Tar Pit

A barricade is holding back the trap and breaking it open causes the trap to trigger, which opens the floor into a shallow pool of tar, sticking and slowing anyone caught in it. Some sort of dried substance is smeared on the walls and floors.

Effect: Targets all creatures within 20 ft., The floor opens into a shallow pool of tar, halving the speed of anyone in the area. The tar sticks to them, continuing to slow their movements until the tar is scraped off.

Trigger: barricade, a barricade is holding back the trap.

Countermeasures: Leaving the barricade alone avoids the trap.

Freezing the tar will cause anyone currently submerged to become restrained, but otherwise make it possible to walk full speed on top of a slippery surface.

Net Trap

A door or chest is rigged to activate when opened, which causes a camouflaged net to fall on any creature caught below. The ceiling is covered in stalactites or vines to conceal it.

Effect: Targets all creatures within a 10 ft. square area, DC 11 STR save or become restrained

Trigger: door, activates when a door or chest is opened.

Countermeasures: Spotting the attached wire is a DC 10 Wisdom (Perception) check. A successful DC 10 Dexterity check using thieves' tools breaks the wire attached to the door harmlessly. A character without thieves' tools can attempt this check with disadvantage using any edged weapon or edged tool. On a failed check, the trap triggers.

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.
