Realm of Feng-Tu This conduit hole is located on the banks of the river Styx, which runs into the hole forming a waterfall into the depths. See area 8 for details. At the bot- tom of the conduit the water rushes out into another branch of the Styx. This is the realm of Feng-Tu, home of the Chinese powers Tou Mu, Goddess of the North Star, and Lu Yueh, God of Epidemics. See the map on this page. The realm of Feng-Tu appears as a mighty citadel, Oriental in appearance, that rises up a branch of the Styx called How Nai-ho. Across the river from the conduit is the Gate of the Demons, Kuei-Men-Kuan, which is large enough to permit elephantine behemoths to pass through easily. The gods hold sway over a household of manes and demons of all sorts. If the PCs cross the river and present themselves at the gate, Type V demon guards demand their business. If the PCs try to fight, the walls around the fortress are instantly filled with Type III demons armed with crossbows +3. The gods are not interested in the PCs’ conflict with Orcus, 43 but if the characters want to worship at the temple inside the gates, they may do so, and receive a bless spell from the deities. Characters who accept this blessing move one alignment step toward chaotic evil. The gods themselves will not appear to the characters. 22. Temples of Kali This is a realm of jagged peaks and blood-red, tropical vegetation. A narrow path runs from the mountains where the conduit is located down into the deep jungle below. This is the realm of the goddess Kali, who represents destruction incarnate. See the map on page 44. The winding paths through this layer of the Abyss lead to the goddess’s decaying temples, overgrown with scarlet vines and crimson flowers.
This level is inhabited by most sorts of demons (especially nabassu), plus giant centipedes, spiders of all types, su-monsters, volts, will-o-wisps, assassin bugs, asian elephants, leucrotta, spirit naga, and various molds and slimes. Each temple of Kali is occupied by monks. There are three senior monks and 50 junior ones; all appear to be human. They welcome travelers and invite them to worship. (Worshiping Kali results in a movement of one step toward chaotic evil.) Characters who refuse to worship are invited to shelter in the temple, and are then attacked. If the characters have previously killed the Grandfather of Assassins, Kali herself appears and attacks; otherwise, the temple monks are all the characters must contend with. The three senior monks are all rakshasa; the 50 junior monks are all 7thlevel assassins. Each temple contains a treasure of potions of climbing, extra- healing, and invulnerability, scrolls of protection from illusions, plants, poison, and traps, a book of vile darkness, necklace of strangulation, scarab of death, hat of disguise, and a sword +2, nine lives stealer.

Vaprak of the Trolls The smell of rotting jungle vegetation greets you before you can exit the conduit. This layer is home to Vaprak, demigod of trolls and ogres. Thousands of both types of creatures live in the swamp. There is a 10% chance per turn of encountering Vaprak.
