How do you run it?

So I decided that traveling through Hell dimensions is more an act of will than physical travel. To navigate, the Sorcerer has to roll Lore and score a total of 5-10 successes to find their way through the dimensions to their desired destination. I found images online of hellscapes or psychedelic landscapes and showed those to my players. Each roll ends in an encounter (typically hostile) and I love that I have Trilemma's new monster book to pick weird and bizarre creatures from.

If they weren't just using it for travel but were going to a particular hell dimension for some reason I would probably run it differently, but for travel, this seems to capture the danger and strangeness. They fought a Vampire Tree last night and it messed them up.
