The Nacreum.

The Nacreum is a transdimensional prison composed of intelligent nacre.

The Nacreum was built to hold slippery characters such as The Eel.

In the News


The Nacreum can travel quite widely in time and space.

It does this independently of Abalonia, which has similar abilities.

This time-space travelling ability is presumed (by whom?) to be some form of the Gnomon Algorithm.

The Nacreum is (usually) located in Abalonia.

Gnotilus, the founder and first citizen of Abalonia, keeps many of his prisoners in the Nacreum.

Euphoriolanus occasionally gets himself committed to the Nacreum for what he he calls "a bit of recreational incarceration."

The Nacreum would be delighted to confine Spider-Man for an issue or two.
