Stock Block

Stock Block (noun, verb): the phenomenon where you're stocking a dungeon, and can't think of what should go in a particular keyed area.

"Room 10 is really stock blocking me."

Why yes, I am filling out some sections of my megadungeon. Why do you ask?

  2. Know what really screws with players?

    A room filled with exactly no things.

    1. That's where you are wrong! They love them. They go back to them over and over and over to check for secret doors and gold.

    2. Ah, but we don't think so different - you really are screwing with them if they wont let it go!

      Surely, if the room exists in the dungeon, it *must* have something in it, right?
