[dice=Strength Check(?)]1d20+4

It is rusted shut. Nasir's attempt to force it open knocks some of the rust off, but doesn't quite succeed at opening it.

With no spells that can harm it, Roscoe is forced to rely on his crossbow, ineffective as it has been.

"Ouch! Thanks for the quick help, Doc and Ayita."

Frustrated with his near-hits, as a swift action Frantino will spend a point of divination mental focus on Sudden Insight, giving him a +2 to his attack roll. He'll move next to Yazhi and try to strike again.
