[QUOTE="DammitVictor, post: 9028845, member: 6750908"] It really depends on what I'm doing. If I'm running [B][I]Planescape[/I][/B], then I'm running the Great Wheel and the Lower Planes and the Blood War in all of their glory, and the players are going to be knee-deep in every fetid corner of them. Most of the time, though, I'm running [I]Spelljammer[/I]-inspired (no Radiant Triangle) homebrew where I'm not using the Lower Planes [I]at all[/I], combined or separate or anything in-between. Usually... with a side order of having to tell at least one player that there are no Outer Planes, this is a game about magical flying sailboats in outer space, [I]stop asking[/I] [I]me about Hell[/I]. The cosmologies in my current work-in-progress settings don't really have much in common with the Great Wheel at all. If you had to compare them to D&D cosmologies, I'd say both of them owe a debt of inspiration to the World Axis, with [I]Shroompunk[/I] taking place mostly in the Feywild with sojourns [I]through[/I] the Far Realm to reach other parts of the Feywild and [I]Sagas of the Cosmic Rangers[/I] taking place in an unbounded Prime Material Plane that is coterminous with a plane that is simultaneously the Feywild [I]and[/I] the Far Realm. Both settings have a rough conception of the Astral Sea and the Shadowfell [I]bordering[/I] and [I]mirroring[/I] the primarily game world, and numerous/innumerable Heavens and Hells that exist as a part of that [I]but are not part of the game world, stop asking me[/I] [I]about them[/I].
