Carceri, or
Tarterus, is the
plane of
Chaotic Neutral Evil in the
AD&D/
Planescape cosmology. It has a complex structure of nested globes on six layers, and is said to be seven times as hard to leave as to enter. The
titans dwell here, imprisoned by
Zeus for their crimes. In
Greek mythology, Tarterus was said to be seven times as far below
Hades as
Hades was below
Earth. Carceri lies between the
Abyss and the
Grey Waste.
