[QUOTE="Greenfield, post: 5999609, member: 6669384"] And if the plane has no name? Then it would give it's location. For example, a [I]Genesis[/I] spawned demi-plane would be identified by its location in the Ethereal Plane. So the unnamed plane from the [I]Rope Trick[/I] could only be identified by its location. Except it has no location, other than the position of the only portal to it. Now I suppose the caster could name his [I]Rope Trick[/I] plane, but it would be up to the DM to decide if simply applying a personal label, known to nobody else, is in any way meaningful. Think of it this way, you're on a ship called the Pequod. But you like to think of it as the Amnesia. You're in the Sea of Swords, but you like to think of it as the Stormy Sea. What names would a [I]Discern Location[/I] provide? Obviously, the names these are actually known by, so if you give a very temporary plane a name, and it isn't actually known by that name to anyone outside it, the only person you're likely to fool is yourself.
