Plane of Innovation

Overview

The Plane of Innovation consists of a massive steel factory surrounded by a salvage yard full of industrial waste. Miles of narrow valleys twist and turn between the towering piles of junk that litter the plane. Yesterdays models of clockworks roam these valleys aimlessly searching for spare parts to sustain their artificial lives, while new and improved models are being built within the factory. Any who enter the plane should be wary of the outdated, rogue clockworks, for they have only one purpose now; survival.

Many Gnomes have been allowed to enter the Plane of Innovation, even before the recent discovery of the realm by Norrathians. It is here that their imaginations run wild with inventions both magnificent and maniacal. There is one Gnome here more notable than the rest. His name is Nitram Anizok, and he has built a home in the northwest corner of the junkyard. Anizok is obviously hard at work constructing a massive machine, who some say is intended for Rallos Zek the Warlord. For the daring adventurers that inquire enough about this creation, Anizok will show them. For on the other side of the junkyard is a oil-spewing, clockwork dragon named Xanamech Nezmirfathen. Anizok will test his greatest creation's skill against those who follow him to the lair. Defeating the monstrosity will earn particpants a key to the factory itself. Once inside the factory, a Gnome named Giwin Mirakon will greet visitors with a request. That is to test one of his creations, the Manaetic Behemoth. This giant clockwork warrior has the ability to drain the life of any assailants using all four elements and pure magic as well, while his Wave of White Noise will silence all casters anywhere near him. Defeating him will earn the right to enter Drunder, the Fortress of Zek, which is better known as the Plane of Tactics. The Plane of Innovation also holds the secrets to entering the Plane of Time, but that would require much more effort to uncover.
