Search

Search is used to detect traps, find hidden objects, and secret doors.
 * Ability: Intelligence
 * Classes: All
 * Requires Training: No
 * Check: Detecting a trap is an opposed test, pitting the characterâ€™s Search check against a DC equal to the Set Trap skill check, plus the strength of the trap. Only Rogue may detect traps with a DC greater than 35.
 * Special: The search range is 5 ft. if passively searching, 10 ft. if actively searching. Elf and Dwarf receive a +2 bonus to their Search checks and Half-Elf gain a +1 bonus.
 * Use: Search is part of the Detect modal action. In Passive Detect mode, checks are made automatically every round. Active Detect mode is a modal action that reduces the characterâ€™s normal movement rate and performs an Active Search, as well as Spot and Listen checks.
