o

A 5ft step has no connection to movement speed. Only way to increase the distance you 5ft step is an ability that specifically says it does that.

It does, though.

You can move 5 feet in any round when you don’t perform any other kind of movement.
Emphasis mine. It definitely has a connection to movement speed.
Now, I realise that the answer is most probably going to be a big, fat, "Nooooo." I mean, everything bar stuff like Tumble (DC40), Rollerskates, etc, doesn't effect it. And the things that do affect it, point it out specifically (off the top of my head). But, I am interested nonetheless.

By that logic, Amaterasu (in the high end) can move about a hundred and fifty feet or something as a five-foot step.

That's a connection to "movement speed" as in "how fast you are moving in a given round" but it's not a connection to movement speed, the stat, as in "how fast you are capable of moving in a single action" because a Halfling takes the same sized 5ft step as a Human.

Thinking about it, I now realize 5ft steps do have a connection to movement speed, but only on the low end. If your speed is 5ft or less, you can't take a 5ft step as a free action.

I believe not.

As far as remember, increases to your movement speed never affect the distance of your 5-feet step range unless explicitly noticed.

Also, Osle. In IC it says I'm grappled. Did you roll my opposed grapple check? Or am I to do that? The assumption's on the latter, but just checking due to me not being able to decipher the million dice rolls you made :o
I rolled for you ahead of time here at the bottom of the post.

oslecamo, I just remembered that I think the trip attack against me should have missed but that's my fault, I've adjusted my sheet and every single bonus I get is now included in all of the math AND labeled as being included so there won't be any more confusion for anyone.

I don't want to change anything (and I could be wrong about if it missed, there are a whole lot of rolls), I just wanted to explain myself in case some of my bonuses look different.

I'll take your word on it.

I was being facetious and nit picky. I wasn't actually arguing with you about the rules :P

As far as remember, increases to your movement speed never affect the distance of your 5-feet step range unless explicitly noticed.
Ta.

I rolled for you ahead of time here at the bottom of the post.
Thank you.

Quick question- I didn't know withdrawing from melee combat was a full-round action- I thought it was just a Move. Is it alright if I just get rid of the attack and damage rolls and retreat?
