Which door do you choose?
Pride seems obvious.
Staring at the doors you tap your foot and try to work out what the right answer is, guessing that all but one door is actually a trap as the logistics of keeping 6 monsters alive down here is to complicated. “So wrath is all about anger and fighting, that seems obviously wrong. Greed would be easy to just have a big pile of poisoned fake treasure. Lust is one that could be a monster like a sexy vampire or something that isn’t really alive I suppose. Gluttony just sounds gross so I can’t think of a clue that would make it correct. Huh, pride, I suppose that could be it, some kind of test to see if you are confident enough to choose. Last is envy which is all about wanting what another has. Hmm, if it is a trap which one is the right answer.” After saying it all out loud it seems obvious.
You quickly settle on pride and pull open the door, revealing a shimmering field blocking your view of the room. “Oh, a teleport field, so it is a trick, every door opens to the same room with the creature inside altered to fit the choice. Okay, let’s do this.” You push on into the room beyond.
You are now standing in a similar six sided room, possibly the same one, but now only one door leads out at the far side of the room. In the center stand a pair of just over 6’ tall statues that look remarkably similar to the strong body you were given when you first arrived. Both are chiseled, deeply tanned, wearing an old Egyptian style kilt, heavy leather sandals, and thick bracers on their wrists. Each holds a 8’ long leaf headed spear in opposite hands so both are next to each other, and a large inverted teardrop shaped shield. Their bodies are basically hairless, with a sheen that suggests oiling, with a neat short hairstyle. They don’t say a word as you enter, and for a moment you are sure they are actually statues. Taking a step closer you notice their chests are slowly rising and falling.
Step into the room?
