A mace of disruption doesn't detect undead, it just does extra damage to them.So for instance, a creature couldn't use Nystul's to get past a magic circle.If a trap was designed to trigger when a dwarf stepped on it, I would say Nystul's would work. If it was designed to go off when anyone stepped on it, but only damage dwarves, then I think Nystul's wouldn't protect you.The dwarven thrower etc seem the most ambiguous to me. Does it detect that you're a dwarf and that triggers the extra benefits, or does it work the same every time and a dwarf's nature just lets her benefit more from it? Seems to me a DM could reasonably rule differently on that for different items of that nature.</blockquote>
