[QUOTE="Maxperson, post: 8277094, member: 23751"] If you enter a bedroom, you can search the dresser with a search check, or independent of those rules you can... 1. Check the bottoms of the drawers for hollow bottoms. I used to pull them out and line them up side by side to see if any bottoms were visibly higher than the others. I also turned them over in case the underside was higher or lower, or if anything was stuck to the bottom as a hiding spot. 2. Check the back of the dresser by knocking on it to find any hollow areas that might be hiding treasure. 3. Reach up inside the empty drawer spots to see if anything was attached to the top of the inside of the drawer. 4. Look inside to see if anything was attached to the back behind the drawers. 5. Turn the desk over to see if anything is attached to the bottom. 6. Knock on the bottom of the dresser listening for hollow sections. None of that is mother-may-I. You aren't asking if you can do anything, but instead telling the DM what it is that you are doing to find any treasure hidden within the dresser. Nor are you trying to guess/game the DM. [/QUOTE]
