（法利斯·基爾·蘇瑪姆，一位末日衛士團祭司，對真空位面有以下幾點要說。Fallis Kyll Thummam, a Doomguard priest, has the following to say about the plane of Vacuum.
——編者the Editor）
萬物終將死亡、褪色、腐朽。
Everything dies, fades, or decays.
最終，甚至是最偉大的「存在」也將歸於虛無的一部分。幽默老終The End 總是會贏。而 真空位面The plane of Vacuum 就是幽默老終。
In the end, even the greatest of "somethings」 becomes a part of nothing. The End, always wins. The plane of Vacuum is The End.
我們，末日衛士團the Doomguard，目睹着時間隨着巨輪轉動，多元宇宙在慢慢地衰落。內層位面The Inner Planes 與 負能量位面the Negative Energy Plane 的邊界體現了我們的信念。雖然 灰燼位面Ash、塵埃位面Dust 和 鹽位面Salt 都體現了物質與水分的緩慢瓦解，但真空位面揭示了萬物的空無。當時間也迎來終結，宇宙腐朽為虛無，萬物都將變成真空位面。我們稱之為「空寂之境Empty Reach」，或者有時，正如我已經說過的，簡單地稱之為「幽默老終」。
We, the Doomguard, see that as the wheel of time turns, the multiverse slowly wanes. The Inner Planes bordering the Negative Energy Plane exemplify our belief. While Ash, Dust,and Salt manifest the slow disintegration of matter and moisture, the plane of Vacuum demonstrates the utter lack of everything. When time is over and the universe has decayed into nothingness, all will be as the plane of Vacuum. We call it the Empty Reach, or some-times, as I've already stated, simply The End.
這個位面沒有差異化的邊界區域——它們全都是無盡的空虛、延伸到了永恆的極限。同樣的，它缺乏其它位面的隱藏區域或微妙的風險。它是一片純粹的空無。真空位面朝 側位面列表Parallelists 臉上吐了口唾沫，因為你會發現在其它位面里發現的一切東西都不會出現在這裡——除了極少數例外之外，這裡一無所有。
This plane has no differing border areas-it's all the same endless void stretching to the limits of eternity. Likewise, it lacks the hidden areas or subtle dangers of other planes. There's just nothing. The plane of Vacuum spits in the face of Parallelists, for just about everything that a body might find in the other Inner Planes fails to appear here—with just a few exceptions, nothing shows up here.
[印記城黑話：Body——就是"someone"在位面間的說法.]
這就是關鍵。
That's the whole point.
◆物理條件PHYSICAL CONDITIONS◆
真空准物質位面缺乏光亮、空氣和水分。它完全沒有熱量，物質也很少。它的美就在於它的純粹。
The Quasielemental Plane of Vacuum lacks light, air, or water. It is completely without heat and has so little matter that it might as well be a blank slate. Its beauty lies in its simplicity.
到達這裡GETTING HERE
幾乎沒有人在找真空准元素位面。畢竟，這裡沒有太多可見之物，而可供開發的資源則更少。
Almost no one seeks the quasiplane of Vacuum. After all, there isn't a whole lot here for a body to see, and even fewer resources to exploit.
傳聞說，甚至是在 印記城Sigil 里通往真空准元素位面的傳送門也非常之少。除了隨着我們的 軍械庫Armory 一起消失的那個外，大部分巴佬連一個都想不起來。
Chant is that very few portals to the quasiplane of Vacuum are to be found even in Sigil. 0ther than the one that vanished with our now-lost Armory, most berks can't think of even one.
