By Word of Keith Baker, we know that immortal Outsiders like Archons, Angels, Succubi, Pit Fiends, Mariliths...etc., can't breed, are reborn as a lesser form of their species when they are killed (for example, Archons would be reborn as Lantern Archons) and another Outsider of lesser rank would be promoted to fill the vacancy in the hierarchy left by its death... Also, they can't gain xp and use it to gain HD or class levels, they can become more powerful only by promotion...
But, what about those "mortal" Outsiders who can breed, die of old age and gain xp and class levels, like Eladrin, Jann and Formians? What happens when they die? Do their souls get to reincarnate as young menbers of their species? Or do they go to Dolurrth?
What about non-Outsiders native to the Planes, like Fey from Thelanis or Axiomatic creatures from Daanvi? Do they go to Dolurrth? The Planes always looked very self-contained and disconnected from each other to me... It would feel weird to have any of their native inhabitants shackled to a different plane after they die...
By the way, in game stats, what do the souls assimilated by Dolurrth become? Shades? Shadows? Ghosts? Spectres? Wraiths? And before they are assimilated, what are they? Ghosts?
