Picking Up, Carrying, and Throwing Smaller Characters


Advice


Hi there!

Are there any rules about how to go about picking up, carrying, and then maybe throwing other willing characters?

It came up a couple of times during my Beginner Box GMing session, and my players tried to do this with one of their smaller characters, picking her up to move her and then throwing her to a safer spot. I wasn't sure the rules for it, so I let them pick her up but not throw her, and I think they caught on that I wasn't sure about it so they decided not to do it again since they know I'm new to GMing and nervous so they wanted to give me an easy time.

However I am now running Blood Lords, and looking at the group set up, I see this obviously coming up at *some* point again given there are a few small characters again, and wanted to see if there were any rules in Pathfinder 2e for this, OR if anyone has houserules that I could follow.

Breaking it down, I'm asking for guidance on the following:

(assume that these characters are all willing allies, I use grapple rules for unwilling)
1. Picking up another character.
2. Letting that character ride on you like on your shoulders.
3. Throwing that character (whether out of or into the fray).

Thank you!


1 person marked this as a favorite.

1) Bulk of creatures

2) Riding PCs It is kinda buried in the Sprite ancestry rules.

3) Friendly Toss

Those also make good basis for houserules.


Thank you! Those are perfect!
