Porphatys

❌ Porpathys, or more fully Porphatys of the Black Snow, was the fifth layer of Carceri.

Description
Porphathys looked like a bead of planet-sized orbs without a string. The distance between two orbs were several millions of miles.

Features
The cold orbs of Porphatys were each covered by a shallow ocean. The water was cold and acidic. People could die from bathing in it.

Another festure of Porphatys was the constant black snow. It was acidic. It was especially dangerous to organic matter and made travel from one orb to another dangerous because giant clouds of it were in the space between the orbs.

The ocean had small islands of the height of sandbars. They had a lot of caves and were on one hand desired living space for the inhabitants, who generally wanted to leave the entire layer.

Locations
As a general rule, buildings did not withstand the plane's acidic nature.

Notable Locations

 * Ship of One Hundred: The ship, also called the White Caravel, harbored a hundred sarcophagi. Opening one made everyone on the ship disappear by unknown means.

Inhabitants
Petitioners of Porphatys were the souls of shallow and self-absorbed people. They were immune to the acid except for pain. They pushed each other from the islands into the ocean and ate each other.
