[QUOTE="Quickleaf, post: 2459396, member: 20323"] It seems like you've got a good grasp of possible cosmologies. Cosmology deals with how to get there, and what the neighboring planes are. The more important part, IMHO, is the content/theme of the plane. What is it like once you get there? In what ways does this feel like an alien/mystifying/incomprehensible/hellish/heavenly place? If there are sentient inhabitants, how is their thinking totally foreign? Think of your typical fantasy world - lots of variety in outlooks and culture. Now a plane is that times 100. The PCs should, in every possible way, feel like strangers in a strange land. Focus on the content, and you may find the cosmology naturally evolves from it. Cheers! Great job! :) I really enjoyed checking out your site! The feel of the "Farthest" is similar to the approach I'm taking to the fairy lands in my Persian game. [/QUOTE]
