You and your party get into the bath. The water is clear and relaxing. Suddenly, bath piranhas appear. What do?

Eels

1) The water is actually acid
2) The water is actually a slime goddess
3) ???

Can't go wrong with some sort of mirage babes that try to convince you to stay forever and then suck out your souls

The bath is enchanting and relaxing. If a PC relaxes into the bath, a wailing and singing only they can hear comes up from the water. If they look down they will see beautiful women (or men) grasping for them, begging to come under the water with them. Any PCs that have not entered the bath or have otherwise entered the bath but not settled into it will not see or hear these beings. The beings will grasp on to those PCs that can see them and try to drag them under the water.

it's a magical bath that has just the right temperature.

And no downsides, the only downside is that nobody trusts baths in a dungeon so noone ever bathed in it.

Alternatively, instead of a spooky encounter, you could do a humorous one. The party comes across a group of adventurers already in the bath, stripped naked and sipping on goblets of wine. They are harmless and silly-drunk, and try to tease the PCs into getting in with them and having some wine.

Before entering the water, you decide to probe the pool with your spear... you find nothing.

Then you toss a rock into the pool. It sinks into the liquid, almost as if it was water. The ripples look normal...

You take a small metal ball, and throw it into the pool at speed. It makes a satisfying "thunk" as it hits the bottom. But... it could still be trapped.

You probe again with your spear, feeling along the sides. You find no strange objects, creatures, anything.

Finally, you dip a toe into the water, immediately taking it out and backpedalling 5 feet in your paranoia. Nothing happens.

...Sometimes, a bath is just a bath.

The water is actually jelly. Tastes delicious.

The bath water is a gelatinous cube that slowly becomes more acidic and viscous the more time you spend in it.

The bath ladder is a mimic, it only becomes aggressive when someone tries to climb it, not descend with it.

The load-bearing statues which support the roof of Atlas are actually golems.

Are you me?

Cause one of my dungeons has a waist deep section they have to wade through and to open a door they have to pull a lever which also unleashes a swarm of piranha on the party.

>after all this double-checking, you realize you can just enjoy a nice hot bath
>you open the hot water tap
>cold water comes out

Tis actually a green ooze

a jelly goddess?

I'd pay to watch a movie (or even a short film) about a fantasy story told as if it was being played by a D&D group. The level of non-sense could harm your brain though

Hi Mr. Peanutbutter

>The bath has an [intelligent monster] as an attendant. He went away to take a leak and only returns when the PCs are already relaxing in the water
>He indignantly demands they pay for the service. And should the PCs decide to fight he won't wait until they put their gear on.

Today, you embark upon an adventure. Last time, we saw the dethroning of a mad king. However, it turns out that the mad king was merely a pawn of a much greater threat, something that plans to destroy the entire continent.

Our adventurers are Bubkis the Besmirched, a noble who once was in line to be the king of a small country, but had his birthright stolen from him.

Lena D'mor'mi'sen, once a noble, was in line to become the queen of a small country, before she embarked upon a life of adventure.

Robert Shoemaker, once a noble, once in line to be... king of a... small...

...Gore Kill Maim, Ah, there's one interesting one. An orc barbarian who... was also... going to be...

...

You meet in a tavern.

The bath feels just right, but is actually a super cool liquid that will cause hypothermia and death within minutes.

There's Record of Lodoss War.

There's Gamers, Dorkness Rising

not a big fan of anime, is it about overdramatic special-snowflake teenagers?

No more overdramatic and special snowflake than an average D&D party.

thank you, gonna check it

The master of the dungeon comes to take a bath, only to find adventurers in his bath, roll initiative.

>the cold water from the tap marked "hot" instantly renders the entire bath freezing cold
>you open the tap marked "cold"
>boiling hot water comes out and instantly renders the bath too hot to bath in

Wat do Veeky Forums? Dare you brave the inscrutable puzzle of the bath taps?!

Open both of them at the same time.

Open "hot" tap, close, go explore a bit, come back when it's cooled down.

This one time we had to pass the bathhouse in a dungeon and a squid monster who lived in it wouldn't let us pass unless we gave it the Paladins underwear, very uncomfortable experience for all.

Needless to say I shot it in the face with a lightning bolt.

Isn't there a phobia that talks about fears of things eating you when you're in water¿

> ixitxachitl
> knew she wanted me
> imagine a smirking face over there, i can't be bothered to find a pic for such a shit thread

...

No, it's played surprisingly straight. Deedlit (the elf) can be a little annoying at times, but far more so in the English dub than the original Japanese.

Also, Ghim (the dwarf) is the best character, hands down.

The water tries to rape them. No, it doesn't take humanoid shape, and it doesn't form a phallus or anything. It just tries to rape them, while staying in water-shape.

