Dungeon Sounds for Redbrick




































Your party bickering about rules or a mapping detail or telling some crap story about their lives? Just throw in a few of these and watch paranoia set in. In a self aware magic dungeon, the dungeon spirit might make these just to spook travellers who don't respect the peril they are in. You don't need to resolve these sounds. But possibly you might. Or just blame on ghosts. Some noise travels through drain and air pipes or echo from some distance. Dungeon acoustics might be magical.

  1. Most excellent indeed! I've often used a actual sound at the table (which is WAAAAY easier to do in the cell phone/tablet era we are living in now)to get the group to pay attention and re-focus. Nothing like a little creepy audio to get the Player's attention. I might go thru this list and create some audio samples based on these; thanks so very much for another awesome DM tool.
