My attempt at cleaning up box traps, thoughts?

Bug (Reaper) Trap A crust-covered black scarab of some unidentifiable substance clings to the <material> <box> by six tiny legs, all of which are firmly imbedded into the <wood/metal> and look like it may be tough to dig them out. Summons about 3 vykathi reapers, who appear at melee range with the locksmith. They do not share the locksmith's roundtime for the disarm attempt. a tiny chitinous leg Deadly, summons creatures
Crossbolt Trap You find a series of openings on the front of the <box> concealing the points of several wickedly barbed crossbow bolts.

Fire Ant Trap 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. Upon failure, the blade slices open a bag of Fire Ants, which crawl up your hands and over your entire body. 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. a sharp blade Deadly, pulsing vitality
Flea Trap Imbedded in the front of the iron <box> is a small glass tube of milky-white opacity. Small black dots bounce inside, though the lack of transparency makes it impossible to be certain what they are. Causes to Disarmer to be covered in fleas that inflict vitality damage and random Roundtimes. You will need to find a body of water at least ankle deep (or a Warrior Mage with Water Globe) to wash away the fleas. a tiny hammer Deadly, pulsing vitality
Gas Trap (Poison) You notice a vial of lime green liquid just under the <box>'s lid. The stopper is attached so that the vial will open when the top is lifted.

There is a chance that the locksmith will inhale all the gas upon its release, preventing the gas cloud in the room. a sealed vial,

Lightning Trap Looking closely into the keyhole, you spy what appears to be a pulsating ball with some sort of metal lacing around it. The lacing runs to meet a coin sized piece of metal near the keyhole itself. Shoots a lightning bolt at the locksmith. Can be amplified if set off in water. an iron disc Deadly, Lightning Bolt
Naphtha Soaker Searching the <box> carefully, you notice a small notch beside a tiny metal lever on the front. Though it's hard to see, there also appears to be a liquid-filled bladder inside the notch. A two stage trap. First Failure soaks the Disarmer in naptha. Second failure will ignite the naptha causing damage to various parts of the body and inflicting a hefty damage to vitality. The naptha will eventually evaporate if it's not ignited. a metal spring,a tiny metal lever Deadly, Naptha buring

Casts the Teleport spell on the locksmith. If the associated moon (see the color of the disc) is down, the locksmith is disintegrated. If the moon is up, they are teleported to a random one of several predetermined locations within nearby hunting grounds. The harder the box, the longer the potential range of the teleport. a thin metal circle Deadly, possible disentigration
Bouncing Box Looking into the keyhole you see what seems to be a pin lodged against the tumblers of the lock. Connected to the pin is a small shaft that runs downward into a shadow. The box will bounce from room to room and eventually destroys the box. Will toss out the contents of the box as it's bouncing, one per room (may take several bounces to start), until it runs out, upon which it is destroyed. (At the moment the box doesn't actually spit out any treasure. This is due to the box changes that made treasure spawn within the box at the moment it is lockpicked.) a steel pin None
Curse Trap While checking the caddy with an careful eye, you notice a small glowing rune hidden inside the box near the lock. Curses the box and contents so that it can not be dropped/stowed/dismantled. You will need a Cleric with Uncurse to break the curse or a Warrior Mage with Flashpoint. Eventually the curse on the box itself will fade, but the items inside will remain cursed. a broken rune Cursed, box won't leave hand

Mime Trap A tiny bronze face, Fae in appearance, grins ridiculously from its place on the <material> <box>. Some sort of fatty bladder sticks out from the edges of this miniature metallic visage. Turns the locksmith into a mime. Many actions will result in the mime acting as if stuck in an invisible box, with a 10-second roundtime. Some actions have specific mime interpretations. It will wear off after a time, or can be canceled by a Cleric with Uncurse. a tiny bronze face Cursed as a mime
Shadowling Trap While scanning the <box> with a careful eye, you notice a small black crystal deep in the shadows of the <material> <box>. Causes the locksmith to speak in gibberish. Does not affect gwethdesuan thoughts. cracked black crystal Can't speak temporarily
