I usually have dinosaurs, dragons, and fluffies (dogs, cats any furry creature) in my stories (actually there werent fluffies until my newest story The Secret Of Shadow-Forest).
a giant rabbit, a brussel sprout with wings?! Good bye sanity....

Just come accros this thread again and I happen to have my copy of 'The Labyrinths of Fear' to hand - and the paragraph I was referring to was section 28. Could somebody give me an idea of what might have actually happened there? That kind of writing (in general) is often used when it is obvious what has happened/is happening, but it is not obvious here.

If he had removed his helmet I am 100% sure he would have died Floating Skull's idea of lightening sounds correct. With regards to stories I have one written as a short story for some coursework which has spanned 6pages and I still wasnt happy with the ending. I was going to make 3 short stories as a brief trilogy but we may not cover that writing style again

In Series 3, various Dungeoneers are actually told to remove the helmet - or rather, lift it above their heads - so that they can hear the potentially helpful babblings of the otherwise-silent Oracle. A device whereby they found out one of the 'steps' for Merlin's room.
There is also an interesting helmet-removing scene in the 3rd Knightmare gamebook, The Fortress Of Assassins. If you are naive enough to follow the instructions on a chest and make a wish before removing your helmet and opening the lid, a bogart springs out, throws sleep dust in your exposed face, and steals everything you have. Treguard gets pretty annoyed!
The issue of removing the helmet is certainly an intriguing one.

It is true however that before lifting up the helmet to listen to the oracle, Treguard says to keep thier eyes closed! So Mally's theory is still appropriate, and probalbly the best theory for actually having a helmet!
As for Labyrinths of Fear, Im usually dead way before meeting Mogdread! I remember one time I ate the silver grapes......I advise everyone, DONT EAT SILVER GRAPES!

Well, that would be a temptation for them.
I think I'd have it stop giving useful information after a while. They'd probably get the clue to move on when it tells them what Hordriss uses to create those fabulous red streaks in his hair.
And Treguard would give a few hints about the threat to life force. But there'd still be a danger of being greedy and listening too long.
Apologies for bumping, but i want to reply!! Wouldn't you stand by the food if you wanted to be greedy? Danger team, life force critical! Ok (name), food in bag now!
