### The Dreamlands

_The Plane of Imagination_

-   A constantly shifting collection of inter-connected demiplanes with fluid realities.
-   Powerful psychics from the material planes can occasionally open portals to one of these demiplanes.

### The Ethereal

_The Plane of the Dead_

-   Exists alongside other planes, appearing as a muted reflection of the local plane.
-   Spirits of the dead can travel in it, as can certain agents of the divine powers.

### The Faewolde

_The Plane of Faerie_

-   The whole plane is infused with a wild, primal magic.
-   Depending on the season (and time of day), ruled by either the Day Queen and her Seelie Court, or the Night King and his Unseelie Court.
-   Most consists of a great forest, surrounded by numerous smaller domains called the Mirthlands, controlled by the various Archfae.
-   Portals to the Faewolde occasionally manifest in the material planes at locations of great, natural power (often in the most ancient forests).
