Zacharias' Demi-plane

Zacharias' Demi-plane is a vast, seemingly endless black void with a solid floor. It can be accessed via Zacharias' portal magic.

The party frequently uses the plane. It serves as a rest area, a means of sneaking the entire party through dangerous places, but most notably as an inter-dimensional prison for the parties enemies.

Description
The Demi-plane is a vast black void with no features whatsoever. There is a floor to the plane that is also black and allows for the plane to be traversed by mortals. It is not known how far the plane goes but it seems to expand outward for miles in every direction. There is a possibility that the plane is infinitely large.

It was created by Zacharias himself but he has explained that this process took much time for him which is why he only has access to one demi-plane.

The Captives
The party has taken four individuals captive. Two of these captives have been killed by the party for the danger they posed, while the other two remain as captives in the demi-plane.

The captives are:
 * Gaybar [Captured 1x08]
 * Captured to by Ara, who Gaybar had threatened with violence prior. Tricked when G'aetan tricked Gaybar as a gnome guard escorting Zacharias as a "prisoner".
 * Commander Sigbor [Captured 1x10]
 * Captured when Ara brought him into the ethereal plane after he discovered her attempt to steal a security rune.

Former Captives

 * Nyra Ynthimar [Captured 1x05; Days Captive 3; Executed 1x11]
 * Captured along with Rin after attempting to assassinate Symania.
 * Executed by Morgun.
 * Rin Ynthimar [Captured 1x05; Days Captive 3; Executed 1x11]
 * Captured along with Nyra after attempting to assassinate Symania.
 * Attempted to escape and cast a spell on G'aetan.
 * Executed by Phoebe using poison.

The Monstrosities
After the party discovered an abandoned Monstrosities Lab that had caged creatures who were being starved out by Last Mount staff, Zacharias felt compelled to give the creatures a home in his Portal. The issue of food and a future home for these creatures is in the air.

Under Zacharias' nose, some of the creatures have been sacrificed to Dominus, with the possibility of more falling under his claw in the future.

The Creatures in the Portal are (in cage placement order):
 * An Owlbear mother and two cubs.
 * Three unidentified rabid koala creatures.
 * An unidentified humanoid creature with a bulging belly and a spider face.
 * A Manticore
 * A Banderhobb
 * Morgun recognized the creature from his military service. It has a short lifespan of less an a month and can know the exact direction and location of any creature which it possesses the belonging of. He has yet to share this with the rest of the party.
 * A tortured lobster-man hybrid. Killed by Dominus.

The Infernal Essence Stockpile
G'aetan and Ara stole the entire stock of infernal essences from the Infernal-kin Trials. This stockpile is in a different area from the prisoners.

It seems to contain a majority of the possible infernal essences, of varying colors and origins. There are hundreds within the pile. Ara determined that there was no Pact Devil essence in the pile due to the rarity of the species (1x12).

Trivia

 * The Demi-plane was another entirely improvised element by Tyler after he realized the party needed a safe place to stay after the assassination attempt from Rin and Nyra. The party very quickly realized the utility of the demi-plane and used it to capture their would be assassin.
 * One of the parties' favorite maneuvers was to have only one or two party members use stealth around Last Mount while the rest remained in the Demi-plane to be released when the time is right.
 * Morgun and Shifty Jim have both expressed discomfort with being in the plane for extended periods of time, as they are uncertain when they will be let out by Zacharias and have a fear that, should Zacharias die, that they will be trapped inside.
