Mining Detection Abilities
From 2e Players Handbook
Dwarves are miners of great skill. While underground, they can detect the following information when within 10 feet of the particular phenomenon (but they can determine their approximate depth below the surface at any time).
- Detect grade or slope in passage: 1-5 on 1d6
- Detect new tunnel/passage construction: 1-5 on 1d6
- Detect sliding/shifting walls or rooms: 1-4 on 1d6
- Detect stonework traps, pits, and deadfall: 1-3 on 1d6
- Determine approximate depth underground: 1-3 on 1d6
Note that the dwarf must deliberately try to make these determinations; the information does not simply spring to mind unbidden.
