Manifest Zones

Manifest zones are certain locations on the world of Eberron that share a particularly close connection with one of the thirteen planes that orbit Eberron within the astral sea. Within a manifest zone, the area takes on properties of that plane; for instance, a manifest zone on Eberron with a link to the plane of Risia, the Plain of Ice, may make the area much colder than under normal circumstances. Manifest zones might also allow passage between one plane and the next; though for some zones this may only be a one-way trip.

The effects of a manifest zone may be related to a plane's proximity to Eberron. For instance, the effects of a zone may grow stronger as the plane approaches Eberron within the astral sea, or grow weaker as the plane grows more distant. However, even at a plane's most remote location, a manifest zone still has great effects on the world of Eberron.
