Håvard’s Inner Planes v1

Håvard created four different variant diagrams of the Inner Planes. Each has a slightly different configuration, although the basics — the Prime Plane along with the four Elemental Planes, surrounded by the Ethereal, itself surrounded by the Astral Plane — remain the same in all of them.

This was the first version. There are a few main points of note: the conflation of GAZ12’s Spirit World with the Ethereal Plane, and the addition of two new Inner Planes, the Dreamlands and Limbo. All of these are somewhat controversial, as they are rather ambiguous in official sources.

As we have come to expect from Håvard’s cosmological maps, there are also numerous smaller references noted here, drawing from a variety of sources.
