Thanatos, the Belly of Death, is the 113th layer of the Abyss. Once the realm of XXXXXX, since his murder some 200 years ago this land has been the home of the demigoddess Kiaransalee. This land is a land of death; once hostile to all of life, now barely accepting of those that follow her faith. The very land itself strikes at those that would attempt to pass upon it in life; not only is it saturated with negative energy that sustains the dead and sickens the living, but it lacks for all but the most tenacious life, and the air here is as thin as a mountain's peak. It's rare that any but the Dustmen dare to enter the realm, though that faction has held outposts here for centuries. Any living being on Thanatos must pass a DC 15 Fortitude save each hour or gain one step of fatigue, passing out for one hour if already exhausted. Anyone that dies upon Thanatos animates within an hour as an undead most befitting the nature of their death, or a zombie if nothing especially applies. This realm is especially beneficial to the necromantic arts, though, the entire realm affected as though by a desecrate spell. Further, any undead creature gains fast healing 3 on Thanatos. This does not stack with any fast healing they may already have.

In the summer, Kiaransalee rules over the plane from the Forbidden Citadel, a fortress shaped as the goddess herself in the center of Lachrymosa, a city on the Styx that stands as one of the few places in the realm hospitable to mortal life. In the winter, she rules from Naratyr, City of the Dead, a necropolis found where the Styx pours onto the Frozen Sea, where vampires, spectres, and banshees all quarrel for an audience with her and the living are few and far between.
