The dragon lies buried at the depression's center with only its eyes and nostrils showing. Preparing this sinkhole takes 1 minute. An approaching creature can recognize the depression as a threat with a Knowledge (nature), Spot or Survival check against a DC equal to the dragon's Survival skill modifier plus 10.The yellow dragon can collapse this depression into a pit as a move-equivalent action. The dimensions of this pit are given in the Faerûnian Yellow Dragon Sinkhole Table below. All creatures standing within the area of the sinkhole must succeed at a Reflex save or Balance check or fall prone. In addition, all creatures within the center of the pit automatically fall to the bottom, while creatures standing on the sloping sides of the pit must succeed at a Reflex save or a Balance or Climb check or slide down to the bottom of the pit. Affected creatures take no damage from falling or sliding into the pit due to the softness of the sand. The DCs of all these rolls are Constitution-based, so will be equal to the save DC of the dragon's breath weapon.The interior of the pit is difficult terrain. It requires a DC 20 Balance or Climb check to move across the sloping sides of the pit without sliding to the bottom.If the Faerûnian yellow dragon leaves its buried position at the center of the depression the sinkhole will subside and can no longer be collapsed into a pit.Faerûnian Yellow Dragon Sinkhole Table[TABLE="width: 585"][TR][TD]Age[/TD][TD]Sinkhole Center[/TD][TD]Sinkhole Sides[/TD][TD]Sinkhole Depth[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]Small[/TD][TD]15 ft.[/TD][TD]15 ft. to 25 ft.[/TD][TD]5 ft.[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]Medium[/TD][TD]20 ft.[/TD][TD]25 ft. to 40 ft.[/TD][TD]5 ft.[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]Large[/TD][TD]30 ft.[/TD][TD]40 ft. to 60 ft.[/TD][TD]10 ft.[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]Huge[/TD][TD]45 ft.[/TD][TD]60 ft. to 75 ft.[/TD][TD]15 ft.[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]Gargantuan[/TD][TD]60 ft.[/TD][TD]75 ft. to 100 ft.[/TD][TD]20 ft.[/TD][/TR][/TABLE]Skills: Bluff, Hide, and Survival are considered class skills for Faerûnian yellow dragons.A Faerûnian yellow dragon gains a +4 racial bonus on Hide checks when in sandy environments.
