Message: <blockquote data-quote="Kid Charlemagne" data-source="post: 1902577" data-attributes="member: 93">I simplified the planar cosmology in my new campaign world significantly.I agree with Fusangite - there's no point in seperating the Elemental Planes from the Material - its what the Material Plane is made of.So in my world, there is the Material Plane, Faerie, the Shadowlands, and Dream.  Each has some subsections; for example, Nightmare is a part of Dream, and each person kind of creates a mini-dream demiplane when they sleep - only powerful dreamers can cross over into Dream itself.Along those lines, there are two sections to the Shadowlands; one section is ruled by the Unseelie Court, and another is used by the spirits of the dead as they try to find their way to their reward; the less virtuous the person, the longer this journey takes (kind of like Grim Fandango).Faerie and the Shadowlands also manifest in Border Realms, which kind of take the place of the Border Ethereal, and also harken back the regio of Ars Magica.  These are the places mortals are most likely to run into the Fey, good or evil.  If you know how, or have a guide, you could get from the Material Plane to Faerie or the Shadowlands without casting any spells.  Portals are not uncommon.Spells that use the Ethereal Plane typically access Shadow in my world.  Spells that use the Astral use Dream.  Psionics are Dream-related.  Demi-plane creation is also pretty common amongst the highest level wizards and such.</blockquote>
