I designed my current Homebrew Campaign to be Levels 1-10 in Varisia and 11-20 in The Abyss. At Level 13 we have now had many sessions on about six different Layers of The Abyss, and here is what I have been doing: Dog likes to eat

In addition to, or sometimes instead of, Abyssal Traits -- Each Layer of The Abyss has its own Turn in Initiative (I have it go one Initiative 1.) and I select Spells that I think 'The Abyss' would cast against the PCs. Maybe a list of 10 spells and when it's The Abyss' turn in Initiative I roll a d10 to see what The Abyss does to the PCs. (Maybe I pick 12 spells and roll randomly a d12, or 20 spells and a d20.)

For The Rasping Rifts, maybe stuff like Summon Swarm, and Summon Monster IX: Great Big Insect, and Insect Plague or whatever.

Anyway, my 2 CP

Is this information was helpful or not? If any question then let me know.

I know what the planar traits of the Abyss are.

"Wrath of the Righteous - 05 - Herald of the Ivory Labyrinth" tells us what the specific (the standard Abyssal traits plus its shape and direction) planar traits of the Ivory Labyrinth are, but nowhere can I find any specific traits (beyond the standard Abyssal traits) of the Rasping Rifts.

Specifically, I want to know if it's finite or infinite?

If it's finite, what's its shape if that's particularly noteworthy?

Thanks.

Hello,

The Rasping Rifts, as described in the Pathfinder setting, are indeed a mysterious and ominous location within the Abyss. The standard traits of the Abyss include being infinitely expansive, which suggests that many of its realms, including potentially the Rasping Rifts, are infinite as well. However, specific details about the size and shape of the Rasping Rifts are not explicitly detailed in the available resources.

The Rasping Rifts are known as the realm of the demon lord Deskari, and it’s characterized by its chaotic and destructive nature. It’s a place where swarms of insects are spawned daily to wreak havoc. This description aligns with the typical portrayal of the Abyss as a place without clear boundaries or limits, which further supports the idea of it being infinite.

I hope the information may helps you.
