Vegas, Baby

This is a photo from yesterday's Labyrinth Lord game. I wanted to do something special for the twenty-fifh session, so the final encounter of the dungeon saw the PCs trying to retreive a crystalized drop of a goddess' blood from the center of a constantly rotating labyrinth. As the maze shifted, monstrous guardians appeared to block them. The guardian monsters were all creatures chosen from memorable encounters over the course of the campaign, making the entire encounter something like a high school reunion from Hell (or is that a redundant phrase?).

Looking at the picture, you can see our snack & drink kitty in the upper left of the photo. Between that and the labyrinth wheel, it looks as if we're playing the weirdest form of roulette ever to hit the casinos. So, if you're ever in Vegas and see something to this effect, let me know: I've got some royalties due to me.

  2. That's a really cool idea. It looks like the labyrinth actually spins -- is that from some board game or did you make that?

  3. It's a product called Dungeon Props: Kit One. Its a PDF that you can print out on cardstock and assemble. It's intended for use with 3.5, but I was just using the spinning labyrinth portion (yes, it does spin) and neglected all the extraneous rules stuff included in the PDF.

  4. A perfect finish to the day. That room continued being fun and funny even after I was dead.
