1000 ideas to get a TPK

As Gm's we really can't deliberately design TPK dungeons for our players, but that doesn't mean we can't dream! To get things started:


1) While exploring an ancient Dwarven Fortress, long abandoned, the party walkl across a large open chamber, as the last PC crosses a specific point near the middle of the chamber the entire floor collapse and tumbles our heroes into the room below, which is filled 20 feet deep with Black Pudding.

2) A lich with a new unique spell Sphere of Annhilation Swarm

3) The party is at an enormous Inn that is off the beaten path by a bit, the only patrons are them and a party of five warriors in brightly colored Scale Mail Armor. The warriors are telling tales of brave adventurers who sought to slay dragons. Adorning the walls of the Inn are mementos of each ofthe adventurers they name. They ask the PC's if they have any interesteing stories about dragon slaying..... Then each of the Ancient Wyrm/Sorcerors cast Dispel on themselves, canceling their Polymorph Self spells... mayhem ensues.

4) The Party gets a magical flying ship, and their archenemy casts Mordenkainen's Disjunction on it at 5,000 feet...

5) Run them through Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil, when the party is 4th level.

13) Same vein, " Hey, the Book of Vile Darkness has stats on Demogorgon...
