This room serves as the primary nexus for the inhabitants of the hive to invade the surface in conquest of yet more brains upon which to feed and nourish the hivemind. A shimmering and crackling psionic portal in the center of the room is the focus of attention as illithid creatures occasionally enter the chamber and flit through the portal. The chamber walls shimmer and hum with an intense psionic energy, acting more as mental barriers than physical ones. It is almost as if the architect of this Chamber used sheer imagination and mental will to construct its form.
