Idol of Evil
This trap is activated when a creature touches its surface, which causes a shrine to glow. There's a dark shrine in the middle of the area.
Effect: Targets all good creatures that touch it, DC 14 WIS save or take 12 (4d10) damage
Trigger: touch trigger, activates when surface is touched by a creature.
Countermeasures: A spell or other effect that can sense the presence of magic, such as detect magic, reveals an aura of divination magic around the surface. A successful dispel magic (DC 14) cast on the surface destroys the trap.
Box of Brown Mold
This trap activates when a ruby or other valuable item is pried from a statue or other surface, that opens a box containing dangerous mold that immediately attacks. There's a small box next to the trigger.
Effect: Targets all creatures within 5 ft., DC 14 CON save or take 31 (4d10) poison damage and be poisoned for 2 hours
Trigger: removal trigger, activates when a gem or other valuable item is removed.
Countermeasures: A successful DC 15 Intelligence (Investigation) check allows a character to find a wire attached to the item which triggers the trap when pulled. A successful DC 15 Dexterity check using thieves' tools disables the trip wire harmlessly. A character without thieves' tools can attempt this check with disadvantage using any edged weapon or edged tool. On a failed check, the trap triggers. Cold damage can destroy the mold, rendering the trap harmless.
Destroying Traps
Traps can be damaged and destroyed, sometimes to good or bad effect. Pipes containing fire or poison will rupture and spray over the area, while mechanisms can be rendered inoperable with enough force. Determine the HP and AC of your traps based on the tables below. Sometimes a fragile trap is more dangerous than a resilient one if destroying it will fill the corridor with acid.
| Substance | AC |
|---|---|
| Cloth, paper, rope | 11 |
| Crystal, glass, ice | 13 |
| Wood, bone | 15 |
| Stone | 17 |
| Iron, steel | 19 |
| Mithral | 21 |
| Adamantine | 23 |
| Size | HP (Fragile) | HP (Resilient) |
|---|---|---|
| Tiny (bottle, lock) | 1 (1d4) | 8 (2d4) |
| Small (chest, lute) | 4 (1d6) | 7 (3d6) |
| Medium (barrel, chandelier) | 8 (1d8) | 9 (4d8) |
| Large (cart, 10x10 ft. window) | 9 (1d10) | 35 (5d10) |
