Liminal Dimension

The Liminal Dimension is the primary threshold dimension of Galaxa. It is composed of layered planes that together form the lived reality of mortals, as well as the hidden currents of lifeforce, thought, and spirit. Named for its nature as a series of thresholds, the Liminal Dimension ensures that mortals are always poised between birth and death, body and soul, dream and waking.

Structure

The Liminal Dimension contains four primary planes:

• Median Plane (Galaxa) – The material surface of reality, home to mortals and physical life.
• Teleka Plane – The lifeforce stratum, a river of vitality flowing beneath flesh and matter.
• Astral Plane (Galaxa) – The thought and dream expanse, used for psionics, prophecy, and astral travel.
• Ethereal Plane (Galaxa) – The ghostly threshold between soul and body, where shades and spirits drift.

These planes are not separate realms but layers of the same dimensional reality, overlapping and interwoven.

Relation to the Prison Dimension

The Prison Dimension (Galaxa) is an adjacent dimension whose access points manifest in liminal locations across each plane. Certain crossroads, haunted places, or corrupted Teleka breaches may thin the barrier, allowing entry. Because of this, mortals and immortals alike treat such sites with fear, knowing they risk breaching the prison of the damned.

Nature and Function

The Liminal Dimension sustains mortal existence while embedding access to higher mysteries. Every soul born in Galaxa emerges through the Median Plane, nourished by the Teleka Plane’s lifeforce, linked to the Astral Plane’s thought-web, and destined to cross into the Ethereal Plane upon death.

Divine and Cultural Perspectives

Divines teach that the Liminal Dimension was layered deliberately to serve as a proving ground. Mortals live on thresholds, facing constant choice and transformation. Cultures within Galaxa often call it “the Veil Dimension,” “the World Between,” or “the River of Skins,” emphasizing its transitional essence.

Role in Technology

Civilizations within Galaxa exploit the Liminal Dimension in both mysticism and advanced science:

• The Teleka Plane powers [[Teleka Drive

Teleka Drives]], enabling FTL travel.

• The Astral Plane (Galaxa) is navigated by dreamwalkers and mapped for communication networks.
• The Ethereal Plane (Galaxa) provides necromantic insight, though its instability makes it feared.
