[QUOTE="alienux, post: 7599937, member: 6801841"] My favorite was from a homebrew adventure I created several years ago. The party entered a large cavern and did not notice a plate in the floor that triggered several cages to fall from the ceiling, trapping them (they had to either make a Dex save to avoid being trapped, or make a successful strength check of 20 to bend the bars to get out or take time to burrow underneath). Once they finally got out, they went to another chamber that was filled with skeletons. Instead of fighting, which is what I had expected when I wrote the encounter, they sent someone back to figure out how to reset the cages and pull them back up by the chains connected to gears in the ceiling. The rest of the party lured the skeletons to the first chamber in the spots where the cages fall and used them to trap the skeletons. It wasn't anything I planned for, but I loved the plan they came up with so it worked for them. [/QUOTE]
