One of them is a "decoy timeline", a demiplane created to trick time-travelers and to avoid time-paradoxes. Other idea is the "akasha realm", a demiplane created by the collective memory. This can be interesting for investigation, but they aren't useful to discover hidden and unknown secrets, for example about illegal cults. Sometimes these "reality bubles" can be assimilated/absorverd within the dream (or nightmare) plane. An example of this place would be the "dream-realm" visited by Tanis the half-elf in the novel "Tanis: the shadow years".If I am not wrong the D&D deities can know some possible future events. From the SRD:<h4>Portfolio Sense</h4>Demigods have a limited ability to sense events involving their portfolios. They automatically sense any event that involves one thousand or more people. The ability is limited to the present. Lesser deities automatically sense any event that involves their portfolios and affects five hundred or more people. Intermediate deities automatically sense any event that involves their portfolios, regardless of the number of people involved. In addition, their senses extend one week into the past for every divine rank they have. Greater deities automatically sense any event that involves their portfolios, regardless of the number of people involved. In addition, their senses extend one week into the past and one week into the future for every divine rank they have. When a deity senses an event, it merely knows that the event is occurring and where it is. The deity receives no sensory information about the event. Once a deity notices an event, it can use its <a href="https://www.d20srd.org/srd/divine/divineRanksAndPowers.htm#remoteSensing" target="_blank">remote sensing</a> power to perceive the event.This means if some crononaut or timetraveler from the future arrived to the past to change some detail, then the deities could know it automatically, and to choose the distpach of agents to help or to stop them.* Fan-fiction about alternate timelines in DMGuild could be freak or awesome.* There is a cat within a box, then Schöringer with a gun travels from the future toward the past, and he shoots to the box with the cat within. Is the cat alive or dead?---<a href="https://www.enworld.org/threads/primalshard-other-echo-plane.692775/" target="_blank">In other post I published a bizarre idea.</a> The Timeghyll, a mixture of time-loop, purgatory, backroom and "hollow earth" (style Julio Verne's title and Mystara's spin-off).If the time is a river then the uchronic demiplanes are the "aqueduct" and the timeghylls are like ravines created by diverted and later returned a river. When the History or the timeline is rewritten (but later corrected) by time-traveler and chronomancers... a "trace" or imprint remains in the space-time continium. In the beginning they seems "dreamlands" what later merger with the Feywild as domains or special regions. Some time-dragons and chronomancers use the timeghylls as "raw material" to build (uchronic) demiplanes. Maybe the main clue to recognize a timeghyll is because they are totally dessert, like a city evacuated hours ago, or the population behove like nPCs of a old videogame (really bad social interactions). But there are some native with soul, people who would be born only with the alteration of the timeline (because their parents married other people and things like this). Also feys like to visit, explore and live here.Some timeghylls are rebuilt by great powers to punish or hold/contain certain sinners or menaces. For example there is a timeghyll where the kingpriest of Istar is the supreme deity, but the world suffers a planar invasion of elementals, constructs and plant monsters, with the irony the sacred champions were too specialiced to fight undead and infernal outsiders. In other timeghyll lord Soth is allowed to be with his wife and son, but with a trick. Sometimes these are replaced by his first wife and son (a half-orc), or the shape, or the soul, or both. Both children, the half-orc and the half-elf, hate each other.</blockquote>
