👉 Hellish Pastures is a bizarre, hidden domain of demonic bovines, exclusive to GnollHack.
Location: Accessible via a magic portal located between levels 8 and 14 of Gehennom. Consists of a single level.
Hellish Pastures (also known as the cow level) introduces a highly dangerous but rewarding diversion.
Characteristics
- Layout: A Hellish, open pasture environment, sharply contrasting with the tight mazes of the rest of Gehennom.
- Inhabitants: The level is swarming with demonic bovines, minotaurs, and other cow-like monstrosities.
- The Barn from Hell: The central structure of the level, housing the most dangerous enemies and the best loot.
Special Qualities
While it may seem like a joke, the Hellish Pastures is incredibly dangerous. The enemies here hit extremely hard and can quickly trample an unprepared adventurer.
