The Putrid Rise

Trigger The trap's sensors notice a creature on the stairs north of the entrance to area D4 --- Effect The myriad mouths on the walls spew out a foul-smelling acidic slurry along the entire stairwell. The stairs in areas D3 become difficult terrain, and all creatures in area D3 must attempt a DC 34 reflex saving throw. A creature that is Fatigued by hunger takes a -2 circumstance penalty to this saving throw. The trap then rolls initiative. --- Critical Success The creature is unaffected. Success The creature takes 4d6 acid damage and is Sickened 1. Failure The creature takes 8d6 acid damage, is Sickened 2, and is knocked Prone. Critical Failure The creature takes 16d6 acid damage, is Sickened 3, is knocked prone, and then tumbles down the stairs. The fall ends once the creature reaches the next lowest landing (note that a creature falling at the lowest flight tumbles into the carrion pit at area D2 , but can attempt to Grab an Edge as detailed in that room). A creature that falls down the steps takes an additional 4d6 bludgeoning damage (DC 32 reflex) from the tumble, regardless of the total distance traveled.
