Message: <blockquote data-quote="VelvetViolet" data-source="post: 6190689" data-attributes="member: 6686357">Annoyed at the fact that the official D&D cosmology is closed content, I wanted to create my own great wheel for publishers to play around with. But I wanted to ask for suggestions on how to detail the various planes. The Pathfinder outer planes are OGC, as are the planes in Classic Play: Book of Planes, so both those sources will be used.Right now I've got the basic geometry of the great wheel done:[ATTACH]59107[/ATTACH]There are 25 planes for every alignment: the standard nine as well as the neutral alignments with one or more tendencies. This model helps to differentiate it from the traditional great wheel.Now, I'm going for a Gygaxian feel, so what planes should I fill these spaces out with?Note that there are not a fixed number of outer planes, so there may be more than one plane for each alignment. These may be considered layers of the same plane for game mechanics, but a given layer can be dramatically different from another layer to the point of seeming like a different plane with the same alignment. For example, the Lawful Evil plane includes both Dante's Nine Hells and the Chinese's Ten Courts of Hell.</blockquote>
