[sblock=ooc]I hate to be a killjoy, but one quick question: how did Snake1 move and attack when it was prone?

I guess ultimately it doesn't matter, since the 2nd snake could have moved to where snake 1 is now, and all the attacks missed anyway. Let's just keep going, since it doesn't really make a difference.[/sblock]

[sblock=OOC]To tell you the truth, I completely forgot about the snakes being prone, but I can't help but agree with you at this point. I certainly don't think the snake gained an advantage by moving where he did. They're turning out to be more of a nuisance than a threat .[/sblock]

 

[Tenchuu]

With a quick slash of light, Gensai lashed out with a quick strike, nearly killing the snake. He barked, "I have this one! Focus on the other!"

"You cannot escape," he growled low at the creature.

"Rujah in way of other snake. Fenwick just finish this one."
Fenwick brings his axe down on the snake again, bisecting it.

The remaining snake lunges at Rujah, who steps out of the way without even trying, his hammer comes down on the unfortunate reptile as it attempts to slither past, and the threat seems to be extinguished. Unfortunately, this is only the beginning.

From behind, he hears a deep, grating sound, followed by a horrifying scream. He turns to see Gensai lying on the ground behind a startled Fenwick, bleeding, but lucky to be alive. The large, granite slab in the ceiling has fallen dealing the rhonin a glancing blow and separating the group. Even from where they stand, the four heroes can hear a deep, heavy rumbling that hints of the fate meeting their companion on the other side of the slab.

Riardon is almost to the other side of the pit when it all begins to unfold. The slab comes down, blocking him off from his friends, but his shock suddenly turns to horror as he notices that the levers next to the slab are slowly sinking into the floor. He turns around, and sees the riddle stone doing the same. As he watches these items disappear, his fears are realized as the large wall begins to move.

Riardon knows that if the wall is allowed to make its full stroke, he could be cut off from his allies and left a lone in this hostile passage.

GM: The slab is considered a masonry wall (DC 35/Nat 20 Strength Check to break) The large wall is not breakable. It is moving to the east at a rate of 1 square a round. Skill Challenge: Stop the Trap and Reunite the Party with Riardon Complexity 3 (8 successes before 3 failures) Primary Skills: Athletics DC 18 Nature DC 12 Thievery DC 12 Dungeoneering DC 15 Perception DC 15 Note: There are no secondary skills. All checks must be rolled (no taking 10). Each skill can only be used twice, except for Thievery (can be used 3 times).

Riardon

Riardon looks frantically for a way to stop the trap...

[sblock=OOC]

Hope this is the right description for a Perception check.

One skill roll / round?

I will be away this weekend, resuming play at Sunday evening.

Rujah moves to the slab, his eyes darting from side to side, looking for something unnatural that could maybe give a hint how to solve the situation.

OOC: One skill roll / round?

GM: Yes. Only one check per round. ...And yes. That means that, at its current speed, the wall will reach the edge of the pit after the last round of the skill challenge.
