The Magma sea is a large, multi-level 'sea' of magma that expands across the entire world. These can typically be found by around Z level -120 (though this seems to vary wildly (minimum -5 maximum -450 z level)[Verify]. The magma sea is always found below the last Cavern level.

It is not uncommon to find multiple z-levels of pillars of Template:L in the magma sea (in fact, it's almost guaranteed in a 3x3 embark square).

In addition, around and under the magma sea is Template:L. Which is impassible. There is Template:L however; Template:L, actually.

Any natural rock walls collapsed onto the magma sea (I believe onto the semi-molten rock, to be precise) vanishes[Verify], as if it fell out of the bottom of the map. Gone. Forever. Only thing that's left is some dust and magma mist.