[印記城黑話：Chant, the 表示新聞，本地閒話，事實，情形或者其他任何有關當前局勢的事情.]<br /
[印記城黑話：Berk 巴佬。一個笨蛋，尤指那些因為搞不清狀況而把自己捲入大麻煩的傢伙。]
有一道名為 嚎叫之門the Howling Gate 的小傳送門連接着 喧癲空隧Pandemonium 的瘋狂國度與真空准元素位面。使用它的鑰匙僅僅是與空氣接觸。由於喧癲空隧的旋風環繞着它吹過，這道傳送門一直保持着開啟的狀態，源源不斷的氣流穿過這道門進入到真空的空無之中。這陣風如夏季颶風般猛烈，可能會把某位粗心的旅行者猛拽着帶到那片令人窒息的深淵中。
A small portal called the Howling Gate links the barmy realms of Pandemonium with the quasiplane of Vacuum. The key to its use is simply contact with air. As the winds of Pandemonium whip around it, the gate remains forever open and a steady draft of air rushes into the emptiness of Vacuum beyond the gate. This wind gusts with the force of a summer's gale, threatening to yank a careless traveler through into the suffocating abyss beyond.
[印記城黑話：Barmy 瘋狂的，精神失常的，例如 "The winds of Pandemonium'll drive a body barmy if he stays too long." Barmies指瘋子，神經病,尤其是指那些在印記城中，被多元宇宙的無垠嚇倒的傢伙。]
據信，通向真空准元素位面的旋窩可能懸掛在主物質位面世界之間的空曠中。當然，這樣的導管可能會危害到那些定期往返與這些空間的魔法船。但普通人幾乎不可能遭遇它們。（說到魔法船，那些老割經常吹屁某些喚作 燃素phlogiston 的東西——那很好，但燃素不是虛空，虛空也不是燃素）。
It is believed that vortices to the quasiplane of Vacuum may hang in the emptiness between prime-material worlds. Certainly such conduits might be a hazard to those spelljammers who ply such spaces, but they are hardly likely to be encountered by average folk. (Speaking of spelljammers, those cutters often rattle their bone-boxes about something called the phlogiston-that's fine, but phlogiston isn't vacuum and vice versa.)
[印記城黑話：Cutter 傢伙，夥計。 對於其他人的一種普通稱呼，不限男女，由於這種稱呼帶有一些親切的意味，所以比稱呼別人berk要好得多。]
[印記城黑話：Bone-box 嘴巴，得名於其中的牙齒，獠牙或其他之類的。 "Stop rattling your bone-box,"是告訴一個笨蛋停止恐嚇或是吹牛。]
危險HAZARDS
真空准元素位面的空虛超乎大多數人的想象。它是如此的徹底，以至於除非某人親身前往，否則幾乎不可能被準確描述出來。一些老登喋喋不休地討論着真空的危險——缺乏大氣將阻止溫度的傳播，而且沒有空氣將導致缺乏壓力，導致這只可憐蟲自爆。事實證明，那全是些連篇屁話。雖然這個位面完全沒有空氣，但仍然有壓力和恆定的溫度。可以肯定是，前者很微弱，而後者很寒冷，但它本可以更糟不是嗎。事情就是這樣。有時候那些老登說的也並不對。
The emptiness of the quasiplane of Vacuum defies most imaginations. It's so absolute that until a body's been here himself, it's near impossible to convey. Some graybeards sputter on about the dangers of a vacuum -that the lack of atmosphere doesn't allow a transmission of temperature and that without air, the lack of pressure'll cause a sod's own body to burst. Turns out, that's all screed. While the plane is marked by the complete lack of air, there is still pressure and constant temperature. To be sure, the former is slight and the ltter cool, but it could be so much worse. That's just the way it is. Sometimes the graybeards are wrong.
[印記城黑話：Graybeard 灰鬍子。智者或是學者。這個詞指那些已然上了年紀但依然頭腦清晰，知識豐富的老傢伙，但也可以用於稱呼任何博學之人，甚至是女人。]
[印記城黑話：Sod 可憐蟲，討厭鬼。指一個不幸的或可憐的傢伙。使用此詞時，是對一個不幸的傢伙表示同情或是對那些陷入自己製造的麻煩中的白痴的挖苦。]
[印記城黑話：Screed 一個勁地罵罵咧咧或某人在這樣做。如指人，則是指一個長篇大論都是胡言亂語的人或簡單地指一個好爭論的人。如"Don't listen to him, he's just a screed."]
