I always enjoy a monkey’s paw type deal. I hope your players enjoy discovering how it all goes wrong.

Don’t leave us in suspense like that, what’s going to happen with the wonder?

I work in healthcare and it’s an append-i-cectomy not an appen-dectomy. It should have the i pronounced. The Americanised version is just lazy.

Yeah it’s animal abuse. In the wild the snake hunts and the prey has a chance to escape. The prey animal has 0 (or very close to 0) chance of escape in a tank with a reptile. It’s just cruel and unnecessary.

I’d draw the line for anything not an insect personally. Insects I’m pretty sure don’t have enough brain to be terrorised.

Taking your idea a bit further you could Schrödingers cat yourself, buy a bunch of lottery tickets and set up a radioisotope decay triggered death machine with the escape being you select a winning lottery ticket. In theory this means you’re getting out of the box with a winning ticket.

You could also do the same with basically anything you want to happen, go into the box with the escape condition of “the world becomes a better place” probably need some more defined variables but maybe not.
