[QUOTE="PsyzhranV2, post: 7814472, member: 7015332"] Avernus is not a nice place to live. Nobody who lives there is happy about it. Everybody and their mother is comparing this book to Mad Max, and I'd say the comparison is pretty on the mark, at least as a starting point. Most of the plane is split between various warlords (think Immortan Joe) who have risen to fill the power vacuum that Zariel's negligence has created. Players can expect to encounter a few of them and to have to defend themselves from mugging and grand theft auto. Meanwhile, the Blood War continues to rage on, and sites of Abyssal corruption in Avernus from the constant invasion of Demons are easy to find. Also, the book contains some optional rules to make the lives of non-Evil characters in Avernus even harder. It includes the Pervasive Evil rule from the DMG that turns characters Lawful Evil if they fail a DC 10 Wis save every time they long rest, but also includes a rule that makes normal travel equivalent to forced march for non-Evil characters, with the exhaustion levels that come with it. Oh, and Infernal Rapture, the restaurant [USER=6780330]@Parmandur[/USER] mentioned, is the best food you can hope to get. A second choice is going hunting for Abyssal Chickens, which taste like chicken. Everything else on the plane, whether brought from the Material, foraged from Avernus, or created via magic tastes like ash at best. [/QUOTE]
