The Astral Plane is a part of The Gray, and is an open realm filled with silver and bright colors. Like the other parts of the Gray, the Astral Plane is closely aligned with the Material Plane, but also intersects throughout the realms of the gods and in effect touches upon every plane within the sphere of Krynn. The realm itself is a large silvery sky that is the realm which binds all others together, and is a huge open domain. When a mage uses a portal to travel, they are in the Astral Plane before reaching the other side. In simple terms, the Astral Plane is the space between all the other planes which allows transport and travel to occur.
Time and gravity have no effect in this realm, and there are practically no native inhabitants to the realm. Travellers can be frequent, due to the nature of the Astral Plane however. It is rumored that the Astral Plane is the domain of Solinari, however the deity has no greater control over this realm than any other god.
