+1d10 unexpected other worlds to end up in
+.H3 "1. Glaston:"
+the demiplane of the lost, about the size of the British isles,
+made up of dozens of smaller and larger islands, struck in a never ending
+tribal war. Similar to the demiplane of Dread this place sucks in those
+lost at sea and delivers them to a shore of the Glaston islands. The domain
+can easily be left by sailing across the edge of the plane, hurling
+yourself into the endless wastes of the Astral Sea, which altogether is not
+a good idea. There is a 50% chance to access the Vertical Realms though.
+.H3 "2. The Vertical Realms:"
+this is the demiplane of salvage. The whole plane
+is a steep cliff, roughly circular, constantly showered and sprayed by a
+waterfall coming over the top. Multiple civilizations can be found here, in
+the cracks and crevasses of the cliff, building shelter out of caves and
+scavenged goods. The deeper you go the colder it gets, with the constant
+rain turning into icy mist before disappearing into the void. Travel is via
+hewn paths in the side of the cliff, or flight. Flying over the top of the
+demiplane seems impossible.
+.H3 "3. The Clockwork Moon:"
+this place is an inter dimensional nexus the shape
+and form of a small moon with curiously regular, hexagonal features. The
+surface of the moon is of luminescent ivory and dark grey color, with the
+inhabitants living in almost antiseptic looking cities.
+The true power lies in the center of the wordlet, as it is an impossibly
+elaborate machine steered by a creature known only as the Man.
+The Moon can be reached only when it is in the sky of any particular world
+or plane (although there is a 1/30 chance for this being the case in
+Glaston and the Vertical Realms)
+.H3 "4. The Elemental Plane of Slood:"
+a plane made up of the essence of slood.
+As the whole concept of Slood is incompatible with most universes it is
+recommended to only access it with appropriate protection spells. As these
+spells are only available in Slood-enabled universes in the first place
+this rapidly becomes a chicken and egg problem with characters playing both
+parts.
+.H3 "5. The Quasielemental Plane of Mayo:"
+one of the truly minor planes this
+place contains the essence of emulsified oils and vinegar. Its existence
+was largely seen as a nothing but an academic joke, until a very
+enterprising student of magic decided to tap into its power and proved both
+the existence of the plane and its corresponding inhabitants. The results
+of this caused him to be burned as a heretic, struck from all official
+documents, and any further research into it banned by royal decree.
+.H3 "6. The world of Cloock:"
+this plane is in a lot of ways a standard material
+plane, but the dominant species are descended from avian stock. They are
+chicken people. Although there are a few turkey people, smaller communities
+of quailfolk, and a smattering of ducks around.
+.H3 "7. Prime 33e delta 12:"
+by all accounts this is a standard prime world, but
+the sizes are completely different: human-sized characters will find
+themselves about the size of bacteria and have to struggle with surrounding
+micro(now macro-)organisms. On the plus side some tribes of amoeba
+encountered have been rather gregarious.
+.H3 "8. Halfworld:"
+this world is the shape of a coin, a large platter with
+lands, seas, and oceans, bordered by a large rim of steep cliffs that keeps
+the lands separate from the Astral Void. The world has a small sunlet that
+has an orbit which provides longer, but less intensive sun to one side (the
+bright side) and more intensive but shorter sunlight to the other (the dark
+side). The two societies on both sides are largely unaware of each other
+and have developed along different lines, but recent extensive tunneling
+through the heart of the coin by the underground dwarf empire might bring
+them into contact and/or conflict.
+.H3 "9. Elyon, the lost battlefield:"
+once one of the richest and most fertile
+lands of its forgotten plane, this formerly rich riverland was ripped out
+of its own world when a heavenly host and a demonic horde tried to fight
+over it. By now it is a desert of scattered ruins under a permanent
+blood-red sky. The river runs grey and drains into the River Styx now. The
+few human survivors that still make the wasteland their home don't see a
+difference between angels and demons anymore, who still wage an endless war
+trying to capture each others ziggurat fortresses, or just lurk in the
+ruins waiting for prey.
+.H3 "10. Superstructure:"
+the character finds themselves floating in a dark void
+with nothing but swirly, dust-like lights dancing all around them, slowly
+forming themselves into patterns and circling around them. The character
+can stay if they like, but the process is not endless: after about a day it
+becomes obvious that the lights start to gather around the character, after
+two days it becomes obvious that the space around becomes smaller and
+darker, as the lights fade away. The character should not be around at the
+end of day 3, when the whole universe they are in collapses into a single
+point and (as time itself collapses as well) eventually explodes into a new
+universe, this time with the matter of the character integrated into it.
