Like a swimming pool or a moat, but much more viscous and much hotter than water, and somewhat less inviting. Plus it's too dense to sink into and doesn't require you to periodically add chlorine or scoop out leaves. And it really doesn't matter if you don't wait an hour after eating before you jump in. A better simile, in fact, would be "not like a swimming pool." (cf.) Often used as a barrier rather than a trap proper, but with the right mechanisms and delivery chutes, a Lava Pit can make for a delightful surprise at the end of a long drop. Often found in a Lethal Lava Land. In urban or outer space settings (where flowing lava is hard to find), you can substitute a blast furnace, trash incinerator, open nuclear reactor, vat of molten metal, or really, anything that's very hot and lethal to anyone dropped in. This version may overlap with No OSHA Compliance. The Lava Pit can only work as a slow descending trap thanks to Convection, Schmonvection — that wonderful law that says rising heat can't kill you and only touching the lava is fatal. Funnily enough, however, in many platform games, the lava seems to have sufficient viscosity for the player to launch him/herself into the air, shoes/backside on fire. You'll lose Hit Points, of course. A subtrope of Lava Adds Awesome. May or may not be a part of Fire and Brimstone Hell. Supertrope to Lava Pot Volcano, where a perennial lava pit fills the crater of a volcanic mountain. Falling in one might kill you instantly, or boil you slowly and painfully in A Molten Date with Death. |

The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King: The big finish, when Gollum falls with the One Ring into a lava pit inside Mt. Doom.note In the book, it's just a "crack of fire", contents not clearly specified — Gollum falls over the edge and that's the end of it. In the movie, we get to watch him sink slowly into the lava, and the ring sits on the surface for a long couple of seconds before melting. Parodied in One Ring to Rule Them All 2. Sauron ties up Frodo and Sam and slowly lowers them into Mt. Doom. Very slowly. |

Justice League: In a variation, the Lava Pit that Orm chains his brother Aquaman and his baby son to was an underwater volcano. Aquaman has to chop off his own hand to save both himself and his son. Apokolips is a world teeming with Fire Pits, which in the finale are implied to be made by drilling right into the planet's magma core and letting all the smoke and flame spill out, which gives your atmosphere that nice Fire and Brimstone Hell look. The "implied" part comes when, during their latest Alien Invasion, Apokolips tries to perform this terraforming feat on Earth, turning us into a twisted mirror image of that world purely For the Evulz. |

Oblivion has plenty of lava in Mehrunes Dagon's realm (it's treated like water, only you constantly take large amounts of damage from it). Some of the caverns in his realm also have holes in the floor which drop you into pools that have no way out. Admittedly, it is not made clear that it actually is lava — Oblivion realms don't quite work as Mundus does, and red water that hurts you wouldn't be the oddest thing to be found. | |

World of Warcraft is in love with lava — and Convection, Schmonvection, as evidenced by the abundance of lava pits in zones like Blackrock Mountain, Burning Steppes, Dragonblight, Shadowmoon Valley, Ironforge, and others. It's also not entirely consistent regarding which lava is harmful — there are places where it's almost instantly fatal, places where it's annoying but not a major hazard as long as you get out quickly, and places where you can swim in or walk on it without any apparent ill effects. There's even one zone where you can fish in lava, although what you get out of it isn't edible. | |

Resident Evil: In Resident Evil 4, you get to pull this trope on a miniboss. Easy way to help your chances of survival, given that there's two (Only Works Once for some reason). However, you lose any loot you would've gotten from that boss. Unless you backtrack into the Arena after entering the next room. Chapter 5-2 also has a molten pit that you can knock mooks into. Resident Evil 5 does it one better: You get to do this on the Final Boss. Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles: You defeat one of the Tyrants by knocking him into the lava in the blast furnace. Subverted, as he comes back later with a vengeance. In Resident Evil 6, the Big Bad's facility is powered by geothermal energy coming from a semi-contained Lava Pit. Of course, you punch the Final Boss into it. However, it doesn't stop him. |

