Delay Malfunction
Technology feat
Delay Malfunction is a D&D 3.5 feat (Technology) from WRPG, p. 109. You know how to make last-minute repairs to malfunctioning equipment, adjustments that keep a device running a little longer.
Benefit
When a device malfunctions, you may make a DC 15 Craft (technological device) check. If you succeed, the device operates normally for 1d3 rounds, giving you a chance to finish the job you are doing, make an emergency repair, or get clear before it blows up. If you roll a natural 20 on the check, the malfunction is completely averted. You cannot try again for any specific malfunction, even after a successful use of this feat.
Special
Goblin characters can avoid the malfunction entirely by rolling a natural 19 or 20 on the check. A tinker may select Delay Malfunction as one of his tinker bonus feats.
