Editing Kelemvor (section)

==Realm==
Kelemvor's realm is the '''Fugue Plane''' which is unique to the Forgotten Realms.

It is a flat, featureless grey infinite space of practically nothing.

In the Forgotten Realms, recently departed souls do not immediately go to a plane matching their alignment; they are instead assigned based on which god will take them in. So when they die they have to linger for a while until they get collected by the agent of their deity.

That also gives them time to consider their eventual fate, which might be a bad thing if they angered their god in some way, or if their chosen deity is actually a bit of a crazy shit... [[Baatezu]] patrol here on the sufferance of Kelemvor, where they can barter with the souls for service in the Blood War and the chance to become a Devil themselves.

There are only three categories of permanent resident in the Fugue Plane: the '''False''' are those who gave lip service to the gods, but fell short of the required devotion to actually get in to their afterlife, so they don't get collected by a divine agent. They make up the majority of the population and take up residence in Kelemvor's crystalline '''City of Judgement''' where they spend eternity being rather bored, but otherwise unmolested.

The other category are the '''Faithless''' who utterly disbelieved in the gods entirely. There is no reprieve for them, they get gathered up and [[Grimdark|cemented into the city fortifications]]. With no faith to sustain them they slowly fade away into nothingness as they get absorbed into the bricks and mortar of Kelemvor's city, forming its outer wall. Kelemvor made it clear that he didn't like the arrangement, along with the after-effects of his predecessor Myrkul's past edicts (such as the spirit eater curse) but couldn't readily revoke a previous god's divine edict without getting into trouble. He was, however, prepared to ignore any loopholes. 

The third, and smallest category are the petitioners who worshipped Kelemvor directly, though in a practical sense they are no different from the False; gaining no special powers or immunities, but at least they belong to Kelemvor and he can empower or reward them however he feels necessary.

There is a fourth type, after a fashion: those who worshipped [[Ao]]. The Overgod distains such attempts to garner his favor, however,, and has such supplicants mortared directly into bricks.
