[QUOTE="Saeviomagy, post: 5009880, member: 5890"] I'd expand your concept of what the skill challenge includes so that it covers more. For instance: The woman approaches them, obviously frantic and panicked, to the point where she is just wildly raving instead of being coherent. The skill challenge becomes not ONLY to lift the rocks, but to find the rockfall in the first place. So: Social skills to soothe the woman and get more information on the rockfall out of her. Knowledge nature to find the location of the rockfall by working out where the cliff (or whatever) is unsound. The same could go for dungeoneering. History should give the knowledge of a previous, large rockfall that happened in the past. Athletics and perception will let you find the rockfall by doing flat-foot work (athletics lets you move quicker, perception lets you spot things faster) Athletics, endurance, thievery, dungeoneering and nature can be used to move rocks effectively. Perception and social skills can be used to more accurately direct the search. Perception could also be used to look out for shifting rocks to help move them safely. The social skills can be used to keep the child calm (and if he's injured, that will stop him from bleeding out). Heal can also be used to tend to the child while rocks are moved. [/QUOTE]
