In this guide, we will introduce you to the key elements, concepts, and characters that form the backbone of our story.
The Multiverse
The first thing to understand about our universe is that it exists not as a single, unified entity, but rather as a vast multiverse. This intricate network of interconnected planes and dimensions is home to countless civilizations, each with its unique culture, history, and inhabitants. Some of these realms are governed by the natural laws of their respective planes, while others exist outside the confines of the multiverse entirely.
Planes of Existence
The planes of existence are the primary building blocks of our multiverse. There are countless planes, each with its distinct properties and inhabitants. Some of the most notable ones include:
- The Material Plane: Home to most living beings, this is the plane of solid matter and tangible reality. It is divided into continents, oceans, and numerous other landforms.
- The Elemental Planes: These planes are composed entirely of one or more elements, such as fire, water, air, and earth.
- The Feywild: A realm of magic, beauty, and chaos, governed by the whimsical fae.
- The Shadowfell: A dark, twisting mirror of the Material Plane, where creatures of darkness dwell.
In our guide, we will delve deeper into each of these planes and the unique beings that inhabit them. Stay tuned for more information as we continue to explore The First Descendant.
