Exsplosive Chest (Trap Idea)
Here's one for you DM's that want to punish your non-trap checking players.
The players are in a dungeon when they spot a duded out chest. The chest itself is painted with gold & has gems on the outline of it. However, if the players go to move the chest, they will find that it's firmly attached to the ground.
If the players got to unattached any of them gems or open the chest, without trap checking, the chest will start beeping & then explode (Deal great damage). If the players check the chest for traps before hand, they will find little wires attached to nearly every important part of the chest. To disarm the chest, the players must cut all the wires, open the chest & then disarm the bomb inside. If the players do this successfully, they will gain the entire chest & everything inside, as loot.
