S3 - Pool Room Uses

Maybe the room could start to overflow, and fill gradually with water. This would be a cue for the dungeoneer to exit with haste.

Could have had a mermaid i.e a heroine much like Gwendoline, velda etc but one that lives in the water and gives helpful advice to dungeoneers.

Perhaps a resident 'water monster' - an elemental balance to the wall monsters? Aquaeous Of Legend, perhaps...

... a Lochness Monster type creature.

Well, I suppose we could always use the pool to drown Gretel. Or maybe just hold her under for a while and tell her it'll make her beautiful.

Thankfully gretal was dead before the S3 pool room thanks to the appearence of the much less annoing melliesandre. What if a wellway appeared from the pool room and rised out of the water the wouldve been a spectacle but it was a fake and they died of drowning. they souldve used the pool to restore life force.

Wasn't there Jaws music when the shark came on?

I always used to like the Pool room. I don't think it was particularly under used because there were so many different rooms to use in series 3.

Well, if it were the Jaws theme exactly, John Williams might have had something to say about it. As it is, I think it's a nudge-and-wink parody of it.

Wolfshead

Yeah that was it. The music was made to sound like the Jaws theme but it sticks in my mind as the actual Jaws theme. Sometimes they do a parody of Axel F on the Simpsons that has a similar effect.

Does anyone remember the shark pool room? I can't remember what srries it was from but it was pretty weird and scary! The dungeoneer had to walk througha pool with a shark in it!

Hi, steved, and welcome to the forum. The pool room appeared on Level 1 of Series 3 a number of times, though the shark's fin was only seen there once (Martin's quest, Team 11). If you check the Series 3 pages on knightmare.com, you can find a picture of that. It certainly put the advisors into a panic.

There's an interesting topic about the room here: http://www.knightmare.com/forum/http://www.knightmare.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=1;action=display;threadid=1577

I was thinking recently about the occasion when a sword rose out of the water. Could it have been a Lady Of The Lake reference?

I always assumed that was the case - nice little touch I thought. I also vaguely remember the shark fin's appearance being accompanied by some Jaws-like music!

This was always my favourite room when I was young. It had good suspense. Martin's quest was also one of my favourites due to this!

I remember Martin's quest. I also remember the Jaws type music.

Pretty scary stuff!

I wouldn't ne suprised is the sword had something to do with the Lady Of The Lake as Knightmare is littered with references to Arturian legend.

Sometimes it was empty and i remember it had a snake in once which scared Motley