呼吸與感知BREATHING AND SENSES
這裡沒有空氣（或是能化作空氣的物質），所以像 氣化元素airy element 或 呼吸元素breathe element 這樣的法術無法運作。那些調用氣元素學派的魔法物品也不行。某人的生存時間取決於他的屏息生存時間，除非他施展 無須呼吸no breath 並完全不需要空氣。
There's no air (or matter to convert to air) here, so spells akin to airy element or breathe element do not work. Neither do magical items that draw on the Elemental Air school. A body'll survive only for as long as he can hold his breath, unless he can cast no breath and do without air altogether.
這種對空氣的缺乏對特定形態的元素生物而言是致命的。氣態元素生物，像是煙准元素將在暴露於真空准元素位面中時，每輪失去1生命骰或等級。
This lack of air is deadly to certain forms of elemental creature. Gaseous elemental creatures like smoke paraelementals lose 1 Hit Die or level per round of exposure to quasielemental Vacum.
如果沒有空氣擋路，某人可能會覺得能看的更有。事實上，如果他自己帶了光源的話，這說法是正確的。這裡沒有自然光線，也沒有像燈籠或提燈這樣的東西需要的空氣。其它光源（包括魔法光源），其照明範圍都將兩倍於正常。
Without any air to get in the way, one would think that a body could see an awfully long way. And, indeed, this is true enough, if he has his own light source. There's no natural ilumination here, and no air for things like lanterns or torches. Any other light source, including magical spells, iluminates twice the normal range.
熱感視覺在真空准位面中運轉的很好。其範圍的增益對這種視覺同樣有效，所以通常熱感視覺可看見90呎遠的生物，現在可以看見180呎遠的熱源。
Infiravision works well enough in the quasiplane of Vacuum. The same increase in range applies to this sight as well, so a creature whose infravision normally allowsit to see as far as 90 feet would be able to see heat sources at a distance of 180 feet.
真空焊接VACUUM WELDING
真空的性質對無生命的事物也有可怕的影響，這在鉸接結構上最為明顯。真空焊接會影響任何東西，從一套板甲的關節到鐘錶驚駭的機械肢體。
The nature of Vacuum has a terrible effect on inanimate things as well, which becomes most apparent in the case of articulated mechanisms. Vacuum welding affects anything from the joints in a suit of plate armor to the mechanical limbs of a clockwork horror.
任何複雜的鉸接結構在真空准位面每呆1小時，都需要進行一次對抗強酸豁免檢定。如果這個裝置很簡單（就像一套盔甲上的膝關節一樣），其豁免骰獲得+4獎勵。負責設備，如法條機構，會在此骰上遭受-4懲罰。DM可以根據需要替換或添加其它調整。此豁免檢定失敗表示對象已被凍結、無法移動。修復是有可能的，但只有在對象被移動到有空氣的地方才可進行。
For each hour that an articulated mechanism of any complexity spends in the quasiplane of Vacuum, a saving throw vs. acid is required. If the device is simple (like the knee -joint on a suit of armor), a +4 bonus is applied to the roll. Complex devices such as clockwork mechanisms suffer a -4 penalty to the roll. Other adjustments may be substituted or added as desired by the DM. Failure at this saving throw indicates that the object in question has frozen up and is no longer able to move. Repairs are possible, but only after the object is removed to a place with a breathable atmosphere.
移動相關MOVING ABOUT
在真空准位面中，某人可以像在 氣元素位面the Elemental Plane of Air 中那樣，從一處移動到另一處。因此，他只需要選擇一個「向下」的方向，就可以利用此方式墜落。
A body in the quasiplane of Vacuum can travel from place to place just as he might in the Elemental Plane of Air. Thus, he need only choose a direction as "down" and begin to fall that way.
