Environmental · Mechanical
Stealth DC 18 to notice a half-supported trunk balanced above the patrol gap.
Disable Athletics DC 18 to secure the trunk or Nature DC 18 to find a safe way around it.
Trigger A creature climbs or pushes against the unstable trunk.
Effect The log drops across a 10-foot line. Creatures in the line attempt a DC 18 basic Reflex save against 2d8 bludgeoning damage; on a critical failure a target also falls prone.
Reset One-use deadfall; fallen wood becomes difficult terrain and provides cover.
GM Guidance. Players can intentionally trigger it against a pursuing blight patrol if they spot it first. This is a custom campaign hazard; verify XP separately from the area monster roster.
