− | This article provides a '''list of Spelljammer crystal spheres,''' or [[planetary system]]s, created for the ''[[Spelljammer]]'' (1989) [[campaign setting]]. Notably, ''Spelljammer'' ties in with three other campaign settings—''[[Dragonlance]], [[Forgotten Realms]],'' and ''[[Greyhawk]]''—by placing these settings on celestial bodies in these systems.
| |
| | | |
− | Each system is listed from innermost body to outermost. Unless otherwise noted, all planets are spherical, with breathable air.
| |
− |
| |
− | Collectively '''[[Greyspace]], [[Krynnspace]],''' and '''[[Realmspace]]''' are known as the "Radiant Triangle."
