[QUOTE="Shiroiken, post: 7423635, member: 6775477"] Not something i normally think about, since it almost never comes up, even in games with planar adventures. Unless the connections are relevant for an adventure, the information needed about the planes is fairly limited (mechanical changes, description, denizens, etc.). That said, the Great Wheel (which is really a rectangle from 1E) is my default. I like the idea of switching things up for specific campaigns though, as universe building is a hobby of mine. My current idea I've floated around is that there are only three planes of existence: the Heavens (home of the gods, celestials, and redeemed souls), the Mortal Realm (material plane), and the Underworld (basically Hell, but with the Abyss underneath it).
