If there was a failure, they got a saving throw vs. Breath Weapon. <br /><br />The 2e DMG has a good section called Saving Throw Priority: it stats that Breath Weapon is used in situations where a combination of physical stamina and Dexterity are critical factors in character survival. <br /><br />I can't keep these straight either, I marked the page and wrote some notes in the book, we end up using that page at least once per game.<br /><br />It helps me correct the player's desires for high stats, but also it allows a fair backup for failed rolls. A second chance . . . if you are lucky.

Did you call for a single Dex check to cross the entire bridge, or was it more like one per half-mile?<br /><br />Which saving throw did you call for? I ask because I never really got a handle on winging it with the old school saves. I usually go with one Dex check to move along the obstacle, and second Dex check in the event of a complication such as failing the first.DM Theseushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17813921423303402143noreply@blogger.com
