| Slaves of the Abyss | comment |
Slaves of the Abyss is the 32nd entry of the Fighting Fantasy series of Gamebooks, written by Paul Mason and Steve Williams. It's a semi-sequel to the tabletop module The Riddling Reaver, the setup being influenced by things that happened there.The city of Kallamehr is under siege. Its army is away facing invading forces, but the danger is far greater than any members of the Royal Family of Kallamehr can anticipate. Defenseless and facing a new threat of possible supernatural origin, the noble Lady Carolina of Kallamehr summons a band of warriors and adventurers, including YOU.You are a warrior wielding a sword crafted from Fangthane steel, an experienced adventurer, veteran warrior and seasoned traveler who have traveled through the seas and deserts outside Kallamehr. The world outside is your home, a sky of stars is a roof over your head, and you spend your days wandering the lands with your trust being your sword. For you, every quest, every battle, is just a way of life for you, and the battle for freedom of Kallamehr, to you, is just another adventure for you to participate in. Little do you know, it will be a literally life-changing quest...You arrive just as Kallamehr is preparing for war with Bei-Han. The city is deserted; warriors, heroes, knights and mercenaries employed by Lady Carolina have amassed around the city gates, but will that be enough to save Kallamehr?Will you manage to preserve this stronghold of Good against the invading hordes? Or is this task beyond even your heroic abilities? You will need your wits as well as your sword of Fangthane steel to prevent the sands of time engulfing the city ...The Fighting Fantasy series will return to Kallamehr for one last time in Magehunter. | |

| Slaves of the Abyss / int_2197beaf | comment |
Can't Refuse the Call Anymore: In the beginning you are given the opportunity to leave Kallamehr for your adventure, or stay in the city behind the safety of its walls. If you chose the latter, the book will throw several hints and chances at you to leave the city as soon as possible. And if you still stubbornly insists on staying behind, you are then treated to a Time Skip where Kallamehr gets destroyed, and you are among the casualties. | |

Throwing Your Sword Always Works: You can learn the special move, Spitting Fly from your mentor Barolo, which allows you to throw your sword with deadly precision. Most of the time it's an effective One-Hit Kill move. But if you meet Bythos in person, DON'T try this move on him. Just... don't. Unless you got him laughing mad first. | |

You actually need this mark to succeed in your quest, since it's a continuity marker that you uncovered her plot and killed her. | |

Pyrrhic Victory: If you took too long to complete your quest, even if you defeat Bythos eventually, you realize that you are unable to stop the forces of evil from destroying Kallamehr and wiping out almost its entire population. With thousands of innocent lives lost your quest is a failure... If you defeat Bythos in time, but fail to defeat Sige the Silent, she will take over as Lord of Kallamehr... and you will be unable to stop her. The citizens of Kallamehr can only enjoy their freedom a short time before her tyranny plunges the city into chaos once more... | |

Mirror Scare | |
| Slaves of the Abyss / int_bc1faa80 | comment |
Mirror Scare: One occurs early in the adventure if you chose to stay behind in Kallamehr instead of venturing out for adventure, in the form of a gruesome old hag suddenly appearing before you. Turns out that was actually an omen, a foreshadowing of sorts warning you NOT to stay behind in Kallamehr; if you insist on staying, you die with the rest of the city when Kallamehr falls... | |

Shout-Out | |
| Slaves of the Abyss / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The cover art depicting a barred prison window floating in space is possibly a reference to Supertramp's album cover Crime of the Century. | |

Wake Up Fighting | |
| Slaves of the Abyss / int_cacbab76 | comment |
Wake Up Fighting: When three Black Elf robbers tries sneaking upon you as you snooze near a campfire, you instinctively wake up and lashes out at them, and if you're lucky, you can instant-kill one leaving only the other two to fight. | |

Anti-Villain | |
| Slaves of the Abyss / int_d001c42c | comment |
Anti-Villain: The Riddling Reaver, despite being the one who killed Kallamehr's previous ruler, actually shows up to help out the hero when another villain's threatening the city, admonishing them to focus on the big picture, and giving them an item that lets them insta-kill the main villain's avatar. | |

Taken for Granite | |
| Slaves of the Abyss / int_d08049db | comment |
Taken for Granite: You discover soon enough that the Crystal Warriors serving Bythos are — or were — his former enemies, crystalized alive and animated by his magic. And if you fall under his power, this can happen to you too... | |

Floating Head Syndrome | |
| Slaves of the Abyss / int_d09eafbc | comment |
Floating Head Syndrome: The front cover of the book shows Bythos' giant, disembodied head floating outside his Interdimensional Prison. If you're unlucky, you probably had a cameo as one of the prisoners on the cover as well... | |

No Ending | |
| Slaves of the Abyss / int_ea2e9f2d | comment |
No Ending: One of the Non-Standard Game Over scenes ends literally in mid-sentence. (It is implied that you are assassinated by an unseen killer, but nothing else is revealed.) | |

Scary Stinging Swarm | |
| Slaves of the Abyss / int_ebfaf704 | comment |
Scary Stinging Swarm: Running into a hornet swarm (summoned by Bythos himself!) gets you overwhelmed instantly, and leads to 2/3 instant death decisions. | |

Wise Serpent: Althea the sorceress's familiar is a serpent named Caduceus who serves as her advisor, and a wise ally to the forces of good. In the book's best ending, Caduceus even helps you obtain the power of the gods so you may rule over the abyss. | |
