My players are getting ready to journey to Occipitus and I'm preparing for their travel and trial at the Cathedral of Feathers. One thing I'm worried about is the flying book trap in the cathedral's library.
With multiple books attacking and having a very good chance to hit, it feels like anyone opening the door is doomed!
I've thought about changing it so that only tampering with the books triggers the trap.
I've also heard once, somewhere, that holy damage cannot harm a good aligned creature. But, despite all my searching, I cannot find that anywhere in any rule book. Maybe I'm mis-remembering?
Did anyone else have trouble with this trap?
Thanks!
Since this is based off of Holy Smite, here that is.
The upshot is that good creatures are not affected by holy damage. Also, the books do not pursue anyone out of the library, so as long as they retreat, they should be fine.
Seeing as the Cathedral of Feathers was once part of Celestia, I wouldn't alter the trap. If they're good, they won't take damage and if they're not good and in a literal heavenly library, they should get a good whacking.
