Idol of Chaos
This trap is activated when a creature touches its surface, which causes a shrine to glow. There's a shoddy shrine in the middle of the area.
Effect: Targets all lawful creatures that touch it, DC 13 WIS save or take 16 (2d10) damage and become confused stunned for 3 (1d4) rounds
Trigger: touch trigger, activates when surface is touched by a creature.
Countermeasures: A spell or other effect that can sense the presence of magic, such as detect magic, reveals an aura of divination magic around the surface. A successful dispel magic (DC 13) cast on the surface destroys the trap.
Sleep Trap
A passage is trapped with glowing runes which must be covered or toggled to display a specific password. If the wrong runes are showing then the trap is triggered, which releases the spell stored within the trapped object. The object is covered in arcane symbols and writing.
Effect: +7 to hit (or DC 13) against one target, Casts Sleep centered on the triggerer
Trigger: runes, a surface is covered in glowing runes that can be touched or covered to form specific words, the correct word must be found to stop the trap.
Countermeasures: A successful DC 15 Intelligence (Arcana) check allows a character to figure out that the runes can be toggled or covered to make out different words. A successful dispel magic (DC 13) cast on the eye disables the trap. An unsuccessful check triggers the trap. Casting dispel magic (DC 13) on the trap will cancel the stored spell.
Destroying Traps
Traps can be damaged and destroyed, sometimes to good or bad effect. Pipes containing fire or poison will rupture and spray over the area, while mechanisms can be rendered inoperable with enough force. Determine the HP and AC of your traps based on the tables below. Sometimes a fragile trap is more dangerous than a resilient one if destroying it will fill the corridor with acid.

| Crystal, glass, ice | 13 |
| Wood, bone | 15 |
| Stone | 17 |
