The Labyrinth

Northheast of the Darklake in Undermountain lies a vast region known as the Labyrinth. Stretching well over 100 miles north to south and better than 50 miles east to west, the Labyrinth obstructs travel from Nargila and the rest of Undermountain.
The Labyrinth consists of a relatively small number of once minor caves that were drastically expanded long ago by the delving of countless tunnels and passages. The entire area is shot through with numerous rifts, so it is not uncommon for a tunnel to dead-end at a massive chasm, then continue on a few hundred feet up or down on the other side. Gigantic staircases wind around some of these chasms, but others - possibly more recent additions - offer no easy detours. Mercenaries and adventurers bound for Kelibyr, or other locations in eastern Undermountain, make use of a few of the more direct and well marked paths, but anyone straying from the known routes is likely to starve to death, hopelessly lost.
The Labyrinth is, unsurprisingly, renowned as minotaur territory. Fierce bands of these savage warriors would be bad enough, but most minotaur clans are led by baphitaurs - fiendish creatures that combine the worst characteristics of minotaurs and demons. Some time long ago, the minotaurs carved out a mighty realm here, but the savages that now occupy the Labyrinth know nothing of their past. Exiles and loners of all races find the quieter portions of the Labyrinth a good place to hide.
