[QUOTE="kennew142, post: 3984367, member: 18490"] Far Realms is something I will definitely be using in my next 4e campaign, even though my cosmology will likely be very different from the official D&D cosmology. IMC demons are a more mundane sort of evil, the sort that wants to destroy creation because it exists. Creatures from the Far Realms do not want to destroy anything. They are like alien, uncaring terraformers (exoformers?), changind the rules of reality to better suit themselves, with no regard for any sophonts who may happen to exist in our universe. They have no malice towards our form of life; they just don't care. That said, I have been thinking of connecting the abyss and the far realms in some way. Since I don't use gods in my campaign, perhaps the abyss is the result of the far realms intruding into the normal universe via the Elemental Chaos (the weakest point it could find in normal space?). As a fan of all things Lovecraftian, I am not sure that there should be any place on the map (cosmologically speaking) that you can point at and label [I]The Far Realms[/I]. [/QUOTE]
