Planes of Oblivion That Didn't Make the Cut

Post » Fri May 27, 2011 4:48 pm

Now, according to official lore, there are 18 known planes of Oblivion (16 belonging to Daedric princes and 2 others). However, what many of you didn't know is that there were many ideas proposed by Bethesda developers that were deemed "not good enough" to be in official lore. I'd like to show you some of those "lost planes" in an in-depth exclusive (read: I made them all up myself - feel free to add your own) that I like to call "Planes of Oblivion that Didn't Make the Cut!"

These lost realms include:

Ennui - Realm of Tedius Maximus, Daedric Prince of Extreme Boredom. An endless, flat plain of nothing but grass and a couple of abandoned strip malls. There is absolutely nothing to do here except go mad. It's like Nebraska, only without the corn.

Buggebegon - Realm of Dael Gribel, Daedric Prince of Pest Control. A thick green mist hangs over this barren, treeless, yet very much bug-free wasteland. Here and there you'll find a bird's nest filled with very easily broken eggs. A hazmat suit is recommended.

Indiana - Realm of Harrison Ford, Daedric Prince of action-adventure serials. No hijackers are allowed in this realm - any hijackers who stumble upon it will be told to "GET OFF MY PLANE (of Oblivion)!

Heck - Realm of Phil, Daedric Prince of Insufficient Light and Minor Transgressions. This realm is home to many mildly inconvenienced souls who have committed slightly naughty acts that cannot really be considered evil. Y'know, leaving the toilet seat up, hording the little mints that they keep at the receptionist's desk at the office, bad breath - those sorts of things.

This is stolen from Terry Pratchet. The last part, at least.

Oblivionland
Realm of
Spoiler
_____
, Prince of the Void. This is the only plane of Oblivion that is actually made up of real oblivion. Nothing is here, so you may as well go home. The rest of the Realms were mistakingly named Oblivion by mortals because Oblivionland was the first one to be visited by mortals. Don't bother bringing a torch; there's nothing to see in the dark.

That one is in the game. You can access it by running, harry potter style, at the wall on the right as you enter cheydinhal bridge inn.

Here's mine:

SavesTimeAtTheExpenseOfLore realm

This is where Peryite and Boethiah often hang out. Its identical to the Deadlands, and is used as a standin for their realms when they must be visited, but the devs don't want to spend time constructing one.

Really? I've actually never read anything by him. He's the guy who writes the Discworlds books, right? Anyway, you are right, I "borrowed" the idea from elsewhere (only it was from Dilbert).

HorrificallyRecedingHairLine Realm

This is the chaotic primordial abyss from where horrific receding hairlines emerged. Apparently, the Daedric minions of this realm have already taken over and replaced nearly every NPC in Tamriel by the time of TES 4 Oblivion occurs.

Halliburton - Realm of Che Ni, Daedric Prince of the Military-Industrial Complex. Consists of a huge complex of weapons factories, nuclear missile silos, munitions storage facilities, military bases, massive smokestacks belching out CO2 and other harmful gases, and detainment centers for "enemy combatants," surrounded on all sides by massive oil fields. The Daedra in service of Che Ni are called Demon Cronies - weasel-like, sniveling beasts in expensive Italian suits. At the center of the city lies an enormous vault filled with money, in which Che Ni spends most of his time swimming and wallowing (a la Scrooge McDuck). Che Ni is currently attempting an invasion of another realm of Oblivion. It isn't going very well.

In other words... the realm of FPS?

Lactosea - Realm of Chizi, Daedric Prince of Cheese. Everything is made of cheese, including the ground and buildings. The lesser Daedra are known as Chizeheds and are living clumps of cheese. Also home to the dreaded Cheese Atronatch. Chizi ultimatley failed in his attempts to be an evil Daedroth, because the only things he could possibly torment were the lactose intolerant. He was cast from his throne, and Sheogorath destroyed his realm, giving out all the chunks left of it to his fellow Daedra.

I was dissappointed when the devs didn't put in a unique world of Attribution's Share(realm of Boethiah, if you wanted to know). :(

Socktome
- The Oblivion plane where an evil Daedric Prince tries to quench his hunger for socks, after draining all of Tamriel and Nirn, his eye has now turned towards earth affecting our world. Oblivion gates have been suspected to be opening in dryers all over the globe.

Wal-Mart, the realm of Sam Walton, the daedric prince of empty promises about everyday low prices. ;)

A huge realm filled with workers who stand about and talk when you need assistance. Also, this realm is full of low-quality, Chinese-manufatured, items that cost almost the same as their American made counterparts, but break in three days forcing you to replace them with yet another shoddy piece of third-world craftsmanship since it's the only thing you can find.

He probably completes one half of the enantiomorph that also contains the Prince of Modem Dial-up Sounds, whose name is [unpronounceable] and has been lost to the annals of history.

The plane(t) would just be shaped like a dog, it would have fur instead of grass but other than that, it would be completely still

"Set#24" Ruled in cyclical ruling cycles by the dread daedra Jeri Sprin Gar, and Doct Ar'Phil.

The more purulent and disgraceful citizens of Mundus get sent here to be ridiculed for all eternity, then their corporeal forms are sent to the realm of Sanguine to improve ratings.
Mostly inhabited by pregnant teenagers, disrespectful children, and the disgustingly sixually deviant, this realm is also inhabited by the inbred and mentally incompetent.

The lesser daedra of this realm include the Seck-Urity and Stadj-Hanz, who are charged with law and order, and civic upkeep, respectively.


like most deadric cycle maintained realms, the entire realm gets restructured as one power eclipses the other.


This realm is in constant battle with the Daedra lords of Studiobee; Oh'pra and Mont-el.


All of these realms are really conquered pockets of proto-reality governed by Sanguine, for his sadistic pleasure.

The realm of Toi let, home of the single-celled daedra and the daedric prince Fe Cal. They all live in constant humiliation as the humans of earth continually flush their realm and use it as a biological waste disposal area.

I take it they also removed all the facial hair? And in the process did some throat surgery making Nords and Orcs, Khajiits and Argonians, and Dunmer, Altmer, and Bosmer all sound exactly the same?
