[QUOTE="Kobold Avenger, post: 9438782, member: 779"] Some of 2e's Guide to the Ethereal Plane was about Dreamscapes, they devoted a bunch of pages to a Dreamscape called Anavaree which was centered around this adult woman in a stasis pod of a crashed spaceship, who was dreaming of this fantasy world as a little girl. The Astral Plane has shifted to be more about thoughts in 3e and beyond. I think there was also a thing where there were "levels of reality" that ended up in one of the Planescape modules, Doors to the Unknown. It was apparently from the Mystara campaign setting, and dreams and dreamscapes were a lower level of reality. And the villain of the module was a being called a Mercurial from Hyper-Reality which was of a higher level than standard reality. That whole thing was promptly ignored everywhere else and never referenced again. 3e did have the Region of Dreams as part of an alternative cosmology. But only Eberron has an established Dream Plane, with it being Dal Quor from which the Quori and Kalashtar are connected to. And somewhere I remember when referenced by the designers back in 2014, that Feywild was sort of the In Between of the Positive Energy Plane and Material Plane, while Shadowfell was the In Between of the Negative Energy Plane and Material Plane. But I don't think they explicitly said that Feywild and Shadowfell were such a thing in any of the published 5e books. [/QUOTE]
