The fierce winds that plagued travelers along the Thanatoph Ledge and blew them clear off the mountain has changed! No longer is it mere luck without consideration of the skills and abilities of those who travel there.

Climbing and Survival, as well as Strength, Dexterity, and Agility now play critical roles in preventing a fall. However, due to the severe nature of the winds in the area, survivability requires that hikers hunker down when blasted by the periodic strong gusts.

Nice to see that the occasional posts about Thanatoph shenanigans got some GM attention - thanks!

Neat! I'd like to see more areas like this where climbing/swimming/survival/perception can mitigate environmental effects or even provide some sort of relative advantage.

Hunker down while I'm beatin on a room fulla giants and trolls?

I was thinking it was some sort of mini game forcing you to pray to Illoke 5 times per hunt or suffer the fall if you didn't heed the call.
