If you apply a dose of rusting powder to a metal lock as part of using the [[Disable Device]] skill, you gain a +5 circumstance bonus to open the lock. After the skill check is resolved, the mechanism is destroyed and cannot be used afterward. A destroyed lock remains in whatever position it was in (locked or unlocked) when it was destroyed, and cannot be altered without breaking it (likely via a Sunder maneuver). | ||
Rusting powder is sold in a paper tube; you apply it by tearing the ends off the tube and blowing the flakes into the target device. Rusting powder easily affects iron and steel, but does not affect non-ferrous metals, such as mithril, gold or adamantine. | Rusting powder is sold in a paper tube; you apply it by tearing the ends off the tube and blowing the flakes into the target device.
