Hey Storytellers,
We have been teasing out how to create a death room for your final confrontation between your players and the Big Bad Guy or Gal (BBG). Of course, you can use this for any minor boss that warrants this type of treatment as well. Think of this as the room where your players go in a video game to confront a minor or major boss fight.

To set this up look at your game mat and figure out where the BBG will be. Then draw in any pillars or things to hold up the ceiling. These can be used to provide cover for the thugs protecting the BBG. Then setup choke points and traps.
Remember about battlefield control spells as they can be useful to move the players into areas they don't want to go through.
Listen to the episode for more ideas on how to setup a death room for the boss fight.
