Purgatories
These are moving illusions that appear flat against the mockery's walls like a projection on a screen. While most are impossible to pass through, a few act as labyrinthine gates that can be opened and closed via an elaborate lock and key.Sensory & Appearance
Monochrome
When the first walker stepped into this place the air had a thick metallic smell and tasted of oil.Abode is a cold place, with an icy mist clinging to corners at the ground's edge. It is a fairly even plane filled with hollow cubes of various sizes arrayed in such a way that the spaces between them become zigzaging hallways connected to interesting rooms. The walls, that is the cubes' faces, are either black or white or grey that adds a complication to studying distance.
Hazards & Traps
Monsters
An ecology of creatures with extra-dimensional qualities lurk the deep liminal halls. These include specimens of macrobacteria, goliath crustaceans and spectral-like insects transported from other places.Special Properties
Wave Functions
This is where the space between two point would suddenly become farther or closer to each. It is imperceptible to anyone actually in the middle of the event, and is the common reason people get lost.Time Skip
Time works differently in the maze. In an instant, someone can be moved forward months or years into the future at random.Alterations
Prime Base Camp
The starting camp is a company-sponsored site right next to the purgatory gate. It is built from prefabricated materials, modular bunk rooms, sterile facilities and a high-tech control center; all under constant surveillance with cameras and motion sensors. Despite its apparent efficiency, the camp has a fragile look to it. Something many guests and beginner explorers cannot help but comment on.
