Homage

A place to keep track of nostalgic stuff to use in the setting.

Realms

  • The Abyss
    • This existed in the universe during the Shattered Age and the Dark Age.
    • It was formed by the body of the Titan Aeon crashing into the Void Wall that separates the universe from the Void beyond.
    • Like the traditional Abyss, this Abyss was a chain of floating floating into the Void.
    • Like the traditional Abyss, this Abyss was the origin of terribly evil creatures, as part of the homage the evil produced from this Abyss are called the Tanari in Founderspeak (Demons in Enchiridian).
  • Acheron
    • There is currently no homage to the infinite battlefield.
  • Arcadia
    • The name and woodland theme of traditional Arcadia take form in the setting as the Strange realm of the Arcadians, those Fey who fled Pelithos to avoid the Dark Age.
    • The Strange realm of Arcadia is where the Arcadians (fairies) live, the Bright and Bleak Courts of Arcadian power, and the traditional "monstrosity" category of creature (chimera, manticore, et cetera).
  • Concordant Opposition
    • This roughly corresponds to a region of the Void Wall, an empty region of the Void Wall where Bastion is located.
  • Elysium
    • Elysium is only referenced in name, as the Strange realm of the Lost.
  • Gehenna
    • There is currently no homage to the flaming slopes.
  • Ysgard
    • The closest homage to Ysgard are the Realm Trees, the fountains of Spring that create the gentle rains that bring life to the Shards. The old Nor name for the Realm Tree of Acrolon was Ysgard.
  • Hades
    • The homage for Hades are the Underworlds of each Shard where dead souls go to reach the Crucible.
  • Beastlands
    • There is currently no homage to the happy hunting grounds.
  • Limbo
    • There is currently no homage to the everchanging chaos.
  • Baator
    • There is currently no homage to the nine hells.
  • Mechanus
    • There is currently no homage to nirvana.
  • Olympus
    • There is currently no homage to arboreal arvandor.
  • Pandemonium
    • There is currently no homage to howling mines.
  • Seven Heavens
    • There is currently no homage to mount celestia.
  • Carceri
    • The homage to Carceri is a realm by the same name (in Pelithine) where the Abominations were imprisoned.
  • Bytopia
    • Homage to the twin paradises exists in the form of Dragonhome and Heroe's Rest. These were where the Dragons and Immortals were comfortably imprisoned.
