Message: <blockquote data-quote="Knightfall" data-source="post: 4580312" data-attributes="member: 2012">I had some strange ideas about the "layout" of the planes for a new cosmology...The first idea came to me when looking at my tiled bathroom floor. Basically, the cosmology is made up of tiled planes that interlock together. In an ordered universe, the tiles would be all the same shape while a disordered version would have tiles of many types of shapes that don't always fit together. In places where there are gaps, characters can literally fall into a void of nothingness. At the center of this cosmology, a grand city would be the hub of the universe, which could be Sigil (and it's spire) but it could just as easily be the City of Brass, Greyhawk, Ptolus, Union, or some other famous RPG city.The second idea came to me while looking in the mirrior. I had on my "Lucky 13" t-shirt, which has a skull and crossbones graphic on it. I call this idea the skull cosmology. The planes exist on the skull of some primordial first god. The teeth of the skull are the mortal realms while the eyesockets lead to the realms of the gods, which exist on the inside of the skull. Other various planes exist on the other parts of the skull.The third idea is the strangest. Imagine a universe that exists within a kitchen sink. Everything possible exists in this universe. The planes cover the inside of the sink and every once in a while the Great Spout gushes forth washing away the planes closest to the drain. There would be a lot of airships and spelljammers in this universe. And there would be cults dedicated to plugging the drain so that the Great Spout washes away everything. Heh. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" /></blockquote>
