Variant that may appeal to North American gamers of a certain age:

Trapper Keeper

Spirit

Sages dispute the origin of this diabolical version of the standard Keeper spirit, but they are clearly closely related. The Trapper Keeper is obsessed with capturing and preserving delvers and their equipment. It keeps its dungeon meticulously organized with color-coded rooms and door-tabs for ease of reference. Most Trapper Keepers are obsessed with decorating their dungeons with culturally significant icons (unicorns, rainbows, kittens, etc.).

The Trapper Keeper has most of the traits of a standard Keeper, with these changes:

Replace Corrupt Weakness with:
Suspended Animation (20, resisted by HT): Every 15 seconds, the Trapper Keeper can cast Suspended Animation on any single target within its inner domain. Since this spell is permanent, it does not penalize additional castings.

Traits: Add the following:
Compulsive Behavior (color code everything); Energy Reserve 20 (Magical); Odious Personal Habit (thematic decoration scheme)

Skills:
Search-16
Most Trapper Keepers have developed a deep understanding of their collections, possibly represented by Eidetic Memory, Heraldry, Hidden Lore, Languages, Naturalist, Occultism, Research, Thaumatology, Theology, and/or others.

Notes: Trapper Keepers attempt to put any living beings into Suspended Animation. Once all interlopers are suspended, the spirit searches them and begins sorting them into its meticulously organized dungeon. Each Trapper Keeper has its own, often inscrutable, scheme. Delvers might be organized by profession, race, height, religion, or more esoteric measures. Possessions are similarly sorted into chambers with other similar objects. Most Trapper Keepers are especially obsessed with writing implements, paper, and smelly stickers.
