Håvard’s Dimensions

This is as top-level as you get in terms of maps of Mystara, showing the Multiverse in terms of Wrath of the Immortals dimensions. In this cosmology, Mystara’s Multiverse is but one of any number of alternate realities. Håvard lined it up with AD&D’s Great Wheel, the Dimension of Myth (Laterre’s dimension), the Nightmare Dimension (home of the Diaboli) and the mysterious Vortex Dimension. This last one blocks access to the theoretical Realms of the Old Ones — beyond the scope of this diagram, and indeed the game as a whole.

Wrath’s definition of dimensions is different from that of the Immortals Set, whose dimensions are of the Euclidean variety (2D, 3D, etc.). The concepts are not necessarily mutually exclusive, though a name change of one or the other would be necessary in order to reconcile them. As Håvard notes in his thread at The Piazza, this would also require the removal of the Nightmare and Vortex Dimensions from this diagram, as they would instead be Euclidean dimensions.
