[QUOTE="Aholibamah, post: 4242194, member: 53031"] I like the idea of traps. Traps that are unpleasant not merely in the shock factor but that are say designed to drown people, hold them in place for the incoming tides, that use seemingly decrepit parts of a wreck to trap them, that kind of thing. Also I agree with human opponents mostly, but I had one idea: since the tunnel is a place of slime anyway use something like olive slime and have them encounter slime creatures. I would suggest though doing things like that with former comrades from the ship, just to freak them out. Make any human opponents clever and ruthless. If you think about it, human opponents are often the best. Belloq in "Raiders of the Lost Ark", Governor Tarkin in "Star Wars", Miraz more recently in "Prince Caspian", very effective and almost understated. Their motives are easy to understand, their resources are always good, their plans effective. [/QUOTE]
