The Abyss

The Abyss spirals downward in virtually endless layers. Each layer is unique, but all have in common the bewitching illusions and overwhelming sense of hopelessness that send travellers insane.

Important Layers

The Endless Maze. Baphomet's layer of the Abyss is a never-ending dungeon. A confusing jumble of crooked hallways and myriad chambers, the centre of the maze is surrounded by a mile-wide moat concealing a maddening series of submerged stairs and tunnels leading deeper into the fortress.

Madness

A visitor must make a DC 10 Wisdom saving throw after each hour spent in The Abyss. On a failed save, the creature gains one level of exhaustion. A creature that gains six levels of exhaustion while on this plane doesn't die. Instead, the creature gains a random form of indefinite madness. Finishing a long rest doesn't reduce a creature's exhaustion level unless the creature leaves The Abyss.
