Physical Conditions

The primary means of transportation through Elysium is the River Oceanus, which runs through all four layers. Yggdrasil also connects across the layers, and can also serve as a means of transportation. Movement on foot, however, is also used by many, thanks to the Travelers' Way; an effect whereby those who do good deeds along their travel will find themselves quickly arriving at their destination, while those who do not will never arrive. This both speeds transit across the plane and helps to protect against invaders from outside.

There is no bad weather on Elysium; days are always bright and sunny, while nights are always cool and calm. Though it never seems to rain here, daily coatings of dew cover the plants of the plane each day, providing the necessary moisture for them to thrive.

Elysium is quite unfriendly to undead, with any who enter the plane suffering 2d6 damage per round until they leave. Their skin begins to smoke and burn, as if they were immersed within holy water; those with throats begin to cough and choke. Eventually, when the undead is reduced to 0 hit points, they burst into flames, leaving behind only a few ashes that are soon scattered by the wind.