使用翅膀或其它類似方式飛行的生物，將發現自己無法在真空側位面內活動。畢竟，只有在有空氣（或一些相關介質）供其拍打時，這些手段才能生效。
Creatures who use wings or other such means to fly find themselves unable to get about in the quasiplane of Vacum. After all, such things function only when there is air (or some related medium) for them to beat upon.
有推進功能的魔法裝置運轉的很好。舉例來說，飛行術fly 將允許某人以合理的速度行進。像 飛行掃帚broom of flying 或 飛毯flying carpet 這樣的魔法物品運行的也很好。然而，那些模仿翅膀的魔法物品將無效。
Magical means of propulsion function well enough. A fly spell, for example, permits a body to travel at a fair speed. Magical items like a broom of flying or a flying carpet function as well. However, magical items that mimic wings do not operate.
◆居民INHABITANTS◆
雖然許多人覺得真空准位面沒有生命，但事實遠非如此。可以肯定的是，這裡並非到處都是動物甚至元素，但也有一些強韌的生物棲息於此，如果某人準備在這個位面里花上大量的時間，某些東西他必須知曉。
While many think that the quasiplane of Vacuum is devoid of life, this is far from the truth. To be sure, it's not overflowing with animals or even elementals, but some tough creatures dwell here and a body has to know what to watch out for if he's going to spend much time in the plane.
准元素QUASIELEMENTALS
大量准元素在真空中昂首闊步。它們是些侵略性的傢伙，會摧毀所遇到的任何人和任何物品，因為它們渴望將近乎原初的家園的所有物質清除。
A good many quasielementals strut about amid the vacuum. They're aggressive things, destroying anyone or anything they come across in their desire to eliminate all matter from their virtually pristine home.
不存在如真空魔蝠這樣的東西——至少現在沒有了。傳言說，這些生物曾經分布在整個准位面上，直至它們錯誤地站在了准元素的對立面。隨後發生了一場種族滅絕戰爭，在這場戰爭中，虛空魔蝠void mephits（它們的正確稱呼）被滅絕了。
There's no such thing as a vacuum mephit-at least, not any more. Chant is that these creatures were once found all over the quasiplane, until they got themselves on the wrong side of the quasielementals. A genocidal war followed in which the void mephits (as they were properly called) were swept out of existence.
這就是真空之道——當某人在這裡戰鬥時，它將超越像存在或不存在這樣的基本概念。一位精明的位面行者會把一切不那麼基本或原始的東西拋在身後。
That's the way of Vacuum-when one battles here, it's over such basic concepts as existence or nonexistence. A canny planewalker leaves anything less basic or primal behind.
動物和怪物ANIMALS AND MONSTERS
在真空准位面中沒有自然生物棲息。偶爾會有某人遭遇到一群鳥或其它空中生物在一個氣口袋中築巢，但那個空氣口袋就是它的全部活動範圍。
No natural animals live in the quasiplane of Vacuum. Occasionally a body comes upon a pocket of air in which a flock of birds or other aerial creatures lair, but that's the extent of it.
和許多白痴告訴你的相反，此處有像真空元素動物這樣的東西。這種誤解不足為奇，因為它們數量非常稀少，並且往往是一群與世隔絕的隱居生物，就像你在其它任何地方可以遇見的那樣。
There are such things as vacuum animentals, even though a lot of leatherheads might tell you otherwise. The misconception is unsurprising, because there are very few of them and they tend to be about as reclusive a bunch of creatures as a body will find anywhere.
[印記城黑話：Leatherhead 皮革腦袋。引申為一個笨蛋，一個愚鈍的或沒腦子的傢伙。這個詞是用來稱呼某人為白痴的。也可作形容詞。如在 "a leatherheaded sod".]
