[QUOTE="Nonlethal Force, post: 3085479, member: 35788"] [Sblock=Byntrou]On this count, jkason, the answer is yes, you will have to declare searching for secret doors - or at least make a stement like "Byntrou will check for secret doors at the end of every tunnel that is a dead end." The only real way around this is if you are an elf or have some other natural bonus to auto-detect things like that. Besides - at places in the journey like this is where Byntrou is expected to "do his thing." I'm sure the rest of the party would rather spend a few moments declaring Byntoru is using his abilities than just putting it on auto-pilot. Traps are one thing, but looking for secret doors is much more significant! Enjoy these moments as a time for Byntrou to shine rather than thinking of them as places to hold the party up. But for what it's worth, Byntrou doesn't find any evidence of a secret door here, although upon further examination there is some evidence to believe that the solid slab of stone might serve as a portal of some sort - either a rising door, a swinging door, or something. The stones on the floor at the base of the wall are more worn where the large solid stone is than anywhere else.[/Sblock] [/QUOTE]
