So I've been stalking y'all for a while, and finally got around to registering. So this will be my first post. This will one will most likely be subjective as I don't think there are any RAW response to this particular question/request for advice.
One of my players is seriously comptemplating trying to rob a magic shop now that the owner is dead. He's usually a smart player but I'm afraid he's blinded by treasure lust(tm) and isn't going to give serious considerations as to what defenses may still be there.
Anyways, this particular magic shop is well stocked. There primary defense is an Iron Golem. If the shop is closed, and the password is not spoken with in one round of it becoming aware of a trespasser, it pulls a lever.
When that lever is pulled a mechanical trap is activated, locking down the doors & windows . . . and activating the anti-magic field throughout the entire building.
I seriously doubt he's going to be able to defeat an Iron Golem in a locked down Anti-Magic Zone. . . But if he suprises me
What Challange Rating would you assign, given the situation, for defeating the Golem?
How much would you give should he manage a daring escape?
How much should I award if he researches the situation and realizes he's in over his head?