Skyrim: In the Dawnguard DLC, one of the side missions called "Lost to the Ages" involves the Dragonborn helping the disembodied spirit of an adventurer, Katria complete her life's work in discovering the Aetherium Forge, an ancient site of the Dwemer race said to be capable of forging great artifacts. After restoring the crest needed to enter the Forge, the two discover it's built over an inactive magma chamber. What's worse, however is what's inside the lava, as they soon learn when the resident guardian of the forge, a unique Dwarven Centurion called the Forgemaster, comes out to fight. And due to its decades-long "slumber" inside the burning hot lake, it's constantly glowing and capable of shooting a stream of fire as opposed to the typical Centurion's steam attack. | |

Dragon Age: Origins: In the Awakenings expansion, you can find a prisoner suspended in a metal cage above a lava pit (Convection, Schmonvection, it seems). You can set him free in exchange for a magical rune … or just be a dick and kick open the cage, sending him plummeting into the lava. | |

C.S. Lewis's The Space Trilogy has a segment in Perelandra where Ransom is inside a volcanic mountain. He disposes of a dead body by dropping it into the lava, and at one point he's in a kind of a natural water slide and is a little worried the slide will empty into a lava pit while he's rushing down it (it doesn't). | |

Dungeons & Dragons took this to its logical extreme in Dungeonscape where stats are provided for sadistic Game Masters that want to have sharks that can swim (and breathe) in lava. One assumes that they must be fed on a diet of adventurers considering that fairly few other things can and will submerge themselves in molten lava. | |

Dwarf Fortress: If you choose a site with a volcano or magma pipe, you can use the lava to build a variety of death traps, and it removes the need for coal to smelt most metals, except for steel. The only issue is the Fire Imps and Magma Men that come with said sites. Magma is the preferred way for most DF players to deal with virtually any problem. Too much garbage? Melt it in lava! Attacking hordes? Pump lava to the top of your tower, and pour liberally on any rash of invaders! Elves complaining about your deforestation? Melt the protesters! Your fortress flooding with regular water? Running out of good quality stone to craft with? Pour water and magma together, and you have an obsidian farming operation! | |

The Magma Pool (pictured above) from Neopets actually is a nice place for a swim. It turns one of your Neopets into a Magma Neopet. If you show up at the randomly-assigned ten minutes when the guard is asleep, that is. It's the only non-deadly lava pit in all of Moltara. There's also a lava pit item that can be placed in a player's garden. | |

The Legend of Zelda: As a whole, the franchise uses lava pits around the inevitable fire bosses (King Dodongo, Gleerok, Volvagia, Hot Head, etc.). Of interesting note is that, in many cases, the bosses themselves are vulnerable to the lava pit as soon as you incapacitate them or remove their armor. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time: Whether a lava pit merely depletes HP as Link stands on it (unless the Goron Tunic is worn) or acts as a Bottomless Pit that makes Link respawn to the area's entrance upon falling (with one heart deducted from his Life Meter) varies. Some pits, like those of Death Mountain Crater and the overworld area surrounding Ganon's Tower, act as the latter. In others, like those of Dodongo's Cavern and Fire Temple, lava just deals damage over time until you escape. You can tell what would happen upon contact by examining the surroundings and seeing whether or not you can theoretically escape or climb back. If you can't, then don't fall down! The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask: Some pits of lava can be found in Snowhead Temple (which is otherwise snow-themed) and Stone Tower Temple. They merely deplete Link's Life Meter gradually if he gets in as a Hylian, and transforming into a Goron will render him immune to lava. However, getting in as a Deku or Zora is lethal, because they're weak to fire. The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker: In contrast to the game's two predecessors in 3D, this one has all lava pits that force Link to respawn in the area entrance upon falling into lava pits, which is retained in all future games. Fortunately, there are usually water jars that cool down a part of the pit for a limited time, allowing Link to quickly traverse them; shooting an Ice Arrow at the lava has the same effect, becoming handy in a room from Ganon's Tower. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: Several of the Shrines found in the Eldin region have lava pits as navigational hazards. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom: While the lava has drained away from the surface of Death Mountain, it is still present in its various caves. The lava often blocks your path in a way that requires the use of Zonai vehicles to traverse across. |

Super Mario Bros.: Bowser loves his lava pits, considering every single one of his many castles has one. In the first game, the most common method to beat him is to drop him into one. Super Mario World has lava pools with slopes. It also has Palette Swapped pits of boiling mud in Chocolate Island and bubbling grayish "death water" in some of the fortress levels, which is used frequently in Platform Hell hacks. Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and its sequel Yoshi's Island DS has lava pits, which kill Yoshi instantly if he falls in. A lava pit also plays a part in the battles against Big Guy the Stilted, where he must be pushed into one so Yoshi can damage him. In New Super Mario Bros. U, Bowser even takes over Peach's castle and then arbitrarily gives her a giant lava pit for a moat. Said lava pit naturally just up and reverts to water without explanation when he's kicked out at the end. |

