| Sanity? What "sanity"? The Void is an endless expanse of nothing that is full of everything. You must pass through the Void to reach Hell, Heaven or Earth. Apart from the Voidkin who are native to this plane, it is entirely filled with creatures created by the nightmares of those who pass through the Void. The "sky" is dark crimson mixed with swirls of black, but everything else seems to lack any color at all. Not white, not black, just...empty.

| In the dead center of the massive, flat expanse of the 1 story building that Hell has become, a tower stands 616 stories high, made of obsidian and black and red glass. This tower is home to the main power generator, all of the drug production factories, the testing laboratories and basically everything that isn't a pod. And at the very top of it all is a large room, decked out with the best technology available and various comfy chairs, is Maxwell's control room, where he controls Hell. Every. Single. Inch. Of Hell.

| Below Maxwell's Tower is 616 subterranean floors, almost a mirror image. But instead of having various purposes, this is just a continuous downward spiral staircase with several floors of factory along the way. Some factories are for drugs, some for spare parts, some are less factory and more "incinerator room". Either way, it would be a terrible, terrible thing to get lost here. The workers are bitter and there are millions of them down there, everything is spiky and seems to want to harm you and worst of all between the machines and the thick canopy of wires above you you can't even see the staircase to get out...

| Same as the other wings, but lately something has been horribly wrong. The Pods keep popping open at random, unpredictable times and unleashing very bitter, very mutated creatures into Hell. The Pods send a signal to Maxwell's Tower saying they've opened and which number they are, when it opened etc. But in the Western Wing the signals only say that a Pod is open or when it did so...It's dangerous to go anywhere alone until this can be fixed, and it's best to avoid the Western Wing entirely.

| At the end of each directional Wing there is a staircase going down. These staircases lead to the lower Circles of Hell, all of which are simply row upon row upon row upon row of circularly arranged Pods. The lower you go the higher the risk level.

 | Satan had himself a nice little office, an entirely new circle of Hell where he could live like a King...And now the massive vault door has been mysteriously sealed shut. It seems that this door can't be opened ever again. Maxwell generally doesn't talk about this subject, although everyone is pretty sure that it is NOT, in fact, "just the wind" when they hear a weak, croaking voice cursing vehemently and threatening to "kill your ass dead when I break this door down".

It didn't used to be a giant prison where the recently deceased wake up screaming in horror, but there's no reason to dwell on what was. You will be promptly escorted to a less cramped space until you can afford to leave. During your stay, the Blues will take your information. Continuously. Until either it runs out or you get lost. Perhaps housing yourself should come first.

These trains may or may not take you to your desired destination, depending on their mood and how recently they've been fed, and whether or not the weather is especially nice in the Skitter (it usually isn't, but there's no accounting for the taste of the trains...). Also a hub for spectacular events, impromptu dance parties, and frequent shootouts between parties both affiliated and rogue.

Lantern light, the sweet smell of perfumes and foreign foods, the whisper of music on a wind that really seems impossible in a subterranean setting, but whatever...All valuable commodities not necessarily present in the city above. There's nothing quite like the sweet din and warm glow of artificial ethnicity. Perhaps that's why they chose to sink it below the main city and charge admission.

Come one, come all, to the greatest shows in the underworld! Our non-stop carnival will leave you dazed and amazed as you stumble out, clutching your chest where you could swear there was, once upon a time, a real heart! But that hollow feeling will go away when you come back. If you lose your soul on the midway, there's always next time. Just bring enough cash and trade-able goods to keep playing until you win!

These sewers were built around the river Styx, trapping the stench of corpses and death safely beneath the city itself. The cistern is home to the Skitter (capital city of the rats) and anyone who can't afford decent housing just holes up in the thousands of "dens" along the river's reeking banks. It is by no means a pleasant place to be, even with all the ancient, impossible, ornate, and stunning lamps and lanterns lighting the way.

Broadway is the best theater, period. Not because it has the best performers - oh no, most of them are atrociously bad - but because it has the best shows. Pick your poison and make yourself comfortable. Prepare for an all-senses engaged surprise performance. It's showtime.

This tower stretches far, far above and sinks it's roots far, far below. The walls are lined with books - thick, dusty tomes and thin, staple-together rough drafts. Every word ever written, even random assortments of letters thrown together, every alphabet ever made, fictional or not - it all finds a home in the shelves of the Archive. Many of these tomes are blank, not yet filled out. Words and phrases to be written soon. Or maybe far, far off. Or maybe a long time ago. Time is funny like that.

It's funny how we rarely question why something is called what it is. Pandora's Box is named so because it contains things that should never, ever have been. But here it is and here they are. Some say it's quite pleasant inside. Most prefer the rush of fresh air and moonlight that greets them when the find their door into Betwixt.

