Message: <blockquote data-quote="Warrior Poet" data-source="post: 67886" data-attributes="member: 1057">Would it be far-fetched to maybe rig a few alchemist fire jars with blackfire instead of alchemist fire?Hmmm ... just checking my boxed set now ... let's see ...I know the academy hasn't technically learned all the secrets from the necrohazards yet, but that might be pretty effective, unless the party is totally resistant to blackfire.  Are you even using blackfire in the conversion?  Maybe a Will save (are they heavy on the fighter types?) at -2 (just like it sez on page 44 of the RttToH book for those of you following along with the home game), then subsequent Will or maybe Fort saves to see if the fire burns lower, or the Constitution loss starts to kick in?Sorry - it's late here, and I won't have a chance to post again, so that may be all I can come up with on such short notice.Oooh!  Maybe an undead carries the jar and throws it - they can't suffer any Con loss anyway, so there's no threat to the "delivery system."Going back to the blade barrier:  how 'bout an illusion of a blade barrier (or other nasty thing), and when the party dimension doors to the other side (or whatever), that's where the REAL trap is?What about stuff just to keep them guessing?  A sack of flower coats one of the party entirely in powder?  Is it poison?  Something else?  They don't even necessarily have to figure it out, but maybe they'll waste a few spells, etc., on it.Sorry, gotta sleep, and without further study, that's all I got.  Good luck!Warrior Poet</blockquote>
