REGIONAL EFFECTS

The region contai
ning Graz'zt's lair is warped by his

magic, creati
ng one or more of the following effects:

• Flat surfaces within 1 mile of the lair that are made

of stone or metal become highly reflective, as though

polished to a shine. These surfaces become supernat-

urally mirrorlike.

• Wild beasts
  within 6 miles of the lair break into fre-

quent conflic

ts and coupling, mirroring the behavior

that occurs

during their mating seasons.

• If a humanoid spends at least 1 hour withi n 1 mil

on a DC 23
