The Plane of Radiance

Out of the north comes golden splendor; God is clothed with terrible majesty.

    -- Job 37: 22

The Quasi-elemental plane of Radiance is a universe of brilliant energy phenomena, seen on our earth only in high-tech physics. One can find radiance-substance in natural stars and the auroras around the poles. Without "radiance plane protection" or "fire plane protection", visitors will be burned to a crisp in one turn even if they escape the other hazards. Clerical "resist fire" or a ring of fire resistance prevents this. Bring special sunglasses (or a modified "darkness" spell) or be permanently blinded until a "regeneration" spell is used. Every round, check vs. dexterity or suffer the effects of a "prismatic spray" ("radiance plane protection", or protection from both adjacent planes, eliminates this hazard). "Darkness" affects creatures here for 1d6 hp/level damage (save for half damage). There is no normal air here. This is a fine place to make light-related magic items or magic weapons. The Heart of Light is a tower at the border of the positive energy plane, famous as a home for great healers.

The Ministry of Elemental Good -- Radiance Ministers

Mystics in the Judeo-Christian-Islamic tradition often speak of unexpected visions of fire or bright light which transform the visionary forever after.

Radiance ministers are mystics, seeking revelation that cannot be put into words, but which transforms ordinary people into men and women of great goodness. All possess infravision, and if their race ordinarily has this, it is of double range.
