Its entrance is shaped like a gaping maw, its tunnels are lined with bones, passage through certain areas requires swimming through tunnels filled with repulsive organic fluids, and its halls are vaults of ribs, corded cartilage and pulsing veins.

Aversions are not notable as examples.
* AlwaysABiggerFish: In the fifth part of the ''Extinction Curse'' adventure path, ''Lord of the Black Sands'', the players are teleported to the Black Desert and, soon after they enter the desert proper, are scripted to be attacked by three purple worms -- a somewhat challenging but not especially dangerous by that point in the adventure. In the third round of combat, however, Iffdahsil bursts out of the sand like a vision from a nightmare, instantly devouring all surviving worms as it enters the field. Notably, Iffdahsil doesn't attack -- it's more bemused at the auras the players gain earlier in the story -- and serves chiefly as a reminder to the players that they're treading in a realm ruled by beings far beyond their power and comprehension.

* BeneathTheEarth: They particularly draw inspiration from pulp fiction of the early 1900s, such as Creator/EdgarRiceBurroughs's ''Pellucidar''. They're divided into three layers:
** The uppermost layer, Nar-Voth, consists of extremely deep and extensive but otherwise fairly normal caverns (which are often isolated and do not form a continuous network), and is the most familiar layer to the surface-dwellers. While most of it is sparsely populated stony wilderness, it is also home to fairly normal humanoids like [[OurGoblinsAreDifferent goblins]], [[LizardFolk troglodytes]] and [[OurDwarvesAreAllTheSame duergar]].
** Sekamina, the middle layer, consists of much larger and more thoroughly interconnected caverns and tunnels, extending beneath most of the world’s surface. It is home to more reclusive and dangerous races like the [[OurElvesAreBetter drow]] and [[OurGhoulsAreDifferent ghouls]], who rule true underground empires, alongside monsters such as [[SpiderPeople driders]], [[TheMorlocks morlocks]] and [[Franchise/CthulhuMythos gugs]]. It has more exotic terrain than Nar-Voth, including fungal forests, volcanic caves and a true subterranean sea.
** Finally, the deepest level -- the Vaults of Orv -- is as much a subject of fear and mystery for the people of Nar-Voth and Sekamina as the Darklands as a whole are for surface-dwellers. It consists of massive caverns the size of nations, some dark and others lit by artificial suns or glowing crystals, containing environments such as deserts, rainforests, ruined cities, mountain ranges and a vast subterranean ocean. The Vaults are inhabited by a great variety of monsters, ranging from dinosaurs, dragons, [[BigCreepyCrawlies monstrous arthropods]] and the undead to a variety of [[EldritchAbomination unspeakable horrors]]. They did not form naturally, but were excavated by a powerful earth elemental {{Precursor|s}} race called the Xiomorn to host their evolutionary experiments.
