The DM's Travel Bookclub: 6. Positive & Negative Energy Planes!

The hosts of The DM's Book Club proudly bring you a new limited series, The DM's Travel Bookclub: A Guide to The Inner Planes!

In each episode, we'll explore the Inner Planes of Existence as outlined in the Great Wheel cosmology in the roleplaying game, Dungeons & Dragons.

Our hosts, Fiona and Hamilton, continue their journey of the Inner Planes by visiting the Energy Planes of Positive & Negative. As their name implies, they're composed not of matter, but of energy. Both places are difficult to define, but their effects are inescapable.

The plane of Positive Energy is said to be the mother of all life. That's because the radiation of this bright realm gives animation to all living things.

The plane of Negative Energy is an everhungering maw that seeks to quench the fires of life wherever they bum. It gives power to the ranks of the undead and other such mockeries of life, but the place is anathema to all.

Book discussed: 'The Inner Planes (2e)' published by Wizards of the Coast (1998).
