Planar Attunement

Beings from one Plane while visiting other planes may feel weakened and out of sync from the new plane they are within. This results in the person not fighting at their full natural strength.
Examples include the Demons when in The World are in a weaken state compared with their power in their home plane. Likewise Humans visiting the Demon Homeworld are also weakened.
It is possible to attune to other planes over time, but the methods are unknown. It is theorised this requires consuming an amount of local food.
Humans outside their homeplane seems to experience a lower requirement to eat or sleep. Slowed down substantially in the ethereal plane (Hardcore Heroes: Episode 53), non existent on the Demon Homeworld (Homeward Bound). If this is part of Planar Attunement is unknown. Dragons likewise in The World have no need to eat but still enjoy doing so.
==Gameplay==
Planar Attunement is shown by a debuff to monsters outside their homeplane. However in gameplay, Player Characters outside their homeplane are not debuffed and instead the monsters are buffed. (The exception is the penalty to saving throws which is applied to the player characters.)
If a monster is outside their homeplane, for example the Demons when invaded Eridon they have a debuff, lowering their AC & chance-to-hit. In their home plane they no longer have this debuff.
Players Characters in the Demon Homeworld should also have this debuff, but instead the Demons receive a buff instead (but Players Characters still get a -4 penalty to saving throws). This buff to demons is to simulate that the player characters are weakened on the Demon Homeworld.
Definitions:
