[QUOTE="Shemeska, post: 3417977, member: 11697"] The Queen of Chaos/Miska and the Wind Dukes were some of the major figures on the Chaos and Law sides respectively, but you also had other beings (not always ones you might expect) on each side (or sitting the conflict out). The archomentals fell into the conflict in unconventional ways, and the para and quasielementals lords likewise tended to enter the mix along odd lines (good/evil rivalries and raw alignment-based rivalries tended to trump the overall Law v Chaos swing of the war in some cases). Outside of the Obyriths however, there wasn't much outer planes influence (that we yet know of, though Ygorl appears to have been around, and involved somehow, and hopefully future material may develop the involvement or lack thereof for the Slaadi, the Eladin who don't appear on the map till after the war when they strike at the Obyriths along the Good/Evil line, and the Ancient Baatorians who were being oblitered by the Baatezu during the whole period which would happily account for the lack of involvement by the younger LE fiends in the Inner Planes).
