World of Alyria

Atlas

Planar Constructs

Multiple planes share the same space (if not the same dimension) as the world of Alyria - the Astral and Ethereal Planes being the nearest. Within the ethereal plane is a pocket of matter known as the "Faerie Plane", due to the large numbers of sylphs, nyads, pixies, fey, and sidhe that populate it, even though it is technically physical. Additionally, when players perish in the physical realm, their shades appear for a brief period in the Ethereal Void, itself a phantom zone between the physical and ethereal planes. Many more planes exist as well, waiting for the intrepid Adventurer to discover their secrets and power.

Cavhfail

In the alien faerie plane, Cavhfail is one of the more established, if smaller, cities of the Fey. Located northwest of Unseelie castle, Cavhfail is a small but interesting city, and the source of some of the best second-class gear: Electrum armor. The main part of the city is relatively mundane, filled with various shops, guards, and faeries.

Challenge Arena

In the all the chaos of Alyria, the Powers saw fit to dedicate a portion of their plane to the honorable art of player versus player combat. Attempting to bring each player to the height of their physical and mental capabilities, the powers manipulate the ether into a random lawful player killing maze, with each room holding a new element to complicate the battle. The powers soon bore of mindless slaughter, so your time to vanquish your opponent is limited, but in return for your entertainment, your body is restored to its full form at the close of combat.

Ethereal Void

Arguably one of the most confusing areas of all time, the Ethereal Void is a separate plane of existence, commonly accessible to non-faeries during death and living adventurers through various portals and methods of plane travel. Interestingly enough, the void is full of various vapors, representative of its intangible and often repeating sequences.

Faerie Plane

The Faerie plane is an alternate world where those of the faerie races originate. This is just the physical plane, however. On the Ethereal plane exist the nature spirits, the Faeries, and Elementals. The ethereal plane can be considered a 'shadow' of the physical plane in that they closely mimic each other. The nature spirits are very powerful, since they command the forces of the elements themselves, and cannot be bound or coerced by magical means. They have their own agendas and thus are very dangerous individuals to deal with. Divided into two groups, the Seelie and Unseelie...

Limbo Maze

While Feys and Sidhes merely wait to recharge their projected forms onto their desired plane of existence, all other races are banished to the ethereal void when their bodies fail them. Existence as a shade pops you near the cursed Archmage Mordred - but the Powers have determined an alternate path to pay penance for your deeds - navigating the Limbo maze.
