Spike Launcher

commonMechanicalTrap

Four hidden launchers wired to a trip line, each loaded to spit a spike at anything that crosses. Trip the wrong thread and the volley comes from every angle at once.

Disable DC 16 Thievery to disable one of the four launchers, or DC 12 Acrobatics to step over a trip line (this doesn't disarm the trap, but avoids triggering it).
