Hi everybody!
I've just recently acquired the Pathfinder Campaign Setting, and I've loved it so far. However, I too loved what WotC did with the planes and the general cosmology of the game (mind I've never read the former cosmology thoroughly). I particularly love the introduction of the Feywild and the Shadowfell as places-in-between, parallel realities where the natural laws are warped and fundamentally different from those of the normal, 'middle' world. Exalted has something similar too, and I think Golarion should benefit with such a cosmology.
My problem is, ¿could anyone suggest me ways for introducing the new planes in Golarion? I already know I want Asmodeus as a former devil turned into an usurper god, I want Feywild-born elves ('Eladrin' is just a fluffy term to me), I want titans in the dwarven origin and I want bleak lands of the dead for my characters to fall into.
Also, I was thinking specifically in which ways are the FW/SF planes distinct from the middle realm. Can a human live indefinitely there? What sort of civilizations have arisen in said planes? How much their inhabitants know about the middle realm? What is the nature of the relationship between those realms with the middle realm? Do they overlap occasionally? What reason could have an inhabitant of one real for crossing over, if any?
Finally, I understand there are other supplements that deal with fey creatures (Guide to Darkmoon Vale, I believe). How it portrays them and how could I convert them to this new cosmology?
Any help is welcome, really. Thank you all in advance.
Regards,
ZOOROOS
