[QUOTE="TheAuldGrump, post: 1896596, member: 6957"] The ever popular Masterwork suit of full plate - made out of magnesium. One fireball, a bright flash and Johansen is GONE! A tripwire and pit - with the pit opening about 15 or 20 feet behind the tripwire. The intent is for the tripwire to be diliberately triggered by the baddie as he flees down the corridor. A fireman's pole - but unless the lever has been pulled the covered pit trap beneath it opens above the sharpened stakes as soon as any weight hits it. (Again an 'I want to get away!' trap.) A slide down, if the lever is pulled it leads to another slide leading to the exit. if it hasn't it leads to something remarkably like a cheese grater. (What's the good of having a secret hideout if you don't live to escape from it?) A false door with a very big strap spring behind it. False hinges on the side, real hinge on the bottom - the only thing holding it in place is the lock... False door with explosive runes behind it. A vault style door with a [i]river[/i] behind it, only the very sturdy door and lock keeping it from flooding the tunnels very quickly indeed. A fairly easy to spot floor trigger. Unless the floor trigger is stepped on the trap ahead will activate. The Auld Grump [/QUOTE]
