R.P.G. Spelljammer Sandbox - Part 5 - Tír Na Nóg



When most non-elves think of elf space, they think of Tír Na Nóg.  Adjacent to both Britain and Gaul Prime, it is the most likely place for outsiders to frolic.

It has seen the ravages of war, but the forces of Astra Byzantium rarely can do much other than the occasional raid due to its unique properties and well-armed fleet.

Positive Astral Pulsar

Instead of a sun at the center, it has this unique stellar body. It is a conduit to the positive material plane after going through an astral pocket. It is strong gravitation pull that pulls in material and alters time throughout a sizable chunk of the Sphere.  This strange property also accelerates healing and the life.  However, this also creates positive energy parasites that get into everything, including food.  The side effect of such food is lethargic and bliss that will kill the unwary and the inoculated over time. 

The Cooshee Clog

Also known as Deep Space Hush Puppy by their detractors, this external shoe shaped space station is the main garrison of the elven armada in the area.  It is on the outskirts of the sphere and is a place which doubles as a diplomatic zone where envoys from other parts of space interact. 

Maglubiyet’s Comet

This sparkling comet has a unique orbit that travels between encircling the Positive Astral Pulsar and then Transverses to Tír Tairngire, the Sphere that is considered the capital of Astral Arcadium.  This allows it to be used as a strong wind that allows easy travel, so it has a convoy to ensure that it stays protected.

The Creeping Green

This reach of red tinged vines spreads out and acts as a border between outer and inner space.  It feeds off the Positive Astral Pulsar and is the reason that the outer sphere doesn’t have the same temporal effects.  This cluster often has massive space seeds that essentially act like asteroids.  Trap Worlds are seeded throughout this complex in the name of self-defense.

Magh Mor

This massive gas giant is one giant air pocket with floating islands/moons in its atmosphere.  It is the major elf habitable zone in the sphere.  It has a massive “vine ring” that is used to grow new islands that float in its atmosphere.  It has a magical shield that surrounds the planet that allows the elves to restrict access, but it’s rumored that the codes for the shield have been stolen by nefarious forces.
