</infobox>The Heroic Domains of Ysgard, also referred to as Gladsheim, was the Great Wheel plane straddling the alignments of chaotic good and chaotic neutral. Like the Greek influence on Arborea, much of this plane was heavily dominated by the Titans of the Norse pantheon who had little interaction with the people of Allion.

Appearance

The three layers of Ysgard consisted of tremendous rivers of earth and stone that formed cosmic arches through the void, like very tightly packed asteroid belts. Millions of miles/kilometers wide, each river was made up of gigantic chunks of matter that bumped and ground against each other at a glacial but noticeable pace, raising up mountains and opening vast chasms. These "earthbergs" all shared the same gravity field and most were inhabitable on the top side while the underside of the rivers burned with a radiant fire that provided a ruddy light to the rivers below. Earthquakes and landslides were a commonly occurring danger in Ysgard as the landscape slowly buckled and broke under the influence of chaos.

Around the layers of Ysgard sat an infinite warring cosmos, filled with galaxies, stars and planets colliding into each other, with new ones being born in the dawn of the Ysgardian sun. Ysgards sun would emit a bright orange light, bouncing off the golden palace of Asgard, bathing the surroundings in a spectrum of colored light.

Multiple rough-hewn landings of the Infinite Staircase connected to each of Ysgard's three layers.

Weather

The weather was controlled by the Titans of Ysgard, specifically Odin. Every season was irregular and extreme.

Religion

Religion was not a prime focus of the plane, although the plane features temples from every religion. Residents of Asgard leaned heavily towards Aziels beliefs and Silats, believing in life and chaos co-existing.