He threatens to retract them all the way unless Zidane and his selected party members fetch him the Gulug Stone from Oeilvert. However, after Zidane and the others leave, he says he hates keeping promises and puts the remaining party members on a ten-minute timer which can be reset by an hourglass, but only if Zidane makes it back in time. | |

Space Jam: A New Legacy: One of the deadly trials that Lola Bunny must overcome to become an Amazon warrior is to cross to the other side of a lava pit, using only a long wooden pole. Lola plants one end of her pole on a rock outcrop that somehow hasn't melted, and vaults across the pit in one bound. Bugs Bunny and Lebron James try the same maneuver, but are less successful. Lola has to interrupt her test of worthiness to rescue these two from a horrible fate. | |

The Elder Scrolls In Morrowind, there are plenty in the old Dwemer ruins around Vvardenfell. Justified, since the island is basically all part of a large shield volcano and because the Dwemer seemed to power their creations, at least in part, geothermally. If you join House Telvanni and construct a stronghold, you'll get your own personal lava pit included. Quite fitting for the Might Makes Right Evil Sorcerer Great House. Oblivion has plenty of lava in Mehrunes Dagon's realm (it's treated like water, only you constantly take large amounts of damage from it). Some of the caverns in his realm also have holes in the floor which drop you into pools that have no way out. Admittedly, it is not made clear that it actually is lava — Oblivion realms don't quite work as Mundus does, and red water that hurts you wouldn't be the oddest thing to be found. Skyrim: In the Dawnguard DLC, one of the side missions called "Lost to the Ages" involves the Dragonborn helping the disembodied spirit of an adventurer, Katria complete her life's work in discovering the Aetherium Forge, an ancient site of the Dwemer race said to be capable of forging great artifacts. After restoring the crest needed to enter the Forge, the two discover it's built over an inactive magma chamber. What's worse, however is what's inside the lava, as they soon learn when the resident guardian of the forge, a unique Dwarven Centurion called the Forgemaster, comes out to fight. And due to its decades-long "slumber" inside the burning hot lake, it's constantly glowing and capable of shooting a stream of fire as opposed to the typical Centurion's steam attack. |

La-Mulana: Several areas contain lava, which on top of draining your health like a mofo, is hard to swim around in, and disables your menus unless you have the Heatproof Case. Once you get the Ice Cape, you are completely invulnerable to lava.note Changed in the remake, where it lowers the lava's dps from critically lethal to manageable. Also, one of the steps to the Bonus Level of Hell requires you to drop down several screens of a bottomless Lava Pit. | |

Final Fantasy: Final Fantasy VI has these in two parts of the game: In the Sealed Cave in the World of Balance and in the Phoenix Cave in the World of Ruin. Falling into one reduces some HP and sends you to the entrance of that room. In Final Fantasy IX, Kuja traps your entire party in cells in his Desert Palace with floors that retract to reveal lava beneath them. He threatens to retract them all the way unless Zidane and his selected party members fetch him the Gulug Stone from Oeilvert. However, after Zidane and the others leave, he says he hates keeping promises and puts the remaining party members on a ten-minute timer which can be reset by an hourglass, but only if Zidane makes it back in time. |

An episode of Get Smart parodying The Prisoner of Zenda has Max swordfighting the bad guy next to a pit of molten metal. Max knocks the bad guy's sword out of his hand into the pit; bad guy's flunky cries out "I'll get it!" and steps into the pit, never to resurface. Bad guy shrugs "Good help is so hard to find these days!" | |

The Magician: The Chinese warlord in "Illusion of the Lost Dragon" has a lava pit concealed beneath the floor of the corridor leading to his inner sanctum. Anyone attempting to intrude has a limited time to solve the puzzle lock on the door before the slowly opening floor dumps them in the lava. | |

