Door Locks, Bars, Seals, and Traps
DC 10 or lower: a door just about anyone can break open.
DC 11–15: a door that a strong person could break with one try and an average
person might be able to break with one try.
DC 16–20: a door that almost anyone could break, given time.
DC 21–25: a door that only a strong or very strong person has a hope of
breaking, probably not on the first try.
DC 26+: a door that only an exceptionally strong person has a hope of
breaking.
The DC to pick a lock with an Open Lock check often falls into the range of DC
20 to DC 30, although locks with lower or higher DCs can exist. A door can have
more than one lock, each of which must be unlocked separately. Locks often are
trapped, usually with poison needles that extend out to prick a rogue’s finger.

TRAPS
The following are common mechanical traps, found in dungeons the world over.
Provided for each trap is its Challenge Rating (CR), its attack bonus (when
applicable), the amount of damage it inflicts (in parentheses), and the DCs for
saving throws or skill checks to find, avoid, and/or disable the trap.

Magic Traps
A successful Search check (DC 25 + spell level) made by a rogue (and only a
rogue) detects a magic trap before it goes off. Other characters have no
chance to find a magic trap with a Search check.
Magic traps permit a saving throw in order to avoid the effect (DC 10 + spell
level x 1.5).
Magic traps may be disarmed by a rogue (and only a rogue) with a successful
Disable Device check (DC 25 + spell level).
Creating Magic Traps
Creating a magic trap costs experience points and gold, just like creating magic
items. If a trap is a one-use device, the cost for creation is 50 gp and 2 XP,
both multiplied by the caster level. If a trap has multiple uses (or functions
continually), the cost for creation is 500 gp and 20 XP, both multiplied by the
caster level. Devising and placing a magic trap not covered by existing spell
effects is just like creating a magic item. Building a trap-filled dungeon
filled with magical dangers is thus a costly process.

Sample Magic Traps
Provided for each trap is its Challenge Rating (CR), the area the trap affects
or its attack bonus (whichever applies), the amount of damage it inflicts (in
parentheses), and the DCs for saving throws or skill checks to find, avoid,
and/or disable the trap.

avoids; Search (DC 26); Disable Device (DC 25).

Globe of Cold: CR 4; 20-ft.-radius sphere or hemisphere (5d6); Reflex save (DC
15) avoids; Search (DC 27); Disable Device (DC 25).

Electrified Floor: CR 4; section of floor (3d10); Reflex save (DC 14) for half
damage; Search (DC 25); Disable Device (DC 25).

Floor Transforms into Acid: CR 6; section of floor (10d6); Reflex save (DC 16)
negates; Search (DC 28); Disable Device (DC 30). Note: Successful save means
character dives to safety in time.

Illusion over Spiked Pit (20 Ft. deep): CR 3; no attack roll required (2d6), +10
melee (1d4 spike attacks for 1d4+2 points of damage per successful hit); Reflex

Air Sucked out of Room: CR 5; one room (see note below); Search (DC 28); Disable
Device (DC 30). Note: Deals suffocation damage.

ORGANIC HAZARDS
Green Slime (CR4)
A single patch of green slime deals 1d6 points of temporary Constitution damage
per round while it devours flesh. On the first round of contact, the slime can
be scraped off a creature (most likely destroying the scraping device), but
after that it must be frozen, burned, or cut away (applying damage to the victim
as well). Extreme cold or heat, sunlight, or a remove disease spell destroys a
patch of green slime. Against wood or metal, green slime deals 2d6 points of
damage per round, ignoring metal’s hardness but not that of wood. It does not
harm stone.

Mold and Fungus
Yellow Mold (CR 6): If disturbed, a patch of this mold bursts forth with a cloud
of poisonous spores. All within 10 feet of the mold must make a Fortitude save
(DC 15) or take 1d6 points of temporary Constitution damage. Another Fortitude
save (DC 15) is required 1 minute later—even by those who succeeded at the first
save—to avoid taking 2d6 points of temporary Constitution damage. Fire destroys
yellow mold, and sunlight renders it dormant.

Brown Mold (CR 2): Brown mold feeds on warmth, drawing heat from anything around
it. It normally comes in patches 2 to 3 feet in diameter, and the temperature is
always cold in the area surrounding it. Living creatures within 5 feet of it
take 3d6 points of cold subdual damage. Fire brought within 5 feet of the mold
causes it to instantly double in size. Cold damage, such as from a cone of cold,
instantly destroys it.

Phosphorescent Fungus (No CR): This strange underground fungus grows in patches
that look almost like stunted shrubbery. It gives off a soft violet glow that
illuminates underground caverns and passages.
