Irian, the Eternal Dawn

Irian the Eternal Dawn is a plane of positive energy. The plane is suffused with positive energy that sustains unusual - though not necessarily good aligned - forms of life.

Description
A brilliant white sun hangs in a beautiful blue sky, while rivers of liquid glass flow down from mountains of quartz. Deserts made of pure white sand and forests of crystalline growth cover the landscape.

Irian or Irian manifest zones are responsible for Irian Crystals, rare crystals which can empower healing spells and be used in other, rarer, forms of magic.

Inhabitants

 * Irian is the home of a humanoid race named the lumi, humanoid creatures seemingly composed of light.
 * The lantern archons make Irian their home as well.
 * Creatures such as the ravid fly across the plane of Irian.

Manifest Zones

 * There are many manifest zones to Irian on the island of Aerenal, which many believe is what sustains the Undying Court. Some scholars speculate thatthese manifest zones are what make Valenar riding horses so powerful, though the elves of Valenar resent it bitterly.
 * The small village of Shining Valley in Breland is said to lay in a a manifest zone to Irian, bathing the village in a glow that heals wounds and illnesses naturally over time.

Coterminous
In the short period of time when Irian is coterminous with the Material Plane, life blossoms. Days are brighter, colors are vibrant and sensations are more intense. Positive energy spells are enhanced in these times, however the manifestations occur only for the hour surrounding noon. The plane is typically coterminous in the month of Eyre.

Remote
When Irian is remote, night becomes darker, numbness hangs in the air and spells with positive energy are less powerful. These manifestations most often occur during the autumn month of Sypheros for ten days.
