Poll #207 - Next Inner Plane Focus
🕑 Added 2021-09-22 22:37:48 +0000 UTCHey everyone!
Next week, we're launching three products related to the Ethereal Plane. Then, after that, it's 3 weeks focused on Halloween content. Once that's done, I plan to return to the Inner Planes. But which one?
Below I've listed the four common Inner Planes (Air, Earth, Fire, and Water), the Positive and Negative Energy Planes, the Shadowfell, and the Feywild. For you Planescape geeks out there, don't worry—I'll eventually be doing the Quasi- and Para- elemental planes, too.
Pick which one you'd like to see me focus on and I'll create a week's worth of content surrounding one of those.
Poll ends next week.
Looking forward to the results!

I'm so tired of Feywild stuff already. Are people voting for this because it's the latest product from WOTC or because they actually want more of the same?
DM Dave
Of course. It’s called Raiders of the Silver Sea 😅
DM Dave
I’d love to do some of the more unusual planes. Guess I gotta knock out some low hanging fruit first 😅
Christian Weule
So, I feel like we’ve seen adventures in each of the elements, and the fey and the fell. NEP get love as the way to drain life and levels... I’ve never seen an adventure in the Positive Energy Plane. I’m hopeful. A Broadsword dedicated to that would be unique and citation worthy.
DM Dave
I hope to change it up a bit. NEP is pretty wild.
Please man... give me astral plane pirates!!!!

The shadow fell gets troppy or samey after awhile. The negative energy plane would need a lot of new stuff. I vote that!
DM Dave
Lol yeah. They moved a lot of stuff in 4 and 5. I love the weird 2e stuff though.
Adam Wiseman
Ah yes, D&D's ever-changing cosmology. Thanks for linking to the article on Limbo. I will certainly be using that!
Kurt Pflegl
The Shadowfell always seems like an intriguing place with interesting opportunities for PC and NPC interractions. I think it deserves more attention.
DM Dave
Also, World Tree considers both Abyss and Limbo the “bottom of the tree.”
DM Dave
Limbo in 2e was pretty similar. https://dmdave.com/the-randomness-of-limbo/
DM Dave
Ahh. I go by 2e/3e lore but mix in Shadow and Fey. That came in 4th likely to sweep the “complicated” quasi- and para- planes under the rug 😅
Adam Wiseman
In this case sort of b), except at the very center where all four elements mix. https://dumpstatadventures.com/the-gm-is-always-right/the-planes-elemental-chaos Seems like an interesting adventuring location.
DM Dave
Elemental chaos either refers to a) the outer plane Limbo or b) the borders of the inner planes, also known as the quasi and paraelemental planes.
Adam Wiseman
No Elemental Chaos?
DM Dave
lol funny you say that :) This is still top secret and in the works, but we're going to do a full adventure path in 2022 which will cover three whole BroadSwords. It will take place 15 years after the events of Hand of the Eight in Omeria.
Do you plan to do the astral plane someday?
DM Dave
Technically, it exists in the Ethereal ;)
Dale Palmitier
You know what would be a really interesting setting in the future? The Plane of Dreams. Just trying to navigate *that* no-logic landscape sounds like a challenge in itself, to say nothing of what encounters could occur.
