Where do neutral characters go when they die?

[Darkmantle26]

From my understanding of the D&D afterlife (I think this was from planescape) When someone dies they are sent either to the plane on which their god resides or the plane corresponding to their alignment, but while leafing through the 5e DMG I saw no plane corresponded to the Neutral alignment, so where would a neutral character go? If they favored no god, would Kelemvor charge them with guiding other souls? I have a player in my current game who is neutral and claimed his character does not believe in the gods, and I like the idea of him being cast into the dust as a larva or put in the wall of the faithless.

IMO, a neutral character who doesn't believe in the gods would not go anywhere. They would simply die.

They are sent to the plane of Concordant Opposition where mind-wiped modrons shred the souls to make feminine hygiene products for the Lady of Pain.

Planescape wise they'd end up as petitioners in the Outlands.

The DMG mentions the Outlands as the plane of Neutrality. N souls would go there. I suppose it is an okay afterlife unless you wander too close to the gate towns of the Lower Planes.....

Their souls are weighed in the balance of the jackal-headed god and ... well, that's it, really. The don't go anywhere.

They become one with the Force.

This is something that really depends on the setting that you're playing in. Planescape is different to Forgotten Realms is different to Eberron etc.

In FR, what sort of character doesn't pick some patron god, if only to avoid the WotF? What sort of loon actively denies the gods' very existence, what with them romping about Faerun every decade or so?

I'm curious, both about the OP's player's character, and about others.
