Shuffling Scythe Blades
Hazard 8 — magical, mechanical, trap
Pre-Remaster content. May include legacy alignment.
Six long blades, hidden in grooves in the walls and floor, zigzag through different parts of this hallway when any pressure plate in the hallway intersection is depressed; there are so many plates it's impossible to avoid them when moving through the room. The blades retreat into the floor and move through the hidden grooves before swinging out from the wall again in a different location.

Dicing Scythes —
Scythe Shuffle — The blades travel erratically throughout the hallway's branches, out of sight under the floors or behind the walls. For each blade, roll 1d4 to determine the region in which it next makes scythe Strikes. A creature can Seek to learn clues about blades in the region they're currently occupying. On a success, the creature knows how many blades are currently in its region.
