-====== Celestial Planes ======
-Part of the massive power that comes with godhood is the ability to manifest a Celestial Plane. Not only are these planes homes for the gods, they also act as afterlives for these gods' devotees and take a wide variety of forms. Some gods share a celestial plane, while others may manifest multiple. Only the fourteen gods of the Jaernian and Cahyalic pantheon are known to hold celestial planes. Travel in and out of celestial planes is incredibly difficult, with express permission usually being required from their master god for each trip. Something entering or encroaching on one of these planes without the god's permission is a noteworthy, usually terrifying affair. Some gods have no planes. These include At'ena and Orus - though some circles suspect [[settings:dreaming|the Dreaming]] to in fact be Orus' celestial plane, old beyond belief.
-Details on each that are known follow:
-==== The Infero ====
-Described as a massive, gently-sloping mountain with perpetually gray skies and dark rivers, the Infero is Anubis' world. Uniquely among the Celestial Planes, Anubis operates this world as a sort of catch-all pit stop; nearly every mortal soul arrives at the Infero after death, collected and guided by Anubian celestial beings. The only exception to this is Jaernian nomads, who go to the Kurago after death. From the Infero, souls may be judged and sent to an afterlife, or given the choice to visit their desired one. Some also choose to reincarnate onto the Material Plane. Few have returned from the Infero. Perhaps out of respect, or perhaps out of fear, we have no records of adventurers visiting this plane.
-==== Meadows of Vitania ====
-Created by Isis, this heavenly realm is the home of not only Isisite priests, but any mortal soul judged by Anubis to be pure of heart. Full of vast open fields of wildflowers and dotted with cozy buildings and small towns, Isis has ensured that her home is also a welcoming home for good people and planar travelers. Though express permission from Isis herself is still required to enter and exit Vitania, she is more than likely to grant passage to most. This has caused some problems in the past, allegedly, but Vitania is quick to rebuild after any missteps.
-==== Worlds of Osiris ====
-Unique amongst the gods, Osiris has manifested no less than three separate celestial planes, each with a specific purpose. She strictly forbids travel in and out of them, with those who visit staying forever, barring the incredibly rare extenuating circumstance.
-  * //Elysium// is an Osirian afterlife, where the spirits of Osiris' priests gather beneath her great tree.
-  * The //Beastlands// are the destination of sentient animals, whether they are naturally sentient or awakened.
-  * //Arcadia// is the home of the souls of sentient plants, and takes the form of a pristine, untouched wilderness.
