Landslide
Recent rains or heavy snow has rendered a nearby slope quite perilous. A landslide is set off by any loud noise such as conversation, music, spellcasting, fleeing animals, the cracking of a fallen tree branch, thud of a rolling stone, or any substantial impacts on the ground.
Each adventurer must make a Strength saving throw . On a success, they are carried 2d12 yards down the slope; on a failure, they are carried twice that far and suffer a level of fatigue .
Realize Danger. Any adventurer that makes a Nature check recognizes that the ground or snow ahead is unstable, and that loud noises or rough impacts could trigger a landslide.
Spell Solve. Spells that produce water or heat can melt and refreeze a snow-based landslide, while a spell that can shape earth can solidify an earthen landslide.
- If the party realizes the danger of the landslide, a group check using Acrobatics or Stealth lets them pass without setting the landslide off.
- Making a group Athletics check allows the adventurers to cross after the landslide, but on a failure, they set off a second landslide.
- A Survival check finds animal tracks showing a safe way around the area.
