-'''Seal Doors''' is a monster-only spell which seals shut not only [[door]]s, but [[stairs]] as well, making them impassible/unusable by the player until the duration of the effect ends, the [[vault warden]] which created the seal is killed, or the seal has been destroyed. A door that is sealed shut will immediately shove any items, creatures, or even players out of the way in the process of closing; there is no way to prevent the effect. Even broken doors can be sealed -- this will leave behind a functional door once the seal wears off.

-Sealed doors can, however, be opened by monsters, usually because they were aware of you but on the other side of the door when it closed. The tension mechanic makes this unlikely, and this destroys the seal. It is possible to leave via the door when this happens, but it is likely the vault warden will recast the spell soon.
