The Plane of Abiding is the plane that contains Elanthia, its moons, the sun, and the other planets that make up our celestial system as well as all of the denizens thereof[1]. The limits of the plane of abiding, beyond the known celestial system, are unknown. Of all the known planes, it is composed of the greatest variety of substances and energies, ranging from stone and air to spiritual eand psychic energy to invisible aether serving as both the foundation of the plane and the later in which mana itself exists[2][3]. The plane of abiding was crated by the one and his wife, the void, but was shaped and populated by the Thirteen Immortals who originally inhabited the Plane of Abiding but have long since relocated to the Spiritual Plane[4].

Cosmology of the Plane of Abiding

Many scholars believe that The Plane of Abiding is situated at a crossroads between planes[5], although even they debate whether or not it is unique in this regard. True or not, the fact remains that many other planes exist near or even overlap the Plane of Abiding within the Planar Void, including the Elemental Planes, the Astral Plane, the Plane of Probability and the Spiritual Plane. The close contact with these planes allows the seepage of psychic or spiritual energy, mana, physical laws and, occasionally, matter itself across the Planar Void[6][7]. Locations such as Zaulfung Stones, the Suur Pillar and the strata beneath Taisgath all serve as extreme examples of such influences. The actions of Clerics, Moon Mages and Warrior Mages frequently cause the Plane of Abiding to be exposed to such influences and, ultimately, slowly weaken the distinction between the Plane of Abiding and its adjacent planes[8]. The most impressive example of such a event occurred when the necromancer Lyras created an exceptionally large breach in the planar barrier that corrupted all existence in the Plane of Abiding and resulted in measurable changes in the laws of magic[9][10].
