Open the door labeled OBSCURA, and players are met with a bright flash of lights. Players with 15 ft of the door (or 1d4 players, if you&#39;re not tracking player position on a grid) are blinded for 1d20 minutes.

Furthermore, the room is a <em>camera obscura</em> and creates a magical duplicate of the players. These duplicates attack the players immediately. The duplicates are actually doppelgangers &#40;refer to your favourite bestiary or monster manual for stats&#41;. Alternately, there are no doppelgangers, but some generic, low-level otyugh, derro, or your favourite dungeon critter.
