Header: Traps! Characters will generally have a chance to resist/save to evade the trap or survive its effects. Apply the appropriate rules of your game. The description of the room should give clues, especially if the characters are searching for traps.

Table: Traps
[|One person falls|two people fall|the entire party falls] {1d10*10} feet, taking damage as appropriate, due to a [|floor which can't support one person's weight.|hidden trapdoor. [@Triggers]|magically disappearing section of floor. [@Triggers]]
[@GasCloud] [@Triggers]
[|Daggers|Spikes|Arrows|Poison darts] shoot out from a hidden mechanism in the wall. [@Triggers]
A beam of arcane energy [|sweeps across the room at a height of {1d3+1} feet|shoots from the middle of one wall to the middle of another wall|sweeps through the room targeting everyone present|targets one character per round|zaps anyone touching a particular object]. Anyone struck by the beam (who fails to dodge) is teleported [@Teleportation] [@Triggers]
Anyone who fails to dodge is sprayed with a [|jet of liquid|cloud of mist], which makes them more likely to be smelled by predators. [@Triggers]
An alarm sounds, and will call many hostile creatures within the next {2d6} minutes. [||In addition, a net drops, trapping anyone who fails to get out of the way.] [@Triggers]
A door slides open, revealing a hidden alcove containing an unliving guardian. [@Triggers]
Rocks fall [|behind|ahead of] the heroes. It will take {3d6} [|hours|minutes] to clear the obstacle, divided by the number of people working. [|The rocks are unstable and any vibration will cause their collapse.|[@Triggers]]
An anti-magic field may cause magic items to temporarily or permanently lose their properties. Magic creatures, and living magic items, will suffer damage or be destroyed, but will also be likely to sense the field from far away. [@Triggers]
Smoke [|rises from the floor|pours through openings in the walls|pours down through openings in the ceiling], obscuring the heroes' vision. [||[@GasCloud]] [@Triggers]
The walls and floor turn to slippery ice and the temperature drops. Characters with poor balance are likely to fall, and may be unable to get up or move. They may also suffer damage from the severe cold. Many of the dungeon's inhabitants may return to their lairs until the effect passes. It lasts {20*1d6} minutes. [@Triggers]
4:A pit opens up. [@Pit] [@Triggers]
The doors seal and the room begins to flood with water. It will reach the ceiling and then drain after {4d6} minutes. [@Triggers]
With a rumble, the doors close and the walls begin to move in. Everything in the room will be crushed within {1d6} minutes. [@Triggers]
The doors seal and the room begins to fill with a shallow layer of a highly flammable liquid. After {2d6} rounds, it will ignite. [@Triggers]
The walls begin to glow and within {1d6} rounds the room is so bright anyone with unprotected eyes will be blinded. [@Triggers]
The walls grow warm and then begin to glow red and then white hot. Within {1d6+2} rounds anyone in direct contact with walls, floor, or ceiling of the room will suffer severe burns. Those insulated (e.g. by standing on furniture) may be protected. [@Triggers]
Magical darkness fills the room. [@Triggers]
An arc of lightning bursts into existence, from the middle of one wall to the middle of the opposite wall. There is a smell of ozone and anything flammable near the lightning will ignite. The arc continues, serving as a sort of lightning wall, for {1d10*10} minutes. [@Triggers]
A [|panel|trapdoor|vent] opens in the [|wall|ceiling] releasing thousands of [|scorpions|snakes (why did it have to be snakes?)|bees|biting ants]. [@Triggers]
Thick, hot syrupy wax pours into the room from several directions. After it fills the room to a height of {2d6-1} feet, it will cool and harden. [@Triggers]
Thin molten wax pours into the room from several points. It is highly flammable and will be ignited by any contact with flame. After {2d6} [|rounds|minutes] it will be ignited by the trap. [@Triggers]
The entire room falls {1d10*10} feet down a shaft like a broken elevator. The characters take appropriate falling damage. [@Triggers]
The entire circular room begins to spin. The characters will be thrown hard against the outside wall if they are not already adjacent to it, and then will suffer extreme dizziness and nausea when it stops in {1d6} [|rounds|minutes]. [@Triggers]
Thunderous noise leaves the party stunned and deafened. [@Triggers]
