| ====== Balance ====== | |
| |
| **Time Required**: +1 second\\ | |
| **Skill**: Acrobatics (Untrained) | |
| |
| You move across a surface that is less than 30cm in width. Add the time required for this action to the time taken to [[unbound:actions:Step]] or [[unbound:actions:Walk]], but you cannot Balance if you [[unbound:actions:Run]] or [[unbound:actions:Sprint]]. You must make an Acrobatics check against a TN determined by the width of the surface. The table below gives these values. | |
| |
| ^ Width ^ TN ^ | |
| | 16-30cm | 12 | | |
| | 5-15cm | 15 | | |
| | Less than 5cm | 18 | | |
| | Surface is unstable | +3 | | |
| |
| * **Success**: You cross the surface safely. If you do not make it all the way across, you may need to take this action again. | |
| * **Failure**: You make no progress, being forced to adjust your balance again. You must immediately make a second Acrobatics check against the same TN. If you fail the second check, you fall off the surface. | |

| Having thrown a rope across a ten-meter-wide chasm and drawn it taut, Eldrin attempts to Walk across it to the other side. (His companions think that this is not a wise move, but he ignores them.) Being less than 5cm in width, his rope inflicts a TN of 18, though at least it is taut enough not to count as an unstable surface. However, Eldrin's Acrobatics is only a +2. He rolls a total of 21, getting six meters across, but there's another four meters to cross. He then rolls a 9, and fails to make any further progress. Worse, he must immediately roll again, and this time, he gets a 7. He plummets into the chasm... | |
