This is a list of the various box traps that can be found.
==Deadly (Damaging)==
===Acid Trap===

=== Fire Ant Trap ===
'''Trap Appearance:''' Within the casing of the wooden strongbox is a mesh bag, a very sharp blade poised to the side just within the structure of the strongbox. The bag twitches on occasion, leading you to believe the blade's presence likely to be a very bad thing.<br />
'''Area Affect:''' None.<br />

'''Success result:''' After carefully pushing at the sharp blade for a while, you manage to bend it well away from the mesh bag.<br />

'''Failure Messaging (Blown Trap):''' You push against the sharp blade carefully for a few moments in an attempt to bend it away from the mesh bag, but a sudden *RIP* indicates your sudden failure. To your horror, oversized, red, ant-like insects emerge and begin to race across your hands, quickly crawling all over your body!<br />

'''Failure Messaging (Damage Pulse):''' An incredibly strong sensation of heat and pain pulsates within you, giving you an almost psychotic want for something - anything - cold.<br />

Every few seconds, there is a damage pulse and you receive the above messaging while taking a large hit to vitality (15-30% or more per pulse). Victim can die within a few moments of the trap activating if the burning sensation isn't resolved immediately. <br />

'''How to Neutralize the Burning Sensation:''' Unknown. Splashing the body with water globe was completely ineffective and the victim still died within about 10-20 seconds.<br />
