My players are going to run into a statue garden. I want them to stay in the garden a fight a couple animated statues. I don't want them to just run to the other end and open the gate. So rather than say it's magically locked or something, I thought maybe I could make the gate a monster.
The party is level 3, 4 or 5 players. I'd like it to be an encounter with the gate and probably 2-4 statues.
Since the gate is stationary, I'm thinking it should have some kind of aura, and/or an attack with reach. But probably no ranged attacks. And I don't want the statues to activate until the gate is touched. So, maybe a power that can recharge which allows the gate to animate 1d4 of statues in the garden.
Anyone have any ideas for how I should put it together?
Thanks!!
