Try harder. That trip wire was meant more as an alarm than as a trap. Itzal darted into the nearest door. It looked around to see what it had to work with. The doors read "Pens", "Pencils", "Markers", " Paint".
Not exactly the most fruitful picking grounds, but workable.
Itzal moved quickly, knowing it didn't have much time to setup. It had the advantage that whoever is down there doesn't know which floor it is on. It also had the advantage of growing extra limbs. It started by placing a few mirrors, set up a few strings, then it started dipping into the supplies at hand. A paint bucket, lid removed, rigged to tip over when the door is opened. A face full of paint is not a good way to start a battle.
Next, it took a selection of artistic tools and draw quick sketches of itself on every surface. Nothing elaborate, just enough to confuse the issue. It had just enough time to set up a couple of dagger traps before cracking the door open and making a sound to let the opponent know where to look, then swiftly moved to its hidden vantage point.
