Trap Ideas

[Tugor]

stasis trap - triggering this trap will stun\paralyze the picker for a small amount of time. Possibly dangerous for those that pick in hunting areas.

plague\disease trap - triggering this trap will cause the picker to become afflicted with some kinda flesh eating disease which should look pretty nasty, maybe even make the sickness contagious

hand\wrist smasher thingy trap - like one of those traps hunters set. .you step on it and it triggers, serreated edges slamming around your ankle. . .like that but hands\wrists

sticky trap - triggering this trap will cause the box to emit a highly adhesive material, causing the box to get stuck to their hands

will'o'the wisp trap - triggering this trap causes the box to emit a series of hypnotizing lights, causing the picker to wander away a few rooms following something only they can see

curse of gemrem trap - heh im sure you can imagine what this trap does, triggering it inflicts the picker with the curse of gemrem for a small duration

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Also need some 'funny' traps, but I think make em a bit more rare

laughing gas trap - triggering this trap will fill the room with laughing gas and everyone in it to be affected by it(no skill checks), causing them to do really bizarre things causing RT and such

comedian trap - triggering this trap will cause the picker to tell bad jokes for a small amount of time(not sure if the joke telling should be automatic or just anytime they try and say something)

asapi trap - triggering this trap will cause the picker to speak like an asapi(ie bizarre insults) for a small amount of time(not sure if they should fling insults automatically or just everytime they try and speak)



Thats all I can think of for now.

I don't really see mimics as something taken from another game, just because they've been in so many games, I don't even know where they originated.

[HR-Trevor]

As far as I know, D&D, but I would not be shocked if they originated before that, if not as a game element, as some sort of mythology. I guess it could even be likened to Pandora's box on some level.

Voice throwing boxes:
-Individual effect for smaller critters.. the picker will be unable to speak from his or her own lips, whatever he/she says will come from say the sign, the note, the shelf, or other players.
-Room effet for higher ups... noone in the room when the trap goes off will be bale to speak from their own lips... maybe have it so that whatever is said will always come from other players mouths, I think that would be absolutely hilarious.

There are tons of really good idea's in here, I think critter boxes, with greater treasure inside was my favorite though

[Seth Ventril]

I am gonna make the request that poison boxes be randomized. Sure pain/black vial can be fatal, but the other ones can be just as debilitating. Psion field-picks a poison trap: It's draining or helplessness...Either their focus is drained by significant amounts, or intel/ment reduced heavily. Immobilization and plague...Don't even need an example for these. Would be great to some of the other poisons in the spotlight for once, as it is people only know black vial and immobilization exist.