飄入真空側元素開闊空間的怪物很少。然而，正像你想象的那樣，它們通常異常的堅忍。畢竟，在這任何東西都活不了太長的時間。這裡發現的少量怪物，與那些魔法船在兩個世界之間的巨大空襲中報告所遭遇的怪物類似。
Few monsters drift in the open space of Quasielemental Vacuum. As a body might imagine, though, they're generally exceedingly tough. After all, anything less won't survive for very long. A handful of the monsters found here are similar to those which spelljammers have reported encountering in the great voids between worlds.
該位面中的另一種威脅是真菌 伊加魯斯蕈egarus，它以虛無本身為養料。因為它對物質存在的需要，所以它對物質事物和生物——甚至是能量——的反應很糟糕。只有夠蠢的人才會在這種真菌滋生處周圍停留足夠長的時間，以發現它對消除他們的存在能做的事情。簡單來說，伊加魯斯蕈能將他們消滅。
Another hazard of this plane is the egarus fungus that thrives on nothingness itself. Because of its need for the absence of matter, it reacts badly to material objects and creatures- -even energy. Only the foolish remain around the fungal growth long enough to find out what it can do to rectify their existence. Quite simply, the egarus can take it away.
其它種族OTHER RACES
有相當數量的不死生物，主要是幽魂和類似傢伙，在於負能量位面的交界處飛來飛去。它們與通常會避開其它任何事物的 幽靈死駭spectral deaths 共享着這片區域。
A fair number of undead creatures, ghosts and the like mostly, swoop around near the junction with Negative Energy. They share this region with spectral deaths, who generally avoid all contact with anything.
被稱為 虛無者vacuous 的不死生物在這片空曠的荒野上巡狩，找尋落單的生物將其摧毀。不過，准元素們憎惡它們，兩個種族之間的戰爭永恆持續着。
Undead creatures known as vacuous hunt the empty wastes, looking for stragglers to destroy. The quasielementals hate them, however, and war between these two races rages eternally.
主要勢力MAJER PLAYERS
有兩隻生活在真空准元素位面的生物特別值得討論。祂們都是邪惡的，這種特質似乎只會因為靠近負能量位面而被放大。
Two creatures living the quasiplane of Vacuum merit special discussion. Both of them are evil, a trait which seems only to be amplified by the proximity of the Negative Energy Plane.
日鳴SUN SING
日鳴Sun Sing 是一隻神秘的生物，棲息在一個負能量口袋的中心。他究竟是如何在這樣一個地方生存的，是一個許多人都想解開的謎團。
SUN SING. Sun Sing is a mysterious creature that lives at the heart of a negative energy pocket. Exactly how he survives in such a place is a mystery that many folk would love to unravel.
沒有人知道日鳴是誰或者是什麼。在一些圈子中的傳言說他是最後一隻倖存的虛空魔蝠，通過變得如一位 元素大君archomental 般強大而得以倖存。其他人則說他是位巫妖或半巫妖，為了躲避與活人的一切接觸而撤退到了這裡。無論它的秘密是什麼，在可見的未來中似乎都沒有人能揭開。
No one knows for sure who or what Sun Sing is. Chant in some circles is that he's the last surviving void mephit, having survived by becoming nearly as powerful as an archomental. Others say that he's a lich or demilich who retreated here to escape all contact with the living. Whatever the dark of it is, no one seems likely to find out in the near future.
[印記城黑話：Dark 任何秘密可稱為dark. "Here's the dark of it,"等於說 "I've got a secret and I'll share it with you."]
情報販子聲稱日鳴有少量的不死生物特工在多元宇宙中移動。大量的故事表明，日鳴的特工在致力於收集一些謎題的碎片。這些可能是物理事物或是某些信息的碎片；沒有人知道。你只能確定一件事：日鳴的特工（如果它們存在）必定如他一般邪惡，並且它們所承諾的任何行動都必須很可怕。
Chant-mongers claim that Sun Sing has a handful of undead agents moving through the multiverse. Numerous stories indicate that Sing's agents are hard at work gathering the pieces of some puzzle. These might be physical things or bits of information; no one knows. A body can only be certain of one thing: Sun Sing' s agents (if they exist) must certainly be as evil as he, and any operation to which they have committed themselves must be dire indeed.
