Warden of Thunder (RotR)


Rules Questions and Gameplay Discussion


This is an adventure 6 monster who has the following powers:

Before the encounter, each character at this location must succeed at a Dexterity or Acrobatics 14 check or be dealt 1d4 Electricity damage.

Damage dealt by the Warden of Thunder is dealt to each character at this location.

So my party of 3 assembles at the last open location and encounters this. Nobody can successfully manage the dex/acro check and they roll 2,3,3 for damage. Does each character take 8 electricity damage or just their individual rolls?

That looks awfully similar to Galenmir and or Teraktinus, which have the following resolution in the FAQ.

On Galenmir and Teraktinus, how does the "damage is dealt to each character at the location" power interact with the "before the encounter" power?

It doesn't.

Resolution: On the villains Galenmir and Teraktinus, change the second power on each to the following:

Damage dealt by [Galenmir during the check|Teraktinus during the checks] is dealt to each character at this location]

I would expect the intent is just to take the individual rolls. Perhaps this card was missed in the FAQ round-up?

I thought I'd seen a similar issue before but I failed my search check today. Thanks for the fast response!!!
