Varisia

The ceiling of this unnaturally cold chamber arches to a vaulted height of twenty feet. The floor is scattered with eleven wooden lids, haphazardly covering pits in the ground. From the darkness below, eerie shuffling sounds and low moans echo upward. Each pit is 20 feet deep, and the fragile wooden covers collapse under any weight. A DC 13 Dexterity save allows a character to leap to safety; failure results in a fall and a grim fate. Each pit holds a human zombie, undead remnants from an age long past, their flesh sustained by ancient necromantic magic. Once, the Bakrakhani used these pits to torment prisoners—now they serve as Erylium’s playthings. Among them lurks Koruvus, a former Seven Tooth goblin hero. Twisted by drinking from Lamashtu’s altar, he is now a monstrous, insane servant of Erylium. Though she quickly grew weary of him, she tasked him with guarding her "flock" here. He obeys obsessively, only leaving to drink or scavenge for rats in the tunnels.
