I don't know anything speicificly about it, other then its supposed to transcend the other planes. It doesen't sound that amazing really. I think it would make the other settings have a less solid feel and belittle their importance. Something i don't understand though, If demons and devils represent radically different ethical alignments (law and chaos) why do they look so similar? would it make sense if babylon 5 had both the vorlons and shadows look entirely like one or the other, but not both? For demons and devils to make sense they should look very very very different. Its should be apparent in all their buildings, in the way they dress, the way they walk, etc... If they are magic, they would even force them selves to look different from echother. The problem is, changeing demons and devils to look different would diverge the look of demons and devils who are almost interchangeable in our real life mythologys, they really were quite similar in apparence. and are interchangeable. I think two powerful races of order and chaos are cool, but i don't think demons and devils fit the bill.  In my game, they are interchangeable. They only good thing about demons and devils differences is it explains why their entrance onto earth from hell doesen't happen on a regular basses (in the world, not for the pcs). Demons and devils fight echother more then the lower planes. Thats easily solved with  plane magic being alot harder to cast, even by the strongest of demons, and the lesser demons or devils have a requires lesser amounts of magic.</blockquote>
