The Tarterian Depths of Carceri

Material produced below is from the "Manual of the Planes"

It is a plane of exile.

It is the prison plane of the multiverse.

It is where the overthrown plot their return.

Carceri seems the least overtly dangerous of the lower planes, but that first impression quickly disappears. Acid seas and sulfurous atmospheres may be rare on this plane, and there are no areas of biting cold or infernos of raging heat. The danger of Carceri is a subtler thing.

The plane is a place of darkness and despair, of passions and poisons, and of kingdom-shattering betrayals. On Carceri, hatred runs like a deep, slow moving river. And there's no telling what the flood of treachery is going to consume next. It is said that a prisoner on Carceri may only escape when she has become stronger than whatever imprisoned her there. That's a difficult task on a palne whose very nature breeds despair, betrayal and self-hatred.
