Editing Planes of Existence (section)

==== The Wardens ====
The Wardens are beings within the Far Realm that try to ensure that the Exiled don’t cross into the other planes. Due to the inability of the gods and primordials to directly affect the Far Realm, all Wardens are powerful beings from the Material Plane granted the gift of the Deep Mind, which allows them to shut off the part of their mind that processes conventionality. Deep Mind is a powerful mental focus that takes decades of dedicated practice to master, and even then it is known as something that can only slow the mental decay of living in the Far Realm. Thus, most Wardens eventually go mad and must be imprisoned themselves, or sent to, say, fight in the Abyss. Fortunately, this corruption takes thousands of years, and there are very few Wardens in general.
