Mysterious Dread in the World of Dungeons & Dragons.

Rugs of Smothering appear to be ordinary, aesthetic rugs, often adorned with intricate patterns and colorful threads. However, when someone unknowingly steps on them or approaches too closely, the magic within them awakens, transforming them into a plush, billowing trap.

The method of attack by Rugs of Smothering is simple yet effective. When a victim is on their surface, the rugs begin to move, wrapping their thread-like fringes around the victim’s legs and body. The force with which they do this can surprise even the most experienced warriors. Some may also attempt to suffocate the victim by wrapping around their face and throat, thereby threatening their life.

Ways to Survive

Fighting a Rug of Smothering can be dangerous but not impossible. Heroes who find themselves facing this magical trap must act quickly and cleverly.

One of the most common ways to defeat a Rug of Smothering is to use fire or acids. The magical fabric comprising them is susceptible to fire, so attacking with flames or corrosive substances can destroy the rug. Other heroes may try to cut off the thread-like fringes that hold their victim using blades or other sharp-ended tools.

Of course, the best defense against Rugs of Smothering is caution. Being aware that even the most innocent-looking rug can be a trap, travelers can avoid standing on them or check them before approaching.
