Kaladesh is a plane where Aether is more manifest than on other planes, being present in the atmosphere.

Description

Kaladesh is an ethnically diverse [1] plane where natural mages are rare. Work that would be done with magic on other planes is instead accomplished through devices. [2] The automatons, thopters and other artifact creatures of the plane are fueled by æther, which is heavily trafficked. Artifacts are built as much for beauty as for function. Fire magic is strictly banned, and pyromancy punishable with a death sentence, since pyromantic magic interacts dangerously with the aether in the air. [3] [4]

Kaladesh is ruled by Consuls. Their forces and works are nearly omnipresent. Since the discovery of harnessing aether by Avaati Vya, the Consulate has worked to ensure that this refined aether is accessible to all, leading to an era referred to as the Great Aether Boom. They are opposed by renegades, who believe that the Consulate constricts their freedoms.

Kaladesh was first introduced in Origins as the home plane of Chandra Nalaar.[5] Slightly over a year later, it was the setting for a block of the same name.

Known locations

  • Ghirapur, the city of wonders, capital of Kaladesh, seat of the Consulate
  • Lathnu, a mining city in the far north.
  • Peema, a forest whose fauna is infused with Aether.
  • Vahd, an expansive region that was once solely devoted to farming, but now has become the center of the aerowright industry.

Inhabitants

Most lifeforms of Kaladesh have been transformed by the Aether in some way.

  • Elves: Kaladeshi Elves are more in tune how Aether influences the natural world
  • Humans: One of the few species whose physiology is unaffected by the Aether
  • Vedalken: Vedalken on Kaladesh are tall, six-fingered beings that subscribe to the view that nothing is perfect.
