Sargassos are simply areas that are completely magic dead.
They are extremely dangerous to spelljamming ships in that
a helm will not work in them.  After about 3 rounds, the
helm goes totally dead and the ship is stranded (unless it
can coast to the other side of the sargasso, which is not
likely).  If a spelljamming mage encounters one and knows
what he is dealing with, he is well advised to turn back
before he loses power totally.
