Message: <blockquote data-quote="Harzel" data-source="post: 6973748" data-attributes="member: 6857506"><p>If for some reason you do not like Max's scenario, here is another.  There is a 10 ft. wide corridor that is 200 ft. long.  At one end it opens into the lair of a young red dragon.  At the other end there is a kobold hidden behind a spy hole peering out into the corridor.  Another kobold is similarly positioned at the corridor's midpoint.  A party of PCs enters the corridor at the non-lair end.  One PC, a halfling thief, is scouting in front, maintaining a distance of 50 ft. between himself and the rest of the party.  While moving down the corridor, the thief succeeds on his move silently rolls and sneaks past both kobolds unnoticed.  However, the rest of the party is spotted by both kobolds.  The first kobold triggers a silent alarm that notifies the dragon of intruders.  The dragon quietly positions himself just around the corner of his end of the corridor.  The second kobold likewise triggers an alarm when the main part of the party passes him.  After the second alarm, the dragon waits a few moments, then steps in front of the end of the corridor, pokes his head in and cuts loose with his breath weapon.  Both the thief and the rest of the party are surprised.  And as it happens, the dragon's timing is such that the rest of the party is 80 ft. away, which is what the dragon was counting on, and the thief is 30 ft. away, which the dragon has no idea about.  What happens to the thief (keeping in mind that by the time it has gone 30 ft., the breath weapon cone will be 10 ft. wide)?</p></blockquote><p></p>
