[QUOTE="Bad Paper, post: 3237563, member: 24674"] yay for grammar geeks ending sentences prepositions with! I agree with [b]AuraSeer[/b] 96%. However, it's a heroic effort on a nifty riddle and setup. Aside from the grammar, you should consider: 1) being a little more descriptive of the room, to add too much information. e.g. "To the south is a one foot smooth granite cube resting on an oaken pedestal. On the floor in the southwest corner is a similar cube, split cleanly along the diagonal. Cobwebs and dust cover it, as well as the rest of the floor." Or whatever. Note that with some good questions, the party can determine that the illusory cube is strangely the only thing in the room [i]not[/i] covered in dust and cobwebs. 2) The entity that designed this trap does not have to have perfect grammar! Let the party be smarter than it/he/she! When they catch up to the BBEG, give them XP for giving it/him/her hell over a poorly worded yet easily solved trap! I say to run it as-is. [/QUOTE]
