Sarelle, I may also post some material on the elemental planes that I've used for the development of my PbeM. It's mostly homebrew, but it conforms with all established PS material.
Are you interested?

| Is this correct? The Elemental Planes are Fire, Earth, Water, and Air. The Para-elemental planes are Magma, Ooze, Ice, and Smoke. Magma is in between Fire and Earth; Ooze is between Earth and Water. Ice is between Water and Air, and Smoke is in between Air and Fire. |
There can be only one. |

Yes, those are correct. You now have the basic conception of the elemental planes down.
Don't forget about the quasi-planes though, even given the WotC 3e cosmology. The quasi planes exist, as long as there's elemental planes and the energy planes.
The quasi planes are as follows:
Positive/Earth-----Mineral
Positive/Water----Steam
Positive/Air-------Lightning
Positive/Fire------Radiance
Negative/Earth-----Dust
Negative/Water----Salt
Negative/Air-------Vacuum
Negative/Fire------Ash

We know that this quasi-plane still has some place in the 3e cosmology. The Plane of Radiance has now been detailed as a transitive plane in Dragon #321. Of course, this begs the question... will the other quasi-planes receive similar 3e treatment?

Are we talking 3.* ed cosmology in general, or FR specific?
As there is a mention in RttToEE adventure of the plane of Vacuum. |

Arivia's suggestion is essentially correct. However, there has been (from time to time) alternate views on what exactly the Nine Hells and their Devil Lords actually represent. Once you've read through a few pages of Dante's hellish work, let me know, and I'll introduce you to a couple...

There's nothing wrong with asking a "noob" question. Afterall, we all started in much the same way...

I was about to say essentially the same thing. At some point, everyone on this site was new -- at least to here, if not to posting on forums in general. Heck, I myself have only been here for a little over 4 months. |
