Plane

From NexusWiki

The term plane refers to one of several planes of existence - areas of physical space which comprise the greater Nexus. A single plane may be aligned or neutral by its very nature.

Characters may travel between the different planes through the use of Portals. Transferring between planes nearly always incurs a cost in Magic Points (though there exist some powers, such as Stepping of the World Gate, that offset this cost).

If a plane is aligned, characters who are considered non-native will suffer damage as they move through it. If a plane is non-aligned, movement does not cause pain or damage.

[edit] Known Planes

There are four planes that are open to exploration by players. They are:

• Valhalla, the "prime" plane, upon which exists the Saint Germaine Islands (the Sewers are considered part of Valhalla). Valhalla is unaligned.
• Stygia, the evil plane, home to demonkind. Stygia is a land of frozen wastes, punctuated by deep fire pits.
• Paradise, the good plane, home to angelkind. Paradise is an arboreal world, filled with grasslands and forests.
• Purgatorio, an endless void of nothingness in which swirl hundreds of rock "islands". Purgatorio is unaligned.
• Nifleheim, the Land of the Dead - a vast, dusty, dry realm afloat in the Void.
• The Stygian Warrens, a cramped, dark, cavernous realm beneath Stygia.
• The Nimbus, the holiest of holy places, located among the clouds above Paradise.
