**you guys keep trying to sneak in your proficient skills, i feel like this would be more sleight of hand, but that would still be a 15**
You sit and wait and watch the blades patterns, and when you feel the time is right push your shield forward. The blade clangs against the shield and pauses there, allowing you all to step over.
Ehhhh Slight of hand is more trying to do something without being noticed by someone else such as pickpocketing, reverse pickpocketing, or lockpicking.
Whenever you attempt an act of legerdemain or manual trickery, such as planting something on someone else or concealing an object on your person, make a Dexterity (Sleight of Hand) check. The GM might also call for a Dexterity (Sleight of Hand) check to determine whether you can lift a coin purse off another person or slip something out of another person's pocket.
Regardless if you feel another roll is better just take our sheets and reroll whatever the skill is with our bonuses, problem solved!
Thrash will watch Rajiira approach the blades and stop them with a precision thrust of her shield. Impressed, Thrash will give her a nod and a smile has he proceeds to step over the stuck blade.
**I prefer to keep the roll you made and adjust the modifier for you if i need to. The Acrobatics desc didn't seem right either, its more balance on your feet sort of situations. I thought of it as you 'planting' a shield into the doorway with precision hand movements.**
**that brings up a good point for all of you, if you aren't sure what roll to make just roll a blank d20 and tell me what your different modifiers are, that way you aren't rolling multiple times**
Tisnip will be the last through (besides Rajiira, if she's actually holding her shield there?), wanting to make sure the others get through safe before going to safety herself.
ALustine smiles broadly at Rajiira as he steps through the door. "You are truly quick on your feet! In my story I will make the trap more complex, but your steady hand and swift thinking will certainly shine through on its own! And that fight against Lorgoth! You will see that epic battle reenacted on the stage one day, this I promise!!" He then starts humming a battle tune, stops, thinks a moment, and starts again - the same song but in a minor key, adding a sense of fear and desperation.
You all make it back out into the attic hall, thanks to Rajiira's quick thinking. You notice more changes in the house. The windows in all the rooms are all bricked up, most of the doors have the same swinging blades as the last doorway. Luckily the stairway back down to the third floor looks clear.
Thrash will look to Tyriok while shuffling down the stairs, holding his side and flinching with each step "Sure... blame it on the pillars, I bet this was all an elaborite security system designed to go off just in case someone damaged a pillar.. maybe it is to make sure that no one can escape the house if there is ever an earthquake! The look on Thrash's face will change from annoyance to regret "I am sorry about trying to crush Lorgoth alright! It was a dumb idea OK.... I didn't mean to put everyone in more danger than we were already... his eyes moving from Tyriok to the floor as he continues to walk.

Rajiira thanks you uh.. Alustine. Forgive this one, she is not good with names. But this one appreciates it.. atleast if I were to die, I would live on, in some small part through it. and with that she would head near one of the other scythed doors, pondering for a moment or two. Rajiira wishes to see something before we run down the obvious hall. Please forgive this one, but she simply must sate this.
With that, taking her shield much as she had before, watching, and waiting like she had before, would again thrust her shield in, in an attempt to see what was on the other side... on the off chance it might be an exit, or perhaps some curio, or rare item was there. SoH roll: 14
Thrash will look up an notice Rajiira inspecting one of the trapped doorways "I would have liked to have looted more from this place as well, but I think we need to get out of here" looking at her with concern as she attempts to stop another scythe.
( heading to bed after this post, too tired to stay up. To be honest I can't remember which door is where or what floor on. So I apologize for being a bad player! But whichever one is closest to the stairwell that everyone's going to.)
Rajiira would hear thrash and not her understanding, but she refused to be stopped this time. She was going to check at least one if she could because something kept nagging at the back of her skull. She assured him that if nothing was there she would check no more. And if there was she would attempt to grab it and leave.
Thrash, watching the shield dissapear behind the deadly blade wall will say to Rajiira "I will make you a new shield if we get out of here... in the mean time.. please take mine" Thrash will struggle to lift his shield arm as he offers it to her. "The added weight on that arm is only hindering me anyway at this point"
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Rajiira considered things for a moment, she had lost hers, but she wasn't going to risk someone eases for her own curiosity. She had at-least tried, if nothing else. She took the shield, and 'sheathed' it, before joining the rest of the group not intending to risk wasting another one, even if there could be something amazing beyond it. Rajiira will not risk yours, and.. there's always the possibility that there are more below.. atleast If I will risk them it will be for the path out. And not to sate my own desires. She did look a little diheartened at her failure but only a little, atleast she had succeeded when it counted.
With that, she would take advantage of the height the stairs provided her, watchign as they went down, to see if there was some new hell-spawned horror ahead of them, or if they truly were in an empty hellhouse.
Perception for danger, and possibly loot off in some hidden corner.. she knows somethings gotta be here!: 8
Alustine walks carefully down the stairs, looking for traps or pitfalls. "This seems too convenient - only one way down and everything else trapped. But we know of no other way out except through the door below, so it seems we must continue on this path. If we should find a place to rest, I'm sure we could all use the break..." He will look for anyplace they could hole up for a few hours.

Tyriok tilts his head. "I bet you this is all because we killed the guy in there... or maybe it happened when we destroyed the pillars..."

Rajiira pushes the shield just a bit too far in and the blade hits it at an angle sending it skittering in to the room.
Thrash, watching the shield dissapear behind the deadly blade wall will say to Rajiira "I will make you a new shield if we get out of here... in the mean time.. please take mine" Thrash will struggle to lift his shield arm as he offers it to her.

She's just too unperceptive to see it! XD
