In IVAN there are only two types of true traps: bear traps and landmines.
If a trap is active, it is hidden from view, unless placed by your character. However, you can detect these hidden traps by [[Search]]ing and thus can avoid them.
Note that planting any trap inside a city ([[Attnam]] or [[New Attnam]]) will instantly make the entire city hostile.
==BeartrapBear Trap==
These are usually found in the [[Underwater Tunnels]] levels, but are also found in [[Gloomy Caves]], but not quite as often. The further into the game you are, the stronger the [[Materials|material]] the traps are made out of. The ones found in the [[Secret Rooms]] generally tend to be made of [[Adamant]].
The beartrapbear trap's main purpose is to clamp onto your leg, damaging it and prevent you from moving, however if it is made of a strong enough material, it can simply sever your limb.<br>Sometimes when planting a beartrap bear trap for your own use, you can get caught in it by accident. The chance of this happening increases if you are [[Character|burdened, stressed]], [[exhausted]] or fainting.<br> Other bodyparts can also get caught whilst trying to escape from the beartrap, and occasionally trying to free yourself will damage one of your trapped bodyparts. Be warned that getting your head stuck in a beartrap bear trap is one of the easiest ways to die, as the amount of damage necessary to sever your head is very, ''very'' small.
You can deactivate beartraps bear traps by kicking them, picking them up whilst levitating, or breaking them somehow (e.g. an explosion.)<br>
However, be warned that attempting to pick up an active bear trap has a chance of trapping a limb instead.
