| Obstacles block region exits. As such, they are considered to occupy regions on both sides of the exit. When an Obstacle is defeated (commonly through damage or [[Lockpick|Lockpick]]), it no longer blocks the exit. Sometimes other Challenges can move freely through Obstacles; the scenario design will specify when this is the case. | Obstacles block region exits.

Such Obstacles recover their EP to full for a given entity whenever that entity successfully Moves into another region, even if it was defeated for that entity. In order to play an [[Action|Action]] against a Persisting Obstacle, an entity must attempt to Move through the blocked exit; this results in an immediate play of an Action. This does not cost the Action Phase, may occur out of turn, and may be attempted multiple times per round (so long as Move options exist). If the Obstacle is defeated, the attacking entity passes through the exit (and may continue movement if Speed remains). If the Obstacle is not defeated, the Move is canceled regardless of Speed. |

Climbing Obstacles have [[Height|Height]] values associated with them, which add falling damage and other properties.
