throw, and prone characters are treated as having cover against the
explosion’s damage.
Anyone caught within the listed blast radius must also aempt
a Fortitude save against a DC based on the explosion’s maximum
possible damage, as outlined in Table 11–12, or be stunned (the
character loses all Dexterity bonuses to AC, drops anything he’s
holding, is unable to take any action, and all enemies are at +2 to hit
him), for the listed duration.
There is also a reduced chance that anyone caught within an
extended radius equal to twice the listed blast radius will likewise
be stunned, although no actual damage is suffered. Prone characters
in the blast radius make Reflex saves as if they were standing up in
the extended blast radius for the purpose of stunning effects; those
actually in the extended blast radius are immune to being stunned
in this manner.
Spook Animal (Optional Rule)
Most animals are liable to panic when exposed to the crack of a
discharging firearm, the boom of artillery, or the thunder of a nearby
explosion. Any animal or magical beast that is within 10 feet of small

caliber (below .55), 20 feet of medium caliber (.55 to .69), or 30 feet of
large caliber (above .69, including all artillery) fire, or within three
times the blast radius of exploding ordnance, must make a Will save
against the DC shown on Table 11-13: Spooking Animals. On a
failed save, the animal is frightened. On a roll of a 1, or if the animal
was already frightened when aempting the save, the animal is
panicked instead.
Frightened animals flee the source of the noise, until they are
at least 10 times further away than the distances above (e.g., 100
feet when fleeing small caliber fire, 30 times the blast radius of
an exploding shell), and then regain control of themselves. A
frightened animal can choose the path of its flight. Panicked animals
flee at least that same distance but on a random path, having no
choice where they go so long as it is away from the source of the
noise. Once they have reached the minimum fleeing distance, they
continue to run if their fear is reinforced by more loud noises (no
saving throw necessary) or by other dangers. Both frightened and
panicked animals are shaken, suffering a –2 penalty on aack rolls,
saving throws, and skill and ability checks.
An animal’s rider or handler can substitute a Handle Animal or
Wild Empathy check for the Will save.
