Celestial Heavens

The Celestial Heavens, or simply Heaven, was a realm in the Spirit World, the domain of the Celestial Empire of Kara-Tur. "Heaven" was often a byword for the Celestial Empire itself, or for the Celestial Emperor.

Inhabitants
Heaven was home to the Celestial Emperor and the Nine Immortals, as well as the Lesser Immortals and other officials of the Celestial Bureaucracy.

Heaven was also home to the Ancestors, the spirits of the dead who'd been judged by the Lords of Karma to have lived a life of goodness and merit. They and enjoyed eternal lives without pain, weakness, or suffering.

Locations
Each deity of the Celestial Bureaucracy had a small realm in Heaven. At the Center of All Heaven, the Celestial Emperor ruled from his Jade Throne.

Activities
The Moon Women of the Lesser Immortals had the great responsibility of maintaining Heaven itself. They refilled the oil lamps in the Sun, polished the crystal orbs of the stars, and steered the motions of the Moon and the constellations. The Ladies of Compassion roamed Heaven to find and alleviate pain and suffering.

Magic
A Sage (or "Budda", as they were known in Tabot) was a spirit who'd lived a life of boundless merit, purity, and resolve, with the sole goal of attaining perfection and becoming one with the will of Heaven, to become Heaven itself.
