You've picked up on the parts of the setting I've always liked and then ran someplace amazing with them. I've been noodling around with the idea of finally running planescape (never got around to it when it was new), and your stuff has cemented it for me.

I had trouble enough tracking the requirements of the various gateway keys without gimping characters for doing what the setting was about. My take on it was based on common sense and laziness: "no, you can't fireball the Plane of Water, but at least it doesn't make your magic sword go floppy."<br /><br /><a href="http://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/Tome_of_Fiends_%283.5e_Sourcebook%29/Campaigning_on_the_Lower_Planes#High_Adventure_in_the_Lower_Planes" rel="nofollow">High Adventure in the Lower Planes</a> may be relevant to yr interests.

I am on the evil chessmen like black and white on rice.<br /><br />But myself I do like the pantheons willy nilly because I find the idea of "I am some wiseass Sigiller with a huge ruff and fleas in my codpiece and oh hell now I'm on mount olympus and it's crazy." I think the Olympus and Asgard etc realms invite you to go realllly over the top, it's not Greece or Iceland, it's crazy divine realms where you meet the revelationColehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09873430636366896071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4109303943492581322.post-35753334974719538332012-02-20T07:27:16.131-08:002012-02-20T07:27:16.131-08:00I hear you, about the symmetry, my motivations bei...I hear you, about the symmetry, my motivations being more that most of planes ain't .got shit there and it's dumb. . I'm not advocating one plane one race, so Acheron would still have warring factions and little tinpot empires of hobgoblins and what have you. The archons/sinister chest pieces would be thrown in there too. <br />Each plane should have distinctive personality and angle to it, and I reckon trying come up with a unique denizens for each really helps sharpen what the plane is about. Acheron was already pretty interesting though, but sometimes more is morescrap princesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01278801560026111482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4109303943492581322.post-88825601037290510542012-02-20T03:53:05.386-08:002012-02-20T03:53:05.386-08:00I love your slaadi and already replaced the old on...I love your slaadi and already replaced the old ones, which I never liked, but I'm not all that shit-hot on symmetry. Something about every plane having its special archetype race just seems, I don't know, somehow too tame? Acheron being a whole bunch of warring factions and little tinpot empires seems like more fun adventuring to me than evil chessmen. But, each to their own.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07090296806321882601noreply@blogger.com
