Interplanar lore
Interplanar lore and order
The first plane that was, and its creation unknown and by far the largest and most varied of all realms is the MATERIAL PLANE.
After the Apoch war the Durun created the "DURUN NEEDLE", a completely seperate and selfsustaining plane, meant to hold and imprison the souls of the Zurda.
Due to the inseperable conection between the Zurda and the MATERIAL PLANE their beings are split between the two planes, each soul forming a star in the material plane.
Although the conscious parts of the Zurda was imprisoned, this unintentionally allowed the subconscious of the Zurda to run rampant, out of which where born the first Gods, as well as some other primeval beings.
After a while these beings also explored the possibility of plane creation, however even until today nobody managed to imitate the expertise of the Durun creation. Instead the new methods used an already existing as a basis for their own creations, the first of the planes created this way where the SHADOWFELL and the FEY WILDS (as the energies in the MATERIAL PLANE are stronger then those within the DURUN NEEDLE)
Notably both the FEY WILDS and the SHADOWFELL where created of an opposite energy, in a sence the two realms are in balance with one another, if one grows, the other shrinks etc.
These creations caused a mass of primeval beings to move to the MATERIAL PLANE, and would cause a war sending it into chaos for multiple milenia, knwon as the primeval war. After this war, the material plane was littered with the restless spirits of the creatures from the shadowfell and the feywilds used during the wars. It was then that Kali and Espir, two gods who where on opposite sides during the war, as well as a god born amidst the primal war: Rurashi, worked together to create the plane of the plane of ASPHODEL, and its sister plane MEMORIUM (The only way to return from ASPHODEL is by going through MEMORIUM, where one leaves behind some if not all of their memories). These planes where designed to grow evermore, and to give the souls of mortals the space and peace to rest.
Eventually the war carried over also to the DURUN NEEDLE where, out of neccesity, more planes where created, as some forms of energy where easier to manipulate in this realm, specifically energies related to good or bad (Depending on where in the DURUN NEEDLE you are).
This would bein the age of seperation, where the 7 LOWER PLANES (ACHERON, THE NINE HELLS, GEHENNA, HADES, CARCERI, THE ABYSS, PANDEMONIUM) and the 7 UPPER PLANES (ARCADIA, MOUNT CELESTIAL, BYTOPIA, ELYSIUM, THE BEASTLANDS, ARBOREA, YSGARD) where created.
Since then no major planes where created except for four. One is the only plane created by a mortal. The mortal used a different technique then that so far, linking his spell to material substance rather than an energy. Using this method he created the ELEMENTAL PLANES.
This lead to Gods then creating MECHANUS and LIMBO, as not to be outdone by the mortals they created. Lastly DEUBAN was created, a realm that is intimately connected to the DURUN NEEDLE, to a degree that some argue they could not be considered different realms at all. This realm has the purpous of holding Neow, and any who might become allies of him in the future.
