PublicationPathfinder #158: Sixty Feet Under

This surprisingly sturdy 3-foot-by-3-foot clay tile resembles a thick pressure plate. It can support up to 500 pounds of weight atop it before it is destroyed. The floorbell's nature is obvious at a glance, but mundane or magical means can obscure or camouflage the tile (such as by covering it in scattered leaves or by casting an Illusory Object spell) to make it harder to detect.


Activate 2 command, Interact

Effect The floorbell must be activated on level ground. When you do, specify the amount of weight that triggers the floorbell's alarm system. When the amount of weight you specify (or more) is placed on the floorbell, it emits an ear-piercing wail clearly audible to a range of 150 feet. A floorbell can also ring an alarm if a weight you specify is removed from the floorbell, such as if you activated it while a heavy sack was on it.


Trait Effects

Magical: Something with the magical trait is imbued with magical energies not tied to a specific tradition of magic. Some items or effects are closely tied to a particular tradition of magic. In these cases, the item has the arcane, divine, occult, or primal trait instead of the magical trait. Any of these traits indicate that the item is magical.
