Fun with planes! Water, Stone, Wood, Swamp?

[felinoel]

So I want to have some fun with planes and need some fun planes having to do with Water, Stone, Wood, and Swamp.

Now Water and Stone are easy, Elemental Plane of Water and Elemental Plane of Earth, Wood is slightly harder since the Elemental Plane of Wood is a bit less canon, but what would I use for Swamp? Something toxic or the like would work too...

Also if you know of any better planes to use for Water, Stone, and Wood please shout them out!


I will also accept/am looking for mild campaigns for these planes. I can come up with my own but hey if someone else has something better I want to know. :P

There's probably a Abyss level that is all swamp, does that work?

There's probably a Abyss level that is all swamp, does that work?That sounds ESPECIALLY fun.

That indeed would work. :3

Know of any campaigns for such a level?


EDIT:
Hey how dare you, you joined a year before me! :smallfurious:
:smallwink:

What do you think about a huge yggdrasil like tree, attached to a huge mountain and both around a huge lake/orb of water?

Three elemental races fight for the supremacy of the plane.

Sounds kind of cliche but it can make some nice scenery. Something like this:

I think that that would be an excellent session or five's story, have the wooded entity (that I didn't mention but is the reason why I am going with these four element-like things)'s story be here and have a new FIRE entity destroying the plane!

What would be good for Water, Stone, and Swamp?
Lava, Acid, and Dirt respectively maybe?

Paraelemental plane of ooze might serve as a swamp alternative.

What do you think about a huge yggdrasil like tree, attached to a huge mountain and both around a huge lake/orb of water?If you are unaware you pretty much described the Elemental Plane of Wood with that Yggdrasil-like tree. Except this one is more of a banyan tree that never ends and has no roots or leaves.


Paraelemental plane of ooze might serve as a swamp alternative.Ah yes of course!!!
How could I forget the paraelemental planes?!

You could go with the huge vulcano with poison and steam.

But I think that is a bad ideia. After a volcanic eruption that burns the forest to ashes the soil get more fertile.

I think a much more original ideia is a huge and civilized plane that destroy everything that is natural in order to build huge planar cities of stone and metal. All is artificial nothing is sacred.

And fire in this setting could be more related to the aspects of revolution, construction, civilization, metallurgy and evolution than destruction that is very common, dull and unoriginal. After all we owe all our comfort and technology to the discovery of fire.

I could have a plane orchestrating these attacks. The Fire being attacking the Elemental Plane of Wood, the Lava being attacking the Elemental Plane of Water, the Acid being attacking the Elemental Plane of Earth, and the Dirt (? maybe something else lol) being attacking the Paraelemental Plane of Ooze and those are just the known ones, several planes have already been destroyed all due to these guys!
lol I could have them be like the Krikkiters of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy!

They just discovered life elsewhere and decided that it needed to go because it conflicted with their understanding of the universe.

LOL it is up to you. I'm just tossing some ideas... Use it as you like.

[felinoel]

LOL it is up to you. I'm just tossing some ideas... Use it as you like.To be honest I am a BIG fan of the Vashar... wonder if I could involve them somehow...

EDIT:
Ok! Now I've trapped them in the Elemental Plane of Wood, lol they don't seem to understand that they are trapped there though nor do they realize it is a new plane.

Being on a giant tree surrounded by trees with no ground in sight didn't tip them off? Huh, wierd. Attack them with wooden dinosaurs till they figure it out :smallbiggrin:

It's a little late, but Shedaklah, the 222nd layer of the Abyss is a giant chaotic evil swamp.

I was throwing wood dogs at them but I like dinosaurs!

[Particle_Man]

You need to put Yoda into the Swamp plane, somehow. :smallsmile:

I can certainly do that. :smallbiggrin:

Wouldn't the 200ft radius sensory thing alert all wood creatures to the dinosaurs being killed?