OP is that bath in ...Bath?

soooo? dont look down?

We told you not to use a slime as a bath sponge.

sauce?

>No, like, for instance, if you-- if I say peanut butter and...
...Goddess.
>>Yup.
Right?
>No, jelly.
Am I right?
>>Jelly? I was gonna say...
You like to make a Goddess out of jelly?

The water, unbeknownest to us, has magical abilities. The site of the bath seduces our weary party as we begin to eagerly undress for a much needed and wanted moment of relaxation. The bath itself is pleasant, ornate and the water feels warm and sensual to the touch. The magic begins to work it's way through our sense as we begin to feel revitalized and tantalized by eqch fluid moment. Our party has become close we all begin to think, very close and our minds wander on how much we appreciate one another. Thoughts become actions as we assist in cleansing one each other and hands begin to wander. From one moment to another things become rather sexual as we are stroking each other under the water. First on our arms and thighs but then in our most private parts. It feels good we all think. The light in the bath grows dimmer but still visible as we all begin to lose ourselves to one another in this magical bath.

It's a pool of water. Three feet under the water are 10 gelatinous cubes. Their refraction index is the exact same as water rendering then virtually invisible. They move smoothly and barely make a ripple

Do Goblins bathe?

So it's freezing cold, you used the wrong tap dingus

Yes, but I'm not gonna say what exactly they bathe in.

let's just say it's a white liquid that's really good for the skin yes, that's right, it's ass' milk

non-noble goblins that can't afford this often end up with nasty dermatological conditions that make them seem uglier than they naturally are

>Can't go wrong

Do this and watch the PCs murder the harmless adventurerers

The water, unbeknownest to us, has magical abilities. The site of the bath seduces our weary party as we begin to eagerly undress for a much needed and wanted moment of relaxation. The bath itself is pleasant, ornate and the water feels warm and sensual to the touch. The magic begins to work its way through our senses as we begin to feel revitalized and tantalized by each fluid moment.

Our party has become close we all begin to think, very close and our minds wander on how much we appreciate one another.

The light in the bath grows dimmer but still visible as we all begin to lose ourselves to one another in this magical bath.

The party members all climax, and the magic wears off. Ashamed, we all put back on our clothes and return to our journey through the dungeon trying to forget what just happened. We all try to simply put the past behind us...

However...

The bath has an altar with a statue of a woman draped in white cloth. Using the bath removes poison, disease, and other impurities. Supplies for cleaning the bath are located nearby in a cabinet.

Making a mess of the bath or defiling it earns the wrath of the goddess, who curses the offender with foul body odor, parasites, and itchiness until he or she returns to tidy up the mess they have made.

Peeping on others in the bath against their will earns you permanent blindness.

End your life post-haste.

>Electricity trap

How would you do it?

That does look like Aquae Sulis
Fun fact the water is only green because its in the sunlight and the bath hasn't been cleaned for centuries

Yes, it is.
t: Not OP

Wait, Somerset city or Roman social meeting place?
It's pretty neat how the georgian architecture mixes with the roman

Someone has to tell me were this is from

>the dungeon has a bath
>in fact, it's THE bath for the dungeon
>everyone gathers there like a watering hole, treating it as neutral ground
>PCs can meet with and taunt the dungeon BBEG right there in the bath
>but god save them if they try to get into a measuring contest, as they will not survive the permanent -5 morale penalty

>Georgian architecture mixes well with the architecture it was based on
weww lad
also there's nothing genuinely Roman left in Bath

this was a good one

Why the fuck would you do anything with it?
You are breaking in to the home of dangerous monsters. This is like doing a home invasion in fucking rural Texas and stopping to use the hot-tub or some shit.

Act like a fucking professional.

As a meme my players sometimes roll 1d10+TB to determine cock size, and I'm adding morale to our next campaign--will definitely have to consider adding comparatives to damage\bolster morale.

Wat is it

An h-manga wherein an elf bathes in a slime

The bath water recovers your HP and is completely benign in every way.

Goofball NPC who occasionally talks to a voice in his head optional

>take a bath since no one's around
>suddenly door opens
>guards come in, chatting
>tell us to GTFO immediately
As it turns out, we'd found a roundabout way into the local guard HQ while exploring the city's tunnels.

Yeah.

Doraleous and Co.?

Pickled Herring?

Isn't the Kings Bath too hot for humans as it's the bath built above the natural spring itself?

Bath caretaker is actually just a bath caretaker. Just struggling to make ends meet, offers very low prices for his amities and services, given nobody come to his bath and those that do assume some a trick and run or try to kill him. This has given him insane combat abilities as he has to fight monsters off and mistrusting adventurers. As he continues tirelessly to make his bath house famous and revitalize the area as the areas economic has tanked since some evil warlord built a dungeon here centuries ago, before that it was a empty field with some poor ranchers. But he got the land free and it is in a tax exempt zone, so once things pick up he will be doing great, long term planning type of guy.

