 The power possessed by the beings native to the outer realms is called [[primal power]] because it descends directly from this existence. The power possessed by natives of the inner realms is called [[spiritual power]], which was created when the Shadow Realm came into existence. The power possessed by the beings native to the outer realms is called [[primal power]] because it descends directly from this existence.

-The Divine Realm is one of the outer realms and home to those beings who possess [[The Creation]]. These beings are generally referred to as [[bestiary:gods]], [[bestiary:angels]], [[bestiary:devas]], and other names. The primal power of this realms is the power of life, hope, community, charity, and self-sacrifice.+The Divine Realm is one of the outer realms and home to those beings who possess [[The Creation]].

-The Infernal Realms is home to those beings who possess the power of [[un-life]]. These beings are typically called [[bestiary:devils]] and [[bestiary:demons]].

 The Shadow Realms is the only inner realm and it keeps the two outer realms from ever making contact. Those who are natives of this realm are mortals who possess a spirit. Not all of these spirits can express themselves through free will, instead they are driven by their instinct and nature. Those that can express free will have the ability to bring into being spiritual power that far exceeds their own. The Shadow Realms is the only inner realm and it keeps the two outer realms from ever making contact.

 A dominion represents one small sphere of space where the Shadow Realms formed around one of the prisons of the [[Celestial Dragons]]. A dominion includes not only the Shadow Realms, but also the areas of the Divine and Infernal Realms that touch it. A dominion represents one small sphere of space where the Shadow Realms formed around one of the prisons of the [[Celestial Dragons]].

-Each dominion is comprised of many different planes. Each of these planes represents a small slice of reality within the dominion. Unless otherwise stated the plane discussed in this wiki is the [[mortal]] ​plane. This plane represents the physical plane of the dominion. It also is the strongest source of [[spiritual power]] as mortals are creatures with free will. This makes it the most heavily fought over plane by the gods, demons, and devils within this dominion.+Each dominion is comprised of many different planes.

-There are other [[Shadow Planes]] within this dominion. In effect any "other place" that connects to this world is considered a plane of this dominion. The [[Mortal Plane]], [[Fae Lands]], [[Evernight]],​ and [[Astral Plane]] are all examples of planes. A shadow plane must be fully contained with the Shadow Realms - it cannot open a doorway to any other realm.+There are other Shadow Planes within this dominion.

-[[Primal Planes]] can also serve as a bridge between the inner and outer realms. Beings with [[primal power]] will create these planes using their power and the spiritual power that they have gained from their followers. Planes like the [[Halls of Valor]], [[Elysium]],​ and [[Hel]] all bridge the inner realms with the outer. These bridge planes allow outsiders to use a measure of their power in the [[Shadow Realms]] where they connect. If an outsider is not careful they could find themselves trapped in the inner realms if their bridge plane ceases to exist.+Primal Planes can also serve as a bridge between the inner and outer realms.

-At the very pinnacle of power are beings known only as Eldar. These beings represent the most basic forces in the universe: fire, ice, hate, love, order, chaos, law, and countless others. The eldar exist beyond the understanding of even the oldest of gods, and beyond comprehension by any mortal. A single Eldar is as far above the collective power of all of the gods and devils as a single god is above the collective power of the mortals. They do not wield or control the power of the universe — they are a part of the universe.+At the very pinnacle of power are beings known only as Eldar.

-Many legends have called them titans, dragons, or even elder gods. However, they should not be confused with other elementals that can be controlled by mortals and gods. These lesser elementals are but a shadow of their more powerful forefathers and no more noticeable to their creators than any single mortal.+Many legends have called them titans, dragons, or even elder gods.
