Overview
The Vault of Reflection is the third level of the Tomb of the Nine Gods, serving as the lair of Belchorzh the Unseen, an invisible beholder. This dungeon level is shown on Map 5.3 and features distinctive alien growth throughout its chambers.
Key Features
The level is claimed and inhabited by Belchorzh the Unseen, an invisible beholder who has infected the area with strange alien growth rather than exercising typical beholder lair actions and regional effects.
Location in the Tomb
This level represents the midpoint of the tomb’s descent, situated between Level 2 (Dungeon of Deception) above and Level 4 (Chambers of Horror) below. Characters exploring the tomb will encounter this level as they delve deeper toward Acererak’s ultimate trap.
Tactical Considerations
The presence of an invisible beholder as the primary threat makes this level particularly dangerous. Unlike typical beholder encounters, Belchorzh does not benefit from lair actions or regional effects, but the alien growth that permeates the vault creates its own environmental hazards and atmosphere.
