A detected altar

An altar of some kind. You cannot tell what deity it is consecrated to without
approaching it.
%%%%
A faded altar of an unknown god

aeons. Praying at it will convert you to an unknown god, and the altar's deity
will greatly appreciate conversion at so ancient a site of worship.

A glowing golden altar of the Shining One

An altar to the Shining One, made from the purest gold and almost blinding in
its radiance.
%%%%
A broken altar of Ashenzari

A crystal altar which shattered to pieces when Ashenzari was cursed. There is
still a great power remaining within it: a dark aura holds the shards in

An altar to Beogh, unmistakably roughly hewn by orcish artisans.

brightly even in the dim dungeon light.

A hazy altar of Hepliaklqana

An altar to Hepliaklqana the Forgotten, shrouded in mist and difficult to make
out clearly. Something about it seems terribly familiar, but it's impossible to
say exactly why.
%%%%
A candlelit altar of Ignis

An altar to Ignis, the Dying Flame. It's completely covered in candles of all
shapes and sizes, but only one remains alight, its slender flame wavering in the
slightest breeze.
%%%%
A viscous altar of Jiyva

A slimy, ever-shifting altar to Jiyva. You're not sure what it's made from, and
you don't really want to know.
%%%%

An altar created from piles of ancient bones, dedicated to the terrible
Demon-God Kikubaaqudgha.

one scale and a pictogram representing power and enlightenment in the other.
%%%%

in long forgotten scripts. Atop a deep blue pedestal hovers a shimmering
condensation of pure magic.
%%%%
A bloodstained altar of Trog

An altar to Trog the Wrathful, crudely made by what seem to be the hands of
giants and covered with bloodstains.
%%%%
A hide-covered altar of Uskayaw

An altar to Uskayaw the Reveller. It appears to be hollow and covered in a hide,
giving it a resonant surface. Carvings on the side depict grouped figures that
could be dancing or loving or fighting.
%%%%
A radiant altar of Vehumet

An altar, ablaze in the lights of Iskenderun and promising great destructive
powers to those who would follow Vehumet.
%%%%
An ornate altar of the Wu Jian Council

A red and gold altar to the Wu Jian Council. Sharp slivers of steel drift
through the quiet air surrounding it.

it would be roasted in no time.
%%%%
The floor

The floor.

Nothing but the mythical salamander can cross this without flight.
%%%%
Some shallow water

A pool of cloudy, waist-deep water. Those well-adapted to water can swim

and will occasionally fail to attack in melee when wading through shallow
water; although large creatures are able to keep their balance, move at a
normal speed, and avoid fumbling.
%%%%
A toxic bog

A filthy pool of poisonous, waist-deep sludge. Wading or swimming through the
sludge will damage and poison any creature, even those resistant to poison.

%%%%
A translucent rock wall

A rock wall made from a mineral as translucent as good quality glass. Whether
it is natural or magical, you cannot tell.
%%%%
A translucent stone wall

A harder obstacle than rock walls. Only the mightiest magic can shatter stone

A wall consisting of simple rock.

A shop in the dungeon, beyond sight of the world above, manned by a secretive

goods.

much food as you will ever need for this journey, but the occasional nibble
wouldn't hurt.

A cache of meat

A stash of preserved meats of varied origins and preparations: strips of jerky,
lumpy smoked sausages, and indeterminate protein rations. You already carry as
much food as you will ever need for this journey, but this could offer the rare
chance to try out yak...

unlucky enough to step on it. You may find yourself petrified, contaminated
with enormous amounts of wild magic, have mighty fiends summoned against you,

### Area effects
########################################################################
haloed

This area is lit by a divine halo, decreasing your stealth, preventing
invisibility, and increasing the accuracy of attacks against any illuminated
creatures.

the shadows, and decreasing the accuracy of attacks by those unattuned to the
shadows.
%%%%

attack in melee to sometimes fail.
%%%%
disjunction haloed

%%%%

### Other effects
########################################################################
ice covered

This wall is covered in magical ice that freezes victims who wander nearby.

creatures. Each victim is only ever affected by one icy wall at a time.

The creator of this icy covering and any of their allies can walk safely past
this wall.
%%%%
awoken

allowing it to lash out out at any adjacent enemies of the creature who awoke
it.

fire. The resulting blaze can flare up, spreading to areas nearby and igniting
other trees.
%%%%
mangrove burning

fire. Mangroves do not burn as vigorously as normal trees, due to growing on
swampy terrain, and leave behind shallow water after they smoulder.
%%%%
demonic tree burning

It is susceptible to bolts of lightning and to sufficiently intense sources of
fire. Burning this tree releases a cloud of pure chaos instead of flames.
