The Plain of Penultimate Chaos...

Life is Irony... Change is the only thing that remains constant...

This is limbo...

This is change...


For those of you out there that don't know what limbo is, or you think that it's a game where you see "how low can you go," read on and perhaps you may learn something...

Limbo is only one of the few permanent planes. There are somewhere around 25 "true" planes. There are many others, but only the gods know how many demi-plains, para-elemental plains, and quasi-plains there are, as new ones are created and destroyed every day by gods, demons, and powerful wizards. The permanent plains are separated into two categories, the outer plains and the inner planes. The inner plains consist of the Prime Material Plain at the center, the known universe with all the stars, planets, and such. Then surrounding that are the Positive and Negative material planes. And outside of those lay the four Elemental Plains(fire, water, earth, air, y'know the drill). The inner plains are separated by a separate plain which is only considered a plain because there was nothing better to call it. It is the Etherial plain, it holds quite an array of indigenous life, most of which prey upon the ethereal projections by mages and wizards on the prime material plane. The innerplanes are encapsulled by the elemental plains, which are the only inner plains to come in contact with another inner plain. Where the elemental plains touch, they create the demi plains of lava(fire&earth), Ice(air&water), ooze(water&earth), and many other combinations, much like the combinations of the primary colors to make secondary colors, and combinations of the former and latter to make tertiary colors.

Outside of the elemental planes is another plane like the etherial plane, but this is considerably larger, called the Astral plane. There are few if any known truly indigenous Astral life forms. Astral space flows like a great liquid, forming eddies and storms that make navigation treacherous. Beings from the prime material plain that travel astrally connect their mental to the physical with a silver cable which, if cut, would forever seperate mind and body, stranding the conciousness in Astral space and lapsing the body into a terminal coma.

I will not bore you with the details of the outer plains...HERE is a copy of an interview with a fellow plains walker that I found quite good at explaining things.

But the reason I tell you these thing is because it is here, within the plane of limbo, that the being known as V'soul makes his home.

A castle with walls of raw platinum hundreds of miles high and thousands of miles long. The castle covers an area of more than one hundred million square miles of the island of land upon which it was built for V'soul by its inhabitants. Within th castle is enough wealth to make gold, platimun, silver, and a number of other "precious" metals and gems totally worthless if introduced to the economies of the prime material plane. This is a small portion of the payment V'soul has recieved for his "services." The rest of his payment came to him not in the form of physical wealth, but of favors and granted abilities. They have changed over the centuries, but not by much.
