d12 Secret Door Mechanisms





































Bonk is a famous grumpy tomato frog

One thing I felt was neglected was details on secret doors.

In my games, I have a spot skill and if you spend 10 min in a square you get a stat roll
Skilled get a full stat to save, unskilled half - then various bonuses for items etc
Possibly some doors I might allow a harder save (stat bonus score only)
Some doors easier to find by touch or sound than sight