「毀滅者」扎爾ZAL THE DESTROYER
毫無疑問，在探索真空准位面時，你可能遇到的最可怕生物就是「毀滅者」扎爾Zal the Destroyer（物質佬／男性眼魔／140 hp／混亂邪惡）。扎爾並非這個國度的原住民，但他似乎已經適應了此處的生活。
ZAL THE DESTROYER. Without a doubt, the most terrible known creature that a body might encounter while exploring the quasiplane of Vacuum is Zal the Destroyer (Pr/♂ beholder/140 hp/CE). Zal is not native to this realm, but appears to have adapted to life here as well as anything may.
扎爾是只巨型眼魔，完全有其正常親族的兩倍大小。任何對抗其力量的豁免檢定將遭受-4懲罰，並且其所有能力的射程都翻倍。扎爾免疫真空，作為他保鏢的三打普通眼魔也是如此。
Zal is a giant beholder, fully twice the size of his normal kin. Any saving throw made to resist his powers suffers a -4 penalty and the range of all his abilities is doubled. Zal is immune to vacuum, as are the three dozen normal beholders who act as his guards.
這隻恐怖的生物因其肆意的暴力和不受控制的毀滅而得名。從他的堡壘（矗立在一片翻滾的冰元素碎片上）中，他指揮着一支致命的准元素軍隊。甚至是末日衛士團也認識到了扎爾是這個位面一股不可忽視的力量，我們正密切地關注着毀滅者的走向。
This terrible creature earned his name through wanton violence and unchecked annihilation. From his fortress (which stands on a tumbling fragment of elemental Ice) he commands the actions of a deadly army of quasielementals. Even the Doomguard recognize that Zal is a force to be reckoned with in this plane, and we keep a close watch on the Destroyer's movements.
◆地點THE SITES◆
雖然也有少量小建築矗立在真空准位面上，但其中的居民通常並非修建者。某人可能會認為扎爾的堡壘或日鳴的避難所很重要，但它們真的不值得被作為可憐蟲應去之處介紹。儘管如此，當某人到達此處前，他需要了解真空准位面中一個非常重要的地點。
While a few minor structures stand in the quasiplane of Vacuum, the inhabitants of this place are not generally builders. A body might consider Zal's fortress or the sanctuary of Sun Sing to be important, but they really don't merit descriptions as places a sod might visit. Still, a body needs to know about one highly important site in the quasiplane of Vacuum before he travels here.
呼氣城堡CITADEL EXHALUS
末日衛士團已滋滋這個准位面修建了一座重要堡壘。我們呼之為 呼氣城堡Citadel Exhalus，或是 余息大門the Portal of the Last Breath。圍繞着一扇特殊異界之門修建的呼氣城堡，允許我們直接與 終極毀滅者the ultimate Destroyer——負能量位面聯通。在這裡的許多人，包括 末日領主娜古爾the Doomlord Nagaul（位面佬／女性矮人／祭司 10濕婆Siva]／末日衛士團／中立善良），相信多元宇宙的解體是按計劃進行的，沒有理由倉促行事。
The Doomguard have fashioned an impressive fortress in this quasiplane. We call it Citadel Exhalus, or the Portal of the Last Breath. Built around a special gate, Exhalus allows us to commune directly with the ultimate Destroyer-the Negative Energy Plane. Many here, including the Doomlord Nagaul (Pl/♀dwarf/P 10 [Siva]/Doomguard/NG), believe that the disintegration of the multiverse proceeds on schedule and see no reason to hurry things along.
