What it is about
D100 Dungeon Traps
Never stare at an empty dungeon room wondering what's behind the door again. This fast-reference toolkit turns “what's the trap?” into a ten-second roll.
Combine two 100-entry tables — Trap Trigger and Trap Effect — with a d6 Severity table and an optional d20 Special Twist table for over 60,000 base trap combinations, and well into the millions once you add a twist. Every result is a complete, usable idea: what sets it off, what it does, how dangerous it is, and — if you want it — a complication that makes it memorable.
• 100 Trap Triggers — what activates the trap
• 100 Trap Effects — what happens when it does
• A d6 Severity table, with its own descriptive guidance for each tier
• An optional d20 Special Twist table for extra complications
• A 4-step How to Use guide with a worked example
• Trap design advice for building traps your players remember for the right reasons
System-agnostic and ready to drop into any fantasy tabletop RPG — no stat blocks, no specific ruleset required.
