Pang Realm

The Pang Realm is a plane of existence situated adjacent to the Astral Plane and the Seven Heavens of Mount Celestia in the Outer Planes. Few creatures are native to the Pang Realm, the most notable of which being the Living Tribunal. One would get to the Pang Realm by traversing through the Ethereal Plane to the front of the Plane of Ice and through the Pang Passage. After going through the Pang Passage, one would find themselves entering the Astral Plane (in physical form). One would then either have to fly upwards for 3000 feet, or hitch a ride on a Githyanki Ship (usually an Astral Brig). Upon ascending above the clouds of the Astral Plane, one would find the Pang Pool, a color pool of the Astral Plane.

Alternatively, it is also possible to enter the Pang Realm by traversing to the Astral Plane in physical form through the use of a portal, but one must be warned that finding the Pang Pool is extremely difficult, given the various other color pools in the Astral Plane.

If one wishes to use the Plane Shift spell to reach the Pang Realm instead of the Pang Pool, one would need a set of tuning forks made of Chromium tuned to the D7#5 chord (D, F#, A# C), or the D7b9#11 (D, F#, A, C, Eb, G#) chord to reach the residence of the Living Tribunal. However, do note that the Guardian of the Pang Realm may choose to deny entry to ones who choose to enter the Pang Realm in this manner.

If one is of a high enough level, it is also entirely possible to cast the gate spell and create a portal that links directly to the Pang Realm. However, the Guardian of the Pang Realm, Robin Pang, has the ability to close such a portal and/or banish any travelers that find their way through.

One should note that it is not possible to enter the Pang Realm whilst not in physical form, so casting Astral Projection and finding the Pang Pool would not allow the traveler to enter the Pang Realm. If one were to try to do so, they would be immediately returned to their last plane of existence, with their projection's hit points reduced to 0.

Guardian of the Pang Realm
Robin Pang is the Guardian of the Pang Realm, having the power to banish creatures who dare trespass and having complete control over any Conjuration spells one might attempt to cast inside the Pang Realm. No-one is able to teleport (be it through a spell or an ability like Fey Step) inside the Pang Realm nor are they able to summon or conjure any creature or object without Mr Pang's prior knowledge. The Guardian is bestowed with great powers of Evocation to call forth and channel the divine powers of Mr Yeo to fell enemies of the great one. The Guardian does not usually venture out of the Pang Realm unless Mr Yeo summons him so.

Creatures of the Pang Realm
The Pang Realm is a mysterious plane of existence that can be compared to that of the Feywild, only with less life. Not many creatures have the ability to thrive here, not because of monstrous predators but due to a lack of sustenance. Creatures in the Pang Realm sustain themselves on Byte Fruits and Pools of Genuine Energy. Out of the few creatures that are able to thrive in the Pang Realm, the most notable would certainly be the Living Tribunal, comprising of the Guardian, Mr Yeo, Ms Tang and Mr Chua.

The Living Tribunal
The four members of the Living Tribunal have been delegate different tasks, given their varying strengths and powers. The Guardian is assigned the task of protecting and maintaining the well-being of the Pang Realm; Ms Tang is assigned the domain of the arcane arts, researching spells and other aspects of wizardry; Mr Chua is assigned the domain of creating tools, weapons and items, imbued with the holy divine powers of Mr Yeo; finally, Mr Yeo is in charge of cleansing the realms of impurities, taking particular interest in the Material Plane, where he once descended to bestow certain chosen humans with profound knowledge. The members of the Living Tribunal all reside in the Pang Realm, and shield it from intruders and harm.

Nascent Sentinels
Other than the members of the Living Tribunal, the Nascent Sentinels also reside in the Pang Realm and maintain a healthy, friendly relationship with the Living Tribunal. In return for letting them stay in the Pang Realm, they have been given the task of visiting the various planes through color pools in the Astral Plane and bringing back various items, scrolls and spells. The Nascent Sentinels were originally lifeless constructs that were servants of the Githyanki, who treated them with harsh cruelty. After the Great Invasion, the Living Tribunal gifted the deserted constructs found of the various damaged brigs of the Githyanki with the gift of life, and allowed them to reside in the Pang Realm with the Living Tribunal. As such, the constructs, transforming to become the Nascent Sentinels, became ever-indebted to the Living Tribunal and vowing to serve them till the ends of time.

Other Creatures
Other than the two above, less notable creatures also reside in the Pang Realm. These creatures tend to be creatures of lower-intelligence, and as such, the members of the Living Tribunal have decided that the creatures were not a threat and permitted them to reside in the Pang Realm. These creatures include the Phang Spider and the various Foo Creatures.

Notable Events
Due to the little number of inhabitants of the Pang Realm, not much happens here. However, due to the fact that the Pang Realm is accessible through the Pang Pool in the Astral Plane, one day, by accident, the Githyanki pirates that live in the Astral Plane stumbled across the Pang Pool and ended up in the Pang Realm. Wanting to take control over the new realm that they had found, the Githyanki tried to take the Pang Realm by storm, sending armies of constructs (now the Nascent Sentinels) to kill all the inhabitants of the Pang Realm. Fortunately, the great Mr Yeo was in the Pang Realm at the time, and was able to wipe out the invaders, casting Consecration to kill each and every single Githyanki. However, casting the spell had taken a toll on Mr Yeo, and a few Githyanki pirates had managed to survive the onslaught. Just when the pirates started to pillage the Pang Realm, the constructs turned on their masters and killed the survivors. In return, Mr Yeo blessed the constructs with the gift of life, causing them to morph into a new being - the Nascent Sentinels.
