Wizard Laboratories (or Wizlabs) are a collection of mini-branches, most of which are themed around and named after a particular wizard mentioned elsewhere in the game. Each contains a significant amount of loot, as well as unique challenges and enemies found nowhere else in the game. Only one wizard laboratory can generate per game, and not all games are guaranteed to have one. They can be accessed through timed portals randomly found in the Depths, the Vaults, the Crypt, or the Elven Halls.
List of Wizard Laboratories
Cigotuvi's Fleshworks - Twisting halls full of the results of twisted experiments. Only the fortunate will escape with their genes unscathed.
Cloud Mages' Chambers - Halls full of clouds and creatures of the winds. At the end waits a master Air Mage.
Doroklohe's Tomb - Many powerful entities lie quietly entombed here, but their tombs will not stay closed for long...
Hall of the Hellbinder - An evil temple filled with demons and the cultists that traffick with them..
Iskenderun's Mystic Tower - Chock full of students of Iskenderun, all of whom are happy to practice their Conjurations on intruders.
