D&D 5E Gods in the mltliverse/great wheel

Technically, while Birthright itself did not reference the connection (at least as far as I know), Spelljammer did. Aebrynis was located within the Bloodspace crystal sphere, which can be reached by following a phlogiston flow from Greyspace. And since Spelljammer mentions it, it means it is also canonically a part of Planescape, and thus within the Great Wheel.

I can think of a number of references to Aebrynis within Planescape sourcebooks as well.

I was misremembering - I thought Complete Spacefarer's Handbook mentioned Birthright like it did Athas and Ravenloft, but it turns out it didn't. Upon consideration, that's fairly logical given that CSHB was released in 1992 (the whole Spelljammer product line was 1989-1993), and Birthright was released in 1995. So if there are any Birthright/Spelljammer references, they're likely from Dragon or something like that.

Hm, I think you are correct.

Still, Planescape books explicitly mention Aebrynis, and Spelljammer is canonical within Planescape, so there's that connection at least as far as published books go.
