Paradise

From NexusWiki

Paradise is the formal name for the plane of existence populated by all things good. It is the home plane for Angelic character classes (Paladins, Shepherds, Advocates, Lightspeakers, Seraphs, and Divine Champions).

Movement in Paradise will cause damage to many characters. However, characters who have ascended are unaffected. Further, characters protected by a form of Planar Protection will be unaffected, as will those belonging to a faction whose stronghold is in Paradise.

[edit] Accessing Paradise

Entrance to Paradise is achieved through the use of a portal.

One such portal is located inside of First Ridleyton Church (17,6) in Northcamp, another is located within St. Michael's Cathedral (18,43) in Southton, and a third is located inside the Iglesia del San Sebastián (42,67) on Poco Maquez. They take the form of a monolith. The player can choose to touch the monolith, which will transport them into Paradise. A corresponding portal composed of swirling colours can be found at this location in Paradise which allows access back to the mortal realm.

[edit] Features in Paradise

The primary terrain types of Paradise are Idyllic Grassland, Forest, and Ruins. There is a single lake and the River Alph cuts the plane through the middle.

For information on the various building types, see Locations in Paradise.

[edit] The Portals

For an up-to-date list of all portals in and out of Paradise, please refer to the Portal page.

[edit] The Silent Battlefield

There are several highly detailed stone statues here, each one depicting an angel or demon. They are arranged as if in battle. The detail is amazing.

The Silent Battlefield (4,4) is the location of a bizarre statue "garden":

[edit] The Vaults of Enlightenment

The bookshelves in this place are constructed of well-polished and cared-for wood. They radiate outwards from a central point. There is a mezzanine, and it is filled with large oak tables and chairs.

There is a large velvet tapestry hanging here. It depicts a large angelic choir doing battle with an unknown and terrible looking creature with six limbs in a hellish landscape.

The Vaults of Enlightenment [(22,27),(22,28),(23,27),(23,28)] and [(19,14) (20,14)] contain a trove of angelic artifacts and tomes as well as picturesque scenery and stunning artwork. They are frequented by scholars from all walks of life searching for divine knowledge or items of angelic nature.

Beware though, the large numbers of angels and divine beings around the the Vaults make the locations prime hunting grounds for marauding Demons or other Evil creatures. These are usually dealt with quickly by patrolling Angels, but few go down without taking at least 2 or 3 unlucky souls with them.

[edit] The Seven Towers

The Seven Towers are a formation of Ivory Towers located in the South of the plane. They represent the seven pillars of Paradise virtue.

• The Tower of Truth (3,29)
• The Tower of Courage (5,29)
• The Tower of Justice (2,31)
• The Tower of Law (4,31)
• The Tower of Trust (6,31)
• The Tower of Faith (3,33)
• The Tower of Love (5,33)
