Zafron will move up to the door. He will look for any hinges that provide any insight as to which way the door might open. Is the door made of wood, stone, or iron?

The door is well seasoned oak and opens away ftom the party, thus the hinges are not visible currently but expected to be on the other side.

"Look at the walls around the door. There may be a mechanism to operate it." Galan suggests. "If not we can try to force it open together. Or look for a secret door nearby."

That is what i have been doing. he clarifies. I don't see anything odd, but you all are welcome to double check.

Zafron will try to push open the door. He will try to push it open.

Galan will join forces

Galan and Zafron begin to shove against the door to force it open, suddenly the stuck door springs open fully, threatening to dump them to the floor beyond. The Dwarf and the Elf nearly topple forward onto the floor beyond, but their quick reflexes save them at the last moment. The hallway extends another twenty feet before ending in an almost identically looking door.

Bryce nudges Tabbi and chuckles. This place sure has a lot of fun tricks doesn't it. he grins

"Wooha... phew! That was close. Ready for the next door?" Galan smiles but let the scouts check for traps before following.

Zafron and Tabbi examen the pit in front of them. How deep is it? Are there spikes on the floor of the pit? How long and wide is it? Is there any way around it like a leg? Can Tabbi determined if the walls and be easily scaled around the pit?

Can the walls of the pit be scaled?

Zafron says, "if there are spikes on the floor of the pit, I say we try to damage them just for safe keeping."

Can we jump over the pit?

Van yells from the back.
"Another pit? Are you sure you aren't seeing things?"

Prodding the floor just beyond the newly oppened door reveals a pit trap about 10 feet deep with large spikes at the bottom; apparently identical to thoae found in the first great hall. The pit's size poses a different kind of issue, however. Being the full width of the hall, it leaves no way to cross via traditional means...

10ftx10ft wide pit takes up the first half of the short hallway. No edge on the sides by the wall to Walk.

climbing the walls will be at normal chances of success. Jumping is possible, those with the jumping nwp can clear it without a check. Otherwise i'll have to dig up my notes. Leaning towards a straight str check for those unencumbered (movement 12/12) and 1 lt penalty for every 2 points below 12 base movement (so small creature with 6 base move start with a -3 penalty if unencumbered)...
there are much safer ways than jumping