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time: Whether a lava pit merely depletes HP as Link stands on it (unless the Goron Tunic is worn) or acts as a Bottomless Pit that makes Link respawn to the area's entrance upon falling (with one heart deducted from his Life Meter) varies. Some pits, like those of Death Mountain Crater and the overworld area surrounding Ganon's Tower, act as the latter. In others, like those of Dodongo's Cavern and Fire Temple, lava just deals damage over time until you escape. You can tell what would happen upon contact by examining the surroundings and seeing whether or not you can theoretically escape or climb back. If you can't, then don't fall down! | |

Very common in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. Marble Zone, Hill Top Zone, Lava Reef Zone... the list goes on. Eggman is very creative about incorporating them into his gauntlets of traps. Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (8-bit) has a strange moment where Eggman actually saves you from falling into a lava pit, just so he can feed you to the level's boss, a robotic antlion. Red Mountain and Power Plant both feature sections where the player has to climb their way out of a lava pit (or molten energy pit, in the case of the latter) that's slowly rising. Red Mountain's only rises to a certain point, but Power Plant's will kill you if you can't climb quickly enough. In Sonic Frontiers, the Knight Titan boss fight takes place in a lava pit that has cooled down just enough to walk on. It's still very hot though, which becomes an issue in the segment where you have to climb the Titan, because just getting close enough to do so can burn you quite badly, on top of having to doge the massive attacks the Knight throws. |

In Morrowind, there are plenty in the old Dwemer ruins around Vvardenfell. Justified, since the island is basically all part of a large shield volcano and because the Dwemer seemed to power their creations, at least in part, geothermally. If you join House Telvanni and construct a stronghold, you'll get your own personal lava pit included. Quite fitting for the Might Makes Right Evil Sorcerer Great House. | |

The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask: Some pits of lava can be found in Snowhead Temple (which is otherwise snow-themed) and Stone Tower Temple. They merely deplete Link's Life Meter gradually if he gets in as a Hylian, and transforming into a Goron will render him immune to lava. However, getting in as a Deku or Zora is lethal, because they're weak to fire. | |

Minecraft: Underground lava pools are always a threat to the player's safety. Digging straight down poses the risk of falling into one with no easy way to climb back out — that's why not digging straight down is an unspoken rule of the game — and they're also very common at the bottom of ravines, adding a particular risk to falling off when exploring them. The player can scoop up lava with a bucket and use it to fashion lava pits of their own, either as a trap, defense, or a prank. | |

Myst: Comes up a few times in the series. The original game had a small chasm in the Selenitic Age, containing rocks hot enough to emit fire — and in realMyst, actual lava along with it. Riven has a few locations that show exposed lava pits, along with an underground corridor completely surrounded by lava. Considering that the entire Age is unstable and on the verge of collapse, it's somewhat justified. Myst III: Exile has a room in the Voltaic Age that the player can fill and drain of lava at will, designed to provide air to a hot-air balloon elsewhere in the age. Eder Gira in Uru is split in half by a wide lava pit — which the player will panic-link away from when inches from the surface. Naturally, there's an island in the middle that needs to be jumped onto to complete a steam valve puzzle. |

In MacGyver (1985), Mac escaped from many variations of this, including an incinerator ("Jerico Games"), a nuclear reactor ("Flames End"), and even an actual pit of lava ("Good Knight, MacGyver"). Also, Murdoc threatens Pete with one (actually a vat of boiling water, but the same basic principle) in "Cleo Rocks." | |

In Impressive Title, lava pits can be found just about almost anywhere, ranging from alpine forests like Shadow Veldt, dying wastelands like Wyvern Hills, and Anointed Hills, and tropical grasslands like Labyrinth. | |

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom: While the lava has drained away from the surface of Death Mountain, it is still present in its various caves. The lava often blocks your path in a way that requires the use of Zonai vehicles to traverse across. | |

In the Transformers comics, smelting pits are generally used for particularly gruesome executions. If you like putting people into these, we know you're a creep. | |

In the wake of the Beyonder's attack on Earth in Secret Wars II, a large chunk of the planet was ripped away, leaving one of these the size of a large country, before it was eventually repaired. | |

The climax of Noir takes place over a Lava Pit, in the mystical dimension in-between Spain and France. No, not Andorra. Altenna dies by falling into it. Kirika almost falls with her, but Mireille saves her. | |

Seen in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, with the variation that the unfortunate prisoner has his heart removed before being lowered, and the heart catches fire when the poor man is dipped into the lava. | |
