Triggering a Trap: A Trap is Triggered when a creature

other than you enters or leaves a Space occupied by the
Trap. Alternatively, you can spend 1 AP to Trigger a Trap
within 5 Spaces. When Triggered, the Trap makes an Attack
for free against the PD of a creature in its Space using your
Attack Check. This Attack ignores your Multiple Check
Penalty and doesn’t progress that penalty.
Hit: The Trap deals Bludgeoning, Piercing, or Slashing
damage (your choice when you Set the Trap) equal to
your Prime Modifier, plus the damage and effects of your
Hunter’s Strike (if used when you Set the Trap).
Recovering a Trap: You can spend 1 AP while within 1
Space of one of your Set Traps to disarm and recover the
use of the Trap. When you do, it loses any damage and
effects of your Hunter’s Mark (if applicable).

Example: A Hunter lays down a Trap 5 Spaces away and

chooses the Piercing damage option. They choose to spend
1 SP to add the Fire option from Hunter’s Strike to the Trap.
When the Trap is triggered, it makes an Attack Check to deal
Prime Piercing damage and 2 Fire damage as well as forcing
a Save against the Burning Condition.

Discerning Eye (Flavor

Feature)
You have ADV on Awareness Checks to discover Hidden
Traps and on Investigation Checks to discern how to
disarm them.