A recently collapsed citadel, already drowning in flora and fauna reclaiming their land. The corpse of a Colossus kneels in the center of the wreckage, frozen as if it had been turned to stone, face looking skyward with an expression of pure terror. Nobody can quite remember what it was supposed to be, but the rotting corpses of Knights and Guardsmen suggest something.

| Break through the Looking Glass and you will find an eternal fall. Suspended in the air are impossible cities, sprawled out like spider webs and inhabited by the Glassborn and the Glassborn only. There are several layers of the Fall, starting with "The Top" and fading into the "Eternal White" where one can fall forever and ever and never land at all. If you intend on visiting the Fall you better grow some wings or learn how to fly without them because there is very little to hang on to and if you don't float, you fall and die.

| Entirely made of metal, even creatures. Possibility of a planet. Considered one of the most dangerous planes yet rich in resources by inter-realm travellers. Has two basic levels: The Surface (all of the different biomes you can think of except everything is made of metal, there are villages, sentient creatures are humanoid but metal) and The Lower Hollows (they used to be full of a huge civilization of sphinx-like non-humanoid super intelligent creatures with servants called the Hollowed who are mainly different because they have a fragment of a Astral Steel inside of them). Having Astral Steel in your body is destructive towards your humanity so the Hollowed are feared by the Surface People. The two societies are basically cut off from one another.

| The world of extremes. Extreme heat, extreme cold, extreme power...Things are intense. It is split into three basic ares: The Tangle (An extremely dense jungle area that becomes seemingly impossible the further in you go), The Burn (Lava, fire and endless wars. Nobody really knows what or who they're fighting for), and The Silence (It is what appears to be a very large, endless stretch of ocean. There are no animals near or above the surface. It is extremely eerie...Nothing can prepare you for it)

| Named by someone who could walk between planes. The planet's layout looks like a Locus in a sense. It has one central circular globe which is the actual planet with petal-like space stations that come off of the central planet. The Locus is one of the most technologically advanced worlds but is void of magic. It used to have a wealth of magic but something happened involving Zix and boom no magic. The air is too polluted to breathe and everyone is required to wear gas masks unless they have evolved to breathe the toxins in the air.
| 0 | 0 | |
| It has magic, but not as much as Zix or The Hollows. The popultion is "human". It is like Earth but something has sort of...shifted.
| 0 | 0 | |
| The most important thing to know is that it works a little differently physically then other realms. Death doesn't really...work. Your organs can die, your heart can stop...But your parts will reform into a new creature. Death is the step between the next evolution. You can potentially kill somebody and make them into something else. You can take a dog that has a broken leg, kill it and make it into a normal dog. It won't retain the memories or anything...but it's fixed. Only about 20% of the planet is actually livable. The rest are swamps that dissolve you. You become more swamp if the swamp. 80% of the planet is a living organism that eats things. The livable 20% is sectioned off by an extremely large wall. They don't exactly have magic but because of the way systems have evolved memory and intelligence are barterable. You have to store your memories in an empty body until you can transfer them to your new body. The only "safe" place is the royal castle. It is a regular castle, but there are guards that prevent attacks quite well. They will kill you. And turn you into a worm. Many worms.

| Technically just "Clarity", but it's a mega-city. Imagine you had a planet and you had the ability to grow skyscrapers out of a half-inch diamond. You can terraform anything, everything and whatever. Things aren't mesaured as much in volume. You could have a ton of things that are uber valuable elsewhere. But in Clarity they are rather plain. The most important thing is their attempt to learn everything. The more knowledge you have, the higher you rate in society. It's a wellspring of knowledge, except for one little problem...Despite the best efforts of everyone involved, Clarity is disappearing. As fast as they build, the city disappears. You don't live to be all that old in Clarity...You could have a birthday and suddenly you're not there. Clarity is a world of aristocratic people who are freaking out on the inside. Its civilians aren't human.

| Vex and Zix used to be one plane. Then something happened, and nobody really knows what...Except for a few people who shall remain unnamed. In the same way that Zix is full of energy, Vex is like that with time. Time is controllable to a certain degree. The result of this being that a fair amount of the population is able to fade out of time and appear in a more convenient time. Nobody actually knows where they are going, time streams get crossed, and you may be standing on a building and say "what was this like a 1000 years ago?" and when you get there, no building. Time is very scattered here. Time itself has started messing with people. Even if you don't time travel, you may find yourself in a different portion of time for no apparent reason. Having been severed from Zix, there are still parrallel areas on Vex. There is an area that used to be like The Tangle, but instead of jungle there is just city made of discarded items. Everything dropped/discarded is teleported there. The parallel of the Burn is a flat obsidian wasteland with occasional villages. It's the Burn without the chaos...Stagnant atermath. Animals there feed off of the rock and you can hunt them...it is generally just a shitty place to live. The parallel of the Silence...is a city in the middle of the ocean. It's not silent anymore.

| The common realm. The Looking Glass is the Nexus in which basically every plane can access. Every plane has a gate to The Looking Glass. The Locus has built over these gates, the Ether has trouble passing through them. The Looking Glass is a seemingly flat land made of mirror. A lot of the gates lead to the Grand Market where you can sell anything, ever, period. Occasionally there are problems with bringing things back to a realm where they don't belong. To go anywhere or build anything you just need to think it and decide to do it. It can be dangerous depending on thought strength. In the Looking Glass you are only as powerful as your thoughts. Some people are weak elsewhere and godlike here and vice versa. PS: Don't fuck with the Sphinxes.

| The east half of the city, where triad has set up a large base of operations. This is some high tech stuff, and most of the buildings in the zone have been surrounded by a twenty foot tall reinforced wall with heavily guarded gates allowing entrance to those with the correct clearance. In the middle of this zone is the actual Base M, the main hub for triad in the Philadelphia area, surrounding it are military complexes, converted from office buildings, and on the far side, a large refugee camp.

Still, if you want to get into contact with them, this is where to do it. The people living in Harrisburg are generally happy, and well protected, but they take great care not to even seem like they might be congregating with the marked...that would not end well.
