Whether this would be fair or not for me would have a lot to do with verisimilitude, the expectations of the players towards the game, and the previous actions of the DM. If the DM has warned them that the game would include danger, perhaps way beyond their ability if they stumble upon it, the players had encontered such examples of danger, and there is a good reason why such a trap existed, how it worked, and it had been written up as part of the adventure, it would be much more fair than if the DM had told them it was a standard hack and slash campaign where everything had been a milk run and the DM just threw in a random trap on the spur of the moment to kill a character.Editted to add: We don't even know if it was a trap or what the lever did. Could be that the lever did open the secret door and the wizard with a held action on the other side cast a silent quickened spell that did in the monk.</blockquote>
