Labyrinth - Place your bets before it's set up!
« on: June 12, 2011, 03:58:21 pm »

Hello, recently I've read up on minotaurs on the wiki. One entry it mention putting it in your own labyrinth, this gave me an idea.
One a z-level in which I use nothing for I am currently digging out a large, confusing maze. Of course, it won't be confusing for the enemy. But if I were to find this as an adventurer it would be awesome, but back on topic:
I have recently caught a demon, on the genesis mod, and I am planning on putting him inside this labyrinth. In the middle he will have to survive various stonetraps, weapon traps and what happens when he finally gets to the end? He's captured again.
If the enemies survive three rounds of this death game they are set free into the wild.
Not only am I putting out traps I am currently training giant ants and badgers for use in this thing.
How long do you think the lizardman will survive against various traps and animals?
I will post a screenshot of the finished labyrinth when I get it ready.

And then there were ghouls. As ghouls spawned and walked into my cage traps they will now be added into my diabolical FUN maze.
As they cannot be tamed they are now contestants in the labyrinth at the same time as the demon. I have added more points in which they will be released, along with more traps.
When the games begin I shall have the levers pulled and show you the results.
If a lizardman and a demon survive I have decided that one more round will take place on a z-level with only one weapon traps for each. The first one to get captured lives, the one following it is executed at the hands of my military.

I now have about ten ghouls in cages scattered around the damned caverns.

The labyrinth if almost completely dug out, since it's too big to show you in one picture I will only post the section of where the demon will be released, followed by the ghouls. This will be after I set traps and everything.

I vote 25 seconds from once they're released until they die.

If you had necromancy powers, this would be a pretty solid way to prank people.
A creepy old man runs up to you and suddenly the skin in your backpack tries to kill you? High Octane Nightmare Fuel much.

I've actually let the lizardman keep his weapons and armor, so he'll probably survive at least one round.

Haven't seen lizardmen and how well they die fight, so I'll place my bet on 1 1/2 round, depending on how the lab looks like.

The first layout looked like this:

I'm currently working on more exits, entrances, etc.

It's getting set up, I just need a few more mechanisms and everything. The bridges are almost set, I have some weapon traps and all I need is to place the animals and pressure plates.
