Deadly Workshop

A workshop strung with a lethal lattice of chains, each link studded with hidden blades and wired through a complex system of pulleys that sets the whole room swinging at once. Spotting the blades and their pulleys takes Stealth +16 (expert).

Disable it with Thievery DC 20 (expert) on the control panel on the raised platform to deactivate the trap. The chains have AC 21, Fort +12, Ref +14, Hardness 14, and 50 HP (BT 25) to destroy the chains and disable the trap; they are immune to critical hits, object immunities, and precision damage.

Swinging Blades [Reaction] (attack)

Routine (1 action) The trap swings one slashing blade against every creature in the workshop as 1 action. The entire workshop is treated as difficult terrain because of the sheer number of slashing chains. This trap doesn't take a multiple attack penalty. Each slashing blade attacks at +15 for 2d8+7 slashing damage.
