Revision 2

Overview

Planestriders are individuals who travel between the 81 Planes that make up the New World after the Sundering. They function as inter-dimensional travelers and agents, often dealing with supernatural threats that span multiple Planes.

Known Planestriders

Kiana is the most prominent confirmed Planestrider. Described as "a Planestrider on a long journey" with silver braids and a star accessory, she is currently handling an Aspect Fracture on behalf of the Committee for a Joyful Iia.

The player character is described as "a plane-hopping traveler who has escaped captivity," which may also classify them as a Planestrider. Given the protagonist's revealed identity as the World-Ender, their ability to traverse Planes could be connected to their former status as a cosmic entity.

Role in the world

Planestriders appear to function as problem-solvers who address threats like Aspect Fractures across different Planes. This makes them distinct from Animasters (who train and battle with Anima) and Novarchs (who rule individual Planes). However, a character can hold multiple roles: Kiana is both a Planestrider and an Animaster.
