Cosmology

The game RuneScape sets itsself in a multiverse, a collection of universes. Each universe (,also known as Realm, dimension, plane or world) is seperated from eachother by the Abyss. Because of that, it is possible to teleport to other worlds via the Abyss. It is also possible to travel to the same world using the Abyss as a shortcut. At the edge of the Abyss is a membrane seperating, also known as the periphery, the Abyss from the Void, nothingness. Inside the periphery are all the corporeal worlds. All the corporeal worlds were created by the Elder Gods. Their current creation is also known as the current revision, because they 'revise' or restructure the universe every time they wake up from their slumber. Somewhere inside the Abyss is a huge lump of clay. This is crushed up remains from previous revisions. It is now known as the Primordial realm.

Besides that, there are also a couple incorporeal worlds. These worlds work differently then the corporeal worlds and can't be as easily given a set location. These are the currently known incorporeal worlds:
 * The Underworld
 * The Shadow Realm
 * The Spirit Realm
 * The Afterlife

Types of worlds
All of the worlds inside the multiverse can be seperated into 4 different types.
 * The lower planes, the oldest worlds in the multiverse. Except for Freneskae, which is a remnant of the previous revision, all the worlds on this plane are unbalanced and often lean towards a specific element. It is on these worlds leftovers from the previous cycle are most obviously visible. An example of this would be Ancient Magicks, which were first discovered on these worlds. The currently known, lower-plane worlds are:
 * Freneskae, a balanced world from the previous revision
 * Infernus, aligned with smoke
 * Vampyrium, aligned with blood
 * Leng, aligned with ice
 * The elemental planes, were created by the elder gods when they split up. The worlds on this plane have an obvious alignment with a certain element. Which element depends on which god or gods created the world. The currently known, elemental-plane worlds are:
 * Muspell, aligned with lava (fire and earth, Ful and Bik)
 * Abbinah, aligned with smoke (air and fire, Jas and Ful)
 * Yu'biusk, aligned with mud (earth and water, Bik and Wen)
 * The catalytic planes show a high level of sophistication. They were created when the elder gods had already learned much about the universe and were trying out new techniques for creating worlds. They combined familiar elements with other elements of the universe. The catalytic worlds themselves are divided unto 3 different types.
 * Primordial planes:
 * Ocslaru, aligned with body (Bik and somthing else)
 * Teragard, aligned with law ([[Wen and something else)
 * Kethsi, aligned with mind (Jas and something else)
 * The higher planes:
 * Naragun, aligned with nature (Bik and something else)
 * The transcendental planes
 * Hallow, aligned with astral (Jas, Wen and something else)
 * Tarddiad, aligned with soul (Jas, Bik and something else)
 * The balanced planes were created last. They are capable of generating a steady flow of Anima Mundi. The worlds are created with the combined strength and knowledge of all the elder gods. It is here that the Elder gods created their perfect world and went to sleep. The currently known balanced-plane worlds are:
 * Gielinor
