Worlds

Haven is at the center of a soft spot between our world and others, the
known other worlds are listed below.

The Other
Also known as the realm of the Fae. This is the world from which magic
flows strongest and the one that is naturally closest to ours. It is a world
of strange forests and sweeping planes, filled with monsters, bands of
wildlings and the fabled Golden City. The Golden City is where the High Court
of the Fae normally convenes, from a distance it is incomparably beautiful,
shimmering like a golden diamond day or night. But no human who has ventured
close to it has ever returned.

The Godrealm
This is the place where the gods reside; it is also supposedly filled with
monsters and wondrous things. Few sane men cross the gateway into the realm of
the Gods without due caution, for the politics of the God Houses are fierce
and brutal, and the divine do not take kindly to unwanted intrusion.

Hell
Hell used to be a world not unlike our own, but a long time ago a vicious
war broke out between two groups of powerful sorcerers, and they turned to
fleshforming to create living weapons to send to the battlefield. Creatures
with no purpose but to kill, destroy and cause suffering. As the war
progressed these creatures became more and more deadly until the sorcerers
created creatures capable of creating even better creatures. From this
point it wasn’t long before the entire world was overrun by these living
weapons, now usually called demons. Magic users from all other planes
sealed the doors between their worlds and hell, trapping them inside. But
they are always there, and always looking for a way to cross over and carry
out their only goal, to bring death, destruction and misery.

The Void
This is a place that even the forces of Hell fear. The void is nothingness,
a huge black vacuum. Far from lifeless however, it is home to a myriad of
mammoth Cthulian nightmares that float through the darkness and wait for
millions of years in the void, always hungry. The creatures of the void
have no known disciples on earth and nobody not entirely genocidal would
ever open a door there – the entire world could be sucked through like
opening a black hole or one of the creatures could come through and set
about devouring our universe as they did their own.

The Wilds
The Wilds is a world resembling the primordial, wild Earth, as it was millions
of years ago. It is also the home of most wildlings; although there is a human
diaspora to be found in the Godrealm and the Other, the vast majority call
this untamed realm home. The Wildlings are humans who live in the Wilds,
depending on the location they vary in sophistication from spear-wielding
tribesmen to castle building kings. The Wilds is also home to amazing
earth-like creatures, both animals that exist today as well as animals that
did exist or present ones grown to a huge size. It is a place with wolves
the size of houses, mammoths and even dinosaurs.

The Elemental Planes
These are worlds that are made entirely of a particular element, this is a
water plane, a fire plane, a lightning plane and so on. The only creatures to
inhabit these inhospitable climes consist entirely from the same elements as
the planes they call home. While many such creatures are quite primitive, some
exhibit remarkable sophistication and intelligence.
