[QUOTE="Mac Callum, post: 1417784, member: 17035"] At one time Elysium & Arcadia were arbitrary names too. People got used to them. Now they're "standard" and the new names are arbitrary. Hmmm ... there may be a mental process at work here ... I like the orbital nature of the Planes. For those who want to do Calendar by DM fiat, that's fine. For those who want more structure I'm sure that it will be easy to put together an "astrolabe" on Excel that predicts where Planes are at the moment. Enter the day, and know the placements - all good. Do Planes become coterminus with each other? What happens when Fernia and Irian get too close? I like that Lamania has all animals & elementals - including Celestial & Demonic ones. A nice change. I'm surprised it doesn't have giants, expecially the "elemental" ones such as Fire, Stone and Storm. The Whirling Blades of Shavarath sound pretty nasty. Essentially a Blade Barrier that comes looking for you. When Shavarath is coterminous they cross into the Prime Material. Talk about your battle plans going horribly awry. It doesn't mention when Thelanis (the Faerie Court) becomes Coterminus. If I had my druthers it would always be coterminous, and to cross over you would need to create a Faerie Circle of standing stones or mushrooms, circle it three times at sunrise and speak in Sylvan. The catch is that you have no ability to tell time in Thelanis and you could return a week or a hundred years after you left. Hamburger Mary - excellent ideas, both of them! *yoink!* [/QUOTE]
