[QUOTE="Maitre Du Donjon, post: 981615, member: 9645"] [i]Great, just what we need, lessons in not changing history by Mr. I'm My Own Granpa[/i] Sorry, I don't know why this quotation popped in my head... As for your "situation", uh, I find it paradoxal that a) Time doesn't pass in the Astral Plane and b) You age by coming out of the Astral Plane while the Prime Material Plane hasn't changed. What it boils down to is that the Astral Plane isnt a Timeless Plane anymore, but more of a Plane where Time passes Infinitely Fast (relatively to the Prime Material Plane)... Also, your rules concerning the Astral Plane seem to open up the Can O' Worms that can reprensent Time Travel (since the way you presented it, the example you give would be correct, IMO). Anyways, unless you guys like really complicated stuff, you should perhaps change the way you play the Astral Plane... A question: What happens to creatures that are born on the Astral Plane? They never age? Maitre D [/QUOTE]
