[QUOTE="Saber, post: 394001, member: 7137"] Hey, I was thinking of throwing my PC's in common flooding room trap, only with a not so common dire shark. Of course the room would have to be VERY large to support the 50ft beast, and I was thinking of having the room not fill to the top (for a while at least). Basically, I thought it would be kinda fun and different to witness an underwater battle of sorts. Yet, I am unsure as to how the rules of the game would allow me to have such a fight. I realize my armored players would sink like rocks, and I am aware of the drowning rule, but I just dont know if actual combat is possible. Could my fighter swing his sword with enough force to damage the beast? And with what minuses. And what spells would fizzle or act crazy underwater? Could my mage even cast them?? So many questions hit me on this one that I just dont know how to do it, but it seems a shame for me to scrap this trap simply due to my lack of knowledge. Therefore, I ask all of you. Any suggestions, homeade rules, or refrences as to how this could work? I'm all ears. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
