CHAPTER 3:CHARACTERSAND MAGIC32destroyed. The planeshifter must have a single flawlessgemstone of at least 1,000 gp value and work on the demiplanefor 100 consecutive days, for 8 hours per day.Upon completion of the work, the seed opens into aminuscule spherical demiplane, 1 foot in radius. It growsquickly, gaining 1 foot in radius per day up to a maximumradius of 10 feet × the planeshifter’s highest caster level.After reaching that size, the demiplane continues to growslowly, gaining 2 feet of radius per year. If its creator perishes,the demiplane stops growing.The planeshifter’s demiplane has the following planartraits: normal time, alterable, and normal magic. At creation,the planeshifter can set whatever gravity trait, elementaltraits, and alignment traits he likes, and canchoose whether the plane is finite or self-contained.While the demiplane isn’t morphic, the planeshifterhas total control over the landscape at the moment ofcreation, so he can decide whether it will be a foreboding,mountainous wasteland or a bucolic forest. The terrainset at creation extends itself as the demiplanegrows. While it’s not possible to fit jagged peaks into a1-foot sphere, cliffs and summits appears as the demiplanegrows.The demiplane grown from the seed is unfurnished,so the planeshifter must provide what construction isnecessary. It has a single portal entry, which the planeshiftermay control for access. Demiplanes are oftenused as hiding places, research labs, and prisons for particularbeasts.MAGIC ON THE PLANESA number of spells affect or use planes beyond theMaterial Plane. What follows is a summary of spells thathave a planar aspect. If you wish to modify or eliminateparticular planes, you may wish to change or removethese spells from play as well.Spells marked with an asterisk (*) are new spellsdescribed in this chapter.Spells marked with (F) are spells that use forceeffects, so they affect the Ethereal Plane in addition tothe Material Plane. If you choose not to use the EtherealPlane in your campaign, they are still useful.You can have spells that create elements without havingelemental planes in your cosmology. Similarly, you canhave spells that use negative or positive energy withoutrequiring energy planes, and spells that affect alignmentswithout having specific planes for those alignments.ASTRAL PLANE SPELLSAstral projectionDimensional anchorDimension doorInterplanar message*Summon monster spells (I–IX)TeleportTeleportation circleTeleport without errorVanishZone of respite*ETHEREAL PLANE SPELLSBlink, chamber*Dimensional anchorEthereal jauntEtherealnessExplosive runes (F)Forcecage (F)Invisibility purgeLeomund’s secret chestLeomund’s tiny hut (F)Mage armor (F)Magic missile (F)Make manifest*Mass manifest*Maze (F)Mordenkainen’s sword (F)Otiluke’s resilient sphere (F)Otiluke’s telekinetic sphere (F)See invisibilitySepia snake sigil (F)Shield (F)Spiritual weapon (F)Tenser’s floating disk (F)True seeingVanishWall of force (F)Zone of respite*Zone of revelation*PLANE OF SHADOW SPELLSDimensional anchorGreater shadow conjurationGreater shadow evocationShadesShadow conjurationShadow evocationShadow walkSummon monster (I–IX)Zone of respite*ELEMENTAL PLANE SPELLSAvoid planar effects*Elemental swarmElemental body*Safety*Summon monster (I–IX)SPELLS THAT AFFECT EXTRAPLANARCREATURESBanishmentBlasphemyDictumDismissalForbiddanceGreater planar ally
