Aincrad is a massive, floating steel castle, consisting of 100 interconnected floors


Author's Note: Aincrad is the iconic setting of Sword Art Online, a colossal, floating fortress suspended in the virtual sky. Shaped like an inverted cone, it features 100 expansive floors, each representing a unique world with its own landscapes, towns, forests, mountains, and dungeons. The floors are stacked like layers, with higher levels becoming progressively more challenging to navigate and conquer. Each floor is connected by labyrinths, which players must traverse to locate and defeat powerful floor bosses to unlock access to the next level. The environment within Aincrad is immersive and diverse, ranging from tranquil villages and bustling cities to treacherous wildernesses and dark, monster-filled caverns. What makes Aincrad particularly perilous is the death game imposed on its players. Once trapped in this virtual world, players are unable to log out, and dying in the game results in death in real life. This high-stakes environment amplifies the tension as players struggle to survive, form alliances, and strive to clear all 100 floors to escape the fortress and regain their freedom. Its combination of beauty, danger, and mystery makes Aincrad a striking and unforgettable setting.

Wall of Ice

The devil magically forms an opaque wall of ice on a solid surface it can see within 60 feet of it. The wall is 1 foot thick and up to 30 feet long and 10 feet high, or it's a hemispherical dome up to 20 feet in diameter. When the wall appears, each creature in its space is pushed out of it by the shortest route. The creature chooses which side of the wall to end up on, unless the creature is incapacitated. The creature then makes a DC 17 Dexterity saving throw, taking 35 (10d6) cold damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. The wall lasts for 1 minute or until the devil is incapacitated or dies. The wall can be damaged and breached; each 10-foot section has AC 5, 30 hit points, vulnerability to fire damage, and immunity to acid, cold, necrotic, poison, and psychic damage. If a section is destroyed, it leaves behind a sheet of frigid air in the space the wall occupied. Whenever a creature finishes moving through the frigid air on a turn, willingly or otherwise, the creature must make a DC 17 Constitution saving throw, taking 17 (5d6) cold damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. The frigid air dissipates when the rest of the wall vanishes.
