About this model
A classic domed treasure chest with dark wooden planks bound by rusted iron straps and a heavy lock plate at the front. It is about 3 ft long, 1.5 ft deep and 2 ft high, a box that sits comfortably inside one square.
Put it at the end of a dungeon crawl, in a pirate's cabin, in a dragon's hoard or in a noble's vault. Players notice a chest at once, which makes it a good focal point or a good bait. It can hold loot, a trap, a mimic, or something that wants to stay locked, and it gives half cover to a crouching kobold.
Ideas for the table
- The chest at the end of the corridor is a mimic, and the real treasure is hidden beneath the floor stones it sits on.
- Pirates are hauling a heavy chest to their boat across the beach, and the party has one round to intervene.
- An unlocked chest holds only a letter apologising for the theft and naming the thief who got there first.