Built it and they will come.

Who wears that kind of armor on a bath?

They need to wade through it to open a lever, not to have a bath.

>Peeping on others in the bath against their will earns you permanent blindness.
How can you avoid "peeping on others"? It's a bath. Everyone is naked by definition. If people are unwilling to be seen naked, they shouldn't be there. Unless you mean people looking in on the bath from outside at a distance.

>the bath hasn't been cleaned for centuries
Why the fuck not? Isn't that a public health hazard, to just leave centuries-old stagnant water sitting around?

Actually if there is no energy input then things can't grow. Lack of sunlight stops plant microbes and thus no animal micros can eat, over time they all starve or reach a near harmless dormant state any reasonable immune system can handle.

There are rare exceptions like viral agents and those extreme microbes. Chemical toxins are another matter entirely, those never seem to go away and just about always dangerous.

Basically if the water is clean to start with and nothing gets to it given how remote it is, then nothing can make it dirty.

So under the right conditions leaving century old bath water is actually surprisingly safe.

Well, even if it's safe, you'd think they might want to clean it up to make it into some kind of tourist attraction. "Experience an authentic Roman bath!"

Don't have anything for in-dungeon baths, but I did have an instance of the party base having a spacious bath
>playing online in discord chat
>myself and another character accidentally put our opposite-gendered and one-sided hatred characters into the bath because we posted within five seconds
>decide to roll with it
>other guy tries to have his character react in typical tsun "don't look at me perv" style
>my character points out he really doesn't care either way since he's already got a gf, but nonchalantly covers his eyes anyway because no one wants a fight in the bathroom
>situation diffuses itself, she gets in the opposite end of the bath
>actually friendly conversation occurs between the two
>The water is actually a slime goddess
How did you know my secret fetish user?
How did you know my personal hell user?

AD&D had an adventure that involved going to meet dwarves who lived in an ogre infested mountain. The first ogre the PCs were likely to meet would be caught off guard and easy to ambush, but doing so would likely involve killing him just as his mates get near enough to notice and raise the alarm, making the mountain stupidly hazardous to go through and full of all sorts of dangerous intelligent creatures.
The reason for the loads of different intelligent creatures? The mountain is host to amazing hot springs and the ogres just turned it into a private bathing club for man and monster alike, but since humans tend to freak out about monsters none have ever learned of this not-so-secret secret.

So I would make the trap not a trap at all, just a situation where the PCs can be assholes who ruin everyone else's fun.

It is built above a natural spring, no idea what's the temperature

Yeah, suck out the souls. Suck them out hard.

"Against their will" is the key phrase.

A mixed group of men and women getting into the bath are fine. They agreed to bathe and been seen together. If the women go in the bath and tell the men to wait their turn, then one of the men peeps, he is blinded.

The bath is actually filled with milk, and moving around too much turns it into butter.

> How did you know my personal hell user?
I live in a post-Soviet country
Shit like cold water going out of hot water taps, sudden heating shutdowns and other assorted "fun" stuff is part of the norm here.

Electric eels.

>The adventurers are crawling through a dungeon, trying to find the BBEG and stop his ritual to summon a long dead evil god
>The PC enters through a dark, damp room
>Suddenly the BBEG appears before them, in full regalia
>"Are you here to stall? It won't help you!" taunts the noble paladin(female) of the group
>The BBEG laughs loudly, his voice booming through his helmet
>He throws off his armor, revealing a swimsuit underneath, as torches around the room magically light themselves and reveal a large bathing complex
>"Foolish mortals, can you not see that this is the ONSEN EPISODE?"
>Fanservice shenanigans begin
>The BBEG washes the female paladin's back in a vaguely erotic manner
>The female barbarian doesn't believe in swimsuits, much to the embarassment of the healslut she loves to bully
>The bard succesfully woos henchwoman #37
>After the PCs have been bathing for the runtime of an average anime episode, the Dark God is brought back to life and commences an age of darkness

Nice shitty copypasta.

This is the original you shamelessly have ripped off but told worse.

Do not trust this traitor. Shun him. Mock him.

Bathing nymphs, of course.

Save vs. death or keel over on the spot.

Oh, wow thanks. I was actually looking for this.

Looks like it's my time to shine!

>a minor god of cleanliness takes issue with your summoner's pet Otyugh and the generally unhygenic state you exist in due to adventuring constantly, and decides to "cleanse" and "purify" you all, body and mind
>you should probably kill it before it can do that
