| Text | This enchanted lock appears no different than its mundane equivalent. It requires a DC 15 Dexterity (Thieves' Tools) check to pick open. Each time a creature attempts to pick the lock and fails, the lock suddenly absorbs the lockpick and incorporates the material into its mechanism, effectively making the set of thieves' tools unusable. The DC to pick this lock then increases by 1, but can't increase above 25 in this way.
Pick-eating locks encountered in adventuring environments often have higher DCs as a result of previous adventurers' failed attempts.
