Rhyme of the Planes
(A children’s verse)
Affril: Plane of Knowledge
An interplanar world of purplestone archways surrounded by the gray sea where the Klynoks and Giant Bats hail. Affril is covered by a massive gray sea with pockets of huge purplestone arches and the origin of purplestone. It is also the home of the Klynoks and Grayfolk. Night sky features two red moons.
Flavor Text from Cartographers Heroes Map Pack 2:
“When a rift opened and strange creatures rode through on their bat-like steeds, you knew you’d only have one chance to map this plane. You leapt through, finding yourself standing on a network of purplestone archways, rising from a vast, gray sea. Now, you pull out your level and compass and begin what surely is the greatest challenge of your career as a royal cartographer.”
As the chest pops open, the earth quakes and the sky crackles with strange purple energy. For a moment, you hear the screech of bats, and you smell a briny sea. - Battle at Blacklake (RPA-ADV1)
Hoshek: Plane of Life
Wild growth surrounds you everywhere, and several layers of surging moss and grasses shift under your feet. A brilliant sun shines over the world, filling you with vitality. - Eye of Ulos (RPA-ADV4)
Iktel: Plane of Frost
Harsh, frigid environment. Temperatures are so consistently below freezing that water in its liquid form is a foreign concept. Home to the ice wyrm and to a strange “orange-skinned creature… with several roaming eyestalks” who can only survive in the cold (RPA ADV-6).
Keetoth: Plane of Crystal
Mikto: Plane of Secrets
A plane containing, among other things, a collection of mysterious objects. The glass cases are defended by strange spheres that flash with multicolored light.
Description from Roll Player Adventures - Gate at Brizoor Waal:
The light reveals a vast room filled with glass cases of various sizes, each containing a unique specimen. The cases nearest to you contain books and papers. A few aisles away, you can see cases of weapons and, beyond that, wild beasts who appear to be frozen in some form of stasis.
Moti: Plane of Death
Unless they are prevented from doing so, spirits from Ulos travel to Moti after their mortal bodies expire. Home to the Ghost-Eaters and other servants of death.
Description from Roll Player Adventures - Ghost-Eaters of the Forgotten Forest:
“And now, suddenly, a rift to Moti opens right here? Death’s own servants have come to collect these wayward spirits. What can it mean?” - Zerith
Nebblis: Plane of Flame
Favor Text from Cartographers Heroes Map Pack 1:
“It’s rumored that the forges of the ancient dwarves were connected magically to the great volcano Astmork. As a royal cartographer, you were eager to see it for yourself. Now, you stand before a mountain that belches flame into the smoke-black sky of another world. This map could be the key to great fame and glory, if you can avoid the rivers of molten rock long enough to complete it.”
