The passages in here have lava running down through them, coming from a central place with several vents. These vents can be easily stopped, as the lava slowly oozes from them. However, if all the lava vents are blocked, the pressure builds up. After 1d6+4 rounds, it explodes, creating a 5 foot tall wave of lava that washes through the complex.

A suspension bridge hangs over the deep chasm. When somebody hits the halfway mark, a large, spiked pendulum, weighing several tons and spanning the width of the bridge, swings down along the length of the bridge, shortening as it travels so it is always 1 inch above the bridge surface.

Something in this area distorts sound, making everything sharp. Bard effects have the negative effect, and if not applicable, are negated. The bard may try again with a +10 to the DC of the perform check to counteract. Spells with a verbal component require a concentration check, and sonic spells deal double damage.

The floor is very springy. Any movement faster than normal speed cause the target to bounce. This can cause the target to lose balance, hit the ceiling, or mis-judge jumps or other Acrobatic feats. For fun, make sure this is at the bottom of a pit, too.

It is very dark in this cave. A narrow bridge crosses a very deep chasm. The chasm is filled with gunpowder. Any fire source dropped into the pit blows off the top of the mountain that it is under.

Every surface in here is covered in a thin layer of very viscous oil. Every action requires an Acrobatics or Dexterity check, or has a penalty. Failing the check causes the target to fall prone. Somatic spellcasting requires a check and a concentration check as well.
