Castle Avernus Torture Chamber

At a glance

A dark-metal chamber of cages and restraint devices arranged around a dagger-lined magic circle and a copper brazier.

Known facts

  • The room’s walls share the dark metallic surface of the Beast Prison.
  • Rows of cages and torture devices fill the chamber.
  • A copper brazier stands inside a foreboding magic circle, with daggers mounted around the walls.
  • Rage felt the circle siphon magic when he entered it.
  • Carver judged that interfering with the brazier’s fire would be dangerous and identified the arrangement as a form of magical torture chamber.
  • When Rage broke a restraint chain, the circle changed and the wall daggers glowed.
  • Breaking the final restraint chains released a massive fire elemental, which summoned smaller elementals and wielded a sword of black, smoldering rock.
  • Pearl destroyed the large elemental, and the party cleared the remaining smaller elementals.

Current status

The released elemental has been destroyed, but the damaged torture apparatus remains dangerous and its original purpose is unclear. The party has departed Castle Avernus.
