The Palace of the Elements

Welcome to the most wondrous city in the Multiverse! Here you can experience the most elegant restaurants, the most beautiful artworks, and the most diverse 
population gathered together more than anywhere in known space! 
== Culture ==
The Palace of the Elements largely takes its influence from the elemental planes, however there are many subcultures and building design representative of dozens of worlds the Palace has visited. It can be largely envisioned as a massive city, full of towering buildings, interspersed with beautiful vegetation, parks, artworks and beautiful and exotic sights, too many to be named.
== Factions ==
Each district is led by a member of the council, and each of them vie for further material gain, and power, but put the wellbeing of the palace first and foremost.
== Religion ==
There are no widely accepted faiths in the Palace, the powers at be, recognize gods, but see themselves as near equal creatures, in their vast power and ability. Religious individuals do not face any persecution unless their worship proves to be problematic for the Palace or it’s inhabitants. Each major district is also home to a communal temple housing shrines to every major faith in the known pantheons.
== Demographics ==
Most any race could be found in the vast and varied districts of the palace, humans are common, as they are quite populous and tend to breed quickly. Genasi are more common in the palace than any place in the material plane, as there are many Genies who call the flying city home. Races who might be looked upon with scorn elsewhere in the world, are valued purely for their ability. Tieflings for example, make fantastic workers in the fire, smoke, and magma districts, and as such are highly valued members of the community.
Currently the palace is home to over 7.5 million full time residents, regularly swelling and ebbing with the business of tourism and providing travel.
== Government ==
Each district of The Palace is largely governed by their respective leader, though the city is run collectively by the Council of Eight. This council is formed of the leaders of every district that has a plane to represent, leaving the leaders of the other two districts to operate under them.
== Prejudices ==
Many of the denizens hold prejudices against one another, most typically these beliefs are held by Elementals who think their natural element superior to all the others, whether a Djinni finds those of earth dirty, and ash to be tainted, or a Dao finds those of the air to be too flighty, and mud to be watered down. These Prejudices are a backdrop to a genuine pride most residents feel for being a part of what is largely agreed to be the mecca for trade and inclusivity in the whole of the multiverse.
== Crime ==
“As according to widely accepted dealings, regardless of where The Palace is docked, anyone that moves into the bounds of The Palace is bound by its law, and not that of the world or sphere that they had come from. The authorities have been known to be unrelenting in their enforcement of the law, the penalties for which can be extreme. This leads to a dramatic lack of significant criminal presences. There are some organizations that specialize in skirting the law rather than outright breaking it, but they tend to be quiet and seclusive.
== Climate/Geography ==
The Palace is unique in the sense that it does not possess a single climate. Instead the natural magic of the palace flows and becomes divided into even districts, through the streets and separates them to form ideal environments to mimic those of the Elemental planes, while still being habitable and comfortable to those of a more material nature.
