"Is... Is that good? Do I succeed?
"Hang on. We need to math."
"Right. Um... Four. Add four. Eleven?"
"That's success! You may now feel the thrill of victory."
"YYYYEEEEEEAAAAHHHHH~!"

But it's not rolling past a tripwire. It's rolling through a trip wire, but ending far enough away to be out of the danger zone.

In this case, it's not getting caught in a trap that was probably designed to get people immediately behind whomever actually tripped it off, so avoiding that would require a fair amount of roll speed. On the other hand, she was running, so she had a fair amount of speed going into it. I could see that giving a situational modifier that turned what would normally be a much higher DC into a DC10.

2023-06-18 18:55:42 +0000 UTCI like that Ellen was worried that Nanase blew the dice roll and would get caught in her own trap. But it was also a roll in front of everyone else, so everyone saw what the result was. "Roll abvove 10 with bonuses" sounds like a reasonable requirement for success here.

2023-06-17 22:45:29 +0000 UTCProbably the latter, but not unreasonable for it to be the former. DC10's not unheard of for a basic acrobatics check to not eat shit

2023-06-17 20:44:58 +0000 UTCUnless it was supposed to be a moderately difficult check, then 15 would have been barely enough.

2023-06-17 10:00:57 +0000 UTCUsually it would have been an acrobatic check, and a 1st level Rogue should have a good skill level in it. It depend on what version of D&D you use. Considering when El Goonish Shive has started, they probably play D&D 3 or 3.5, possibly Pathfinder. In all those games the probable bonus to the roll was +8. A result of 15 generally should be more than enough.

Dan Shive
2023-06-17 06:02:24 +0000 UTCif it's a shrink trap, I'm going to be disappointed *shot*

2023-06-17 05:54:46 +0000 UTCFor rolling past a tripwire, i accept 10 as DC. No fudge needed

2023-06-17 03:46:17 +0000 UTCWonder if it actually was success, or it was fudged.
