List of Planes
by RobinI remembered that for another compilation book I once made(but did not finish as of yet), I searched for all Planes ever mentioned in OD&D, D&D basic, Mystara references(D&D, AD&D1+2, D&D3-4-5, D20), books, adventures, gazetteers, etc. Including Fan based material (like the Immortal lists on Pandius by James Mishler), And from this I compiled a list of all Planes (not including any dimensions).
This is the list.

A few remarks;
Limbo was mentioned twice and the descriptions differed greatly. The Bruce Heard version Limbo I kept its name, the version also used in AD&D2 became Limbus.
Limbo and the spirit realm I prefer to see as the same Plane, but other regions. As described here on Piazza earlier this is well possible. Yet I have both listed here seperately for those not thinking like that.
