Lexicon of Traps

ADD TO WISHLIST >
Suggested Price $1.50

Picture the scene. You running a game for a bunch of PC's. You've spent ages creating a dungeon. You've slaved over it. You've put your heart and soul into it. What's one of the first things the party does?
They kick the doors down, kill the guards and run off with the treasure. They probably giggled as well.
Well not any more. Now you can make the party a bit more nervous about kicking down that door, or simply looting the first chest they see for any treasure contained therein.
How?
Traps, that's how.
Now that door will cut into the person who kicks it in, now that chest will spray a contact glue onto the party's thief for daring to pick that chest open.
Done right, your players will get suspicious and any thing that looks too good to be true.
Only a few of the traps contained within here are actually lethal, you don't want to kill the party. It's much more fun to watch them limp home, bleeding and crying, saying and making rude comments and gestures to the dungeon entrance and yelling "Damn you!"
For the more sadistic DM's each of the traps contained herein has an optional effect, to make things more...interesting, more deadly, and make your players characters more afraid of what's to come.
Also included in this book are some skills/feat that make things easier for some , worse for others.
Now go and have some fun and watch your players squirm....

Designers note :
The majority of this book has been kept as system neutral(in that it's not tied to any game world) as possible with regards to costs and other subjective cost etc. for items, e.g. 100.
In terms of gaming system, it's been designed to go with D20 systems.
Costs will be in the primary currency units in your game, for example: Gold, leaves, small turtles, whatever you use.
Each trap also comes with a bit of background, quotes or other fluff you can give your players, or, use for adventure seeds etc.

Years ago I read a copy of GrimTooth's Traps. It was a difficult experience, because although funny, it seemed to mainly provide the DM with ways in which to extinguish characters which then had to be explained at length because of the mechanical compl [...]

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.