有時候，萬亡會the Dustmen 也會到這來，在堡壘的安全處敬畏負能量位面。這與我們很相宜。死亡者The Dead 有着令人驚訝的禮貌，是些值得信賴的客人。
Sometimes, the Dustmen come here to revere the plane of Negative Energy from the safety of the Citadel. That suits us just fine. The Dead make surprisingly polite and trustworthy guests.
[印記城黑話：Dustmen 印記城中的一個派系．他們基本信仰是每個人都是死的．也稱為死亡者．]
這種城堡為大約兩百位 惡化者Sinkers 提供了一個家，它不僅有通向 印記城Sigil 的傳送門，也有通向多元宇宙五、六個其它地方的傳送門——全的是我們擁有影響力的地方，這並非是巧合。
The Citadel provides a home to about two hundred Sinkers, and holds a portal not only to Sigil but to five or six other places in the multiverse- -all places where we hold a bit of influence, not coincidentally.
當然，有人說我們實際上在這裡維持了一座神殿，專門用來崇拜負能量位面和終極毀滅的概念。他們更是進一步斷言，在最近印記城中的 軍械庫大戰Battle at the Armory 中，我們未失去全部的 毀滅黑洞spheres of annihilation。
Course, there are those that say we've actually maintain a temple here dedicated to literally worshiping the plane of Negative Energy and the concept of utter annihilation. They further assert that our collection of spheres of annihilation were not completely lost at the recent Battle at the Armory in Sigil.
當被問及此事時，我們末日衛士團只會會心一笑。
We Doomguard just smile knowingly when asked about it.
◆位面行者在真空PLANEWALKERS IN VACUUM◆
來到真空位面的位面行者來與末日衛士團打交道，或是去做一件更蠢的事：尋找 薩薩卡斯的失落陵墓the Lost Tomb of S'sarkth。他們說，薩薩卡斯是一位一心想要在死後將財富留在身邊的強大國王。他對這個念頭是如此痴迷，以至於他命令他的魔法副官們將他完全密封、裝滿財富的墳墓丟進了真空位面里。
Planewalkers come to the plane of Vacuum to deal with the Doomguard, or to run a fool's errand looking for the Lost Tomb of S'sarkth. S'sarkth, they say, was a powerful king utterly consumed with the idea of keeping his wealth with him after his death. So obsessed was he that he bade his sorcerous lieutenants to cast his entire sealed, treasure-laden tomb into the plane of Vacuum after he died. Most folks believe this to be a foolish tale meant to send only the most addle-coved bashers to their dooms looking for a tomb in the void.
法術之鑰與其它必需品SPELL KEYS AND OTHER NECESSITIES
對這個位面法術之鑰難以使用，因為它們都以蒸汽形式存在，而這些蒸汽必須被獻給真空位面的無限虛空。除了儲存和運輸外，使用這些蒸汽的困難在於它們必須被呼出來才能生效。除了它們的絕大部分都至少有害、並且通常都有毒外，這件事也不算太難。
Spell keys for this plane are difcult to employ, for they all take the form of vapors that must be offered up to the endless void of Vacuum. The difficulty in using these fumes, beyond storing and transporting them, lies in the fact that they must be exhaled to take effect. This wouldn't be much of a handicap save for the fact that the vast majority of them are at the least noxious and often toxic.
即便有鑰匙，其環境仍然困難。召喚生物沒有什麼意義，因為大部分生物將立即死亡、淹沒在真空中。只有那些有即時效果的火焰法術才能生效，因為長效火法術無法維持自己。如果你必須在此旅行，請記住最後一點建議：雖然元素氣法術完全不能在真空位面施展，但你這類附魔可以在到達這個位面前施展。
Even with keys, conditions remain difficult. There is lttle point in summoning creatures, since most die immediately, drowning in vacum. Only those fire spells that have instant effect work, since long-term ones cannot sustain themselves. If one must travel here, remember this last bit of advice: Though spells of Elemental Air cannot be cast in Vacuum at all, such enchantments can be cast before one arrives in the plane.
