The Infernal Syndrome - Hall of Hellscapes question (spoilers)


Council of Thieves


I asked this in another thread, but I'm not sure it was seen, so I thought I'd repost.

In room F27 on page 44, it looks like there might be some placeholder text there.

Spoiler:
the pit fiend’s face fills the mirror and unleashes a blast of despair and hopelessness into the viewer’s mind. This causes ability damage or another effect

I couldn't find what the effect was. Did I miss it somewhere?

Left to my own devices, I'll probably do this:

Spoiler:
Mirrors 1-6 each do 1d6 points of stat damage with mirror 1 affecting STR down to mirror 6 affecting CHA.

Mirror 7 inflicts a negative level

Mirror 8 makes the viewer panicked, possibly causing them to flee into F28.

But, I'd prefer something more official. Thanks.

It looks like the ability damage/effect got left off of the Hellscape Mirrors table on the next page, alas. Your solution is pretty good, and more or less in line with what was supposed to go in there.
