Each entry contains a mix of inspirational text and one or more random tables. Looking to make your next monster encounter more interesting? Creating a mythos-styled location for your next scenario? Figuring out the antediluvian horror central to your next plot?
Building out the dark history of a lost book, mysterious grandfather, or odd old house? Every mechanical horror, every thief's demise, Every fell contraption Lies here, deep in this book of secrets. Would you like to fill your dungeons with traps, but you can never find coherent rules or guidelines to show the way?
Are your players weary of arbitrary deathtraps? Have you ever searched in vain for a system which codifies spells into magical traps? Are you bored with the "famous four" - pits, gas, arrows and poisoned needles - but never know what to replace them with? Herein you will find rules for boiling mud, Illusionary bridges, amnesia vapor, polymorph traps, unseen servant-triggered machinations, collapsing columns, and much more.
Best of all, all traps are collated into hierarchies of Lethality Levels, so that you can always challenge your players without killing their heroes outright.
This elaborate tome also includes rules for trap placement in dungeon designs, advice on trap locations, trap triggers, trap detection, trap removal, 10' poles as trap detection devices, and even a complete set of random monster tables to aid you in populating monster pits, cages, summoning traps, alarm-trapped dungeon chambers, and much more.
Every trap type features detailed rules which have been culled from dozens of books and dungeon modules, turning hidden and obscure rulings into a methodical and internally consistent system for trap design.
Everything you will ever need to fill every dungeon you create with any trap you can dream of, it's all here in a single source. You do not need both books to make use of them; they simply amplify one another. A brave mouse, a covetous rat, a wishful serving girl, and a princess named Pea come together in Kate DiCamillo's Newbery Medal—winning tale.
Welcome to the story of Despereaux Tilling, a mouse who is in love with music, stories, and a princess named Pea. It is also the story of a rat called Roscuro, who lives in the darkness and covets a world filled with light. And it is the story of Miggery Sow, a slow-witted serving girl who harbors a simple, impossible wish. These three characters are about to embark on a journey that will lead them down into a horrible dungeon, up into a glittering castle, and, ultimately, into each other's lives.
What happens then? As Kate DiCamillo would say: Reader, it is your destiny to find out. With black-and-white illustrations and a refreshed cover by Timothy Basil Ering. But the detailed, evocative etchings by Erik Desmazieres provide a perfect counterpoint to the visionary prose.
Like Borges, Desmazieres has created his own universe, his own definition of the meaning, topography and geography of the Library of Babel. Printed together, with the etchings reproduced in fine-line duotone, text and art unite to present an artist's book that belongs in the circle of Borges's sacrosanct Crimson Hexagon - "books smaller than natural books, books omnipotent, illustrated, and magical.

Original electronic Scanned image These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching.
However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable.
Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background. For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.
Original electronic format These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
