The Elemental Plane of Water is home to the Great Starry Sea, a vast ocean that stretches from horizon to horizon with seemingly no end. Its waters are deep dark blue, and contain within it motes of tiny stars that twinkle and sparkle in the great waves. The sky is a panorama of clouds coloured in rich hues of varying luminescent pigments that move and bleed into each other. Though there is no sun, the light from the glowing sea itself and the luminous clouds overhead create an effulgent brightness. Without mastery of Aquamancy, adventurers will often find it difficult to travel upon this plane without being thrown around by the waves.
The Mystic River is also accessible from the surface of the Starry Sea, though adventurers must dive deep into a churning whirlpool in order to find it. Fed by the waters that cascade from the floating reflection of the Pool of Stars, the water here is suspended in the cosmos. For as far as the eye can see, the water courses from this source into a river that weaves through the vibrant chromatic pigments that blur together in the omnipresence of space. There are no river banks or beaches to confine the river's course, which ends abruptly at the Mystic Falls. Once over the falls, an adventurer will find themselves upon the Lake of Dreams, where the waters sparkle and span in all directions as far as the eye could see unto the horizon's edge. Within the waters are misty reflections of dreams which will soon disperse into a fizz of bubbles, only to be replaced by others. Overhead, the sky is filled with cloudy splashes of colours that glow with an inner luminescent sheen.
History
Landmarks
The N.C.S. Empress's Hope
A glorious and beautiful sea-faring vessel, this huge galleon glides easily through the dark waters of the Starry Sea. Crafted from dark, rich wood, the hull has been coated in a fine varnish that glistens with the light of the stars within the waters through which it sails, its sides mimicking the waters that ripple about it. Several levels of windows open up from the side of the hull and high above the rails of the deck can be seen, above which ripple shimmering white sails, dancing in the warm breeze that caresses the Starry Sea. Crafted of coral, shells, pearls and sand dollars, the image of the Vernal Empress Marilynth is set at the fore of the bow as a figurehead, her form resplendent in the starlight. It weighs about 4095 pounds.
Flora and Fauna
- a serpentine starsucker - An enormous serpent with large flippers, bloated body and a long, sinuous neck. Small tuber-like tendrils cover its blotchy green-blue body, and its eyes are small muddy ovals with yellow, hourglass-shaped pupils. Swimming through the Great Starry Sea, it sucks up the waters, drinks the power of the stars, and then excretes the rest through its flabby gills. A serpentine starsucker is quite powerful. It weighs about 593 pounds. When slain, light essence is formed, which can be taken to the Pool of Stars to be converted into power for the citizens of New Celest.
