Well, theoretically a Warhammer 40k Death World should give Athas a run for it's money. In a dedicated interplanar war between the two, which one would win? The land, the water, the plants, the air. Pretty much everything is trying to kill you. Phyrexia - Basically the entire history of Dominaria and Phyrexia. It's Yawgmoth's fault, but if he died, it would spiral out of control that much faster)Īfter being involved in an extraplanar conflict, the opposing plane did everything it could to seal the portal and place VERY large warning signs instructing everyone else to never go here.
(True of Athas obviously, but also Phyrexia, as an artificiial plane, is innately unstable. The people in charge are the ones who caused it, and dethroning them will simply hasten the collapse.
The world is a barren wasteland, slowly plunging towards the inevitable collapse of all life. I'm sure Grixis is nice and deadly as well, but I stopped following M:TG a while ago. I'd say you could throw most tanar'ri onto Athas and they'd be fine, a balor would have some fun, so that internally Planescape had far worse stuff than Athas. Some layers of the Abyss are supposed to be even worse, so dangerous that even upper level Tanar'ri can't survive them. Most of the Inner Planes were pretty bad, but especially the Negative Quasielemental Planes (Salt makes Darksun look like one of the Great Lakes, Ash sucks the heat right out of you and can kill white dragons, Dust makes you disintegrate, and Vacuum is a plane of absolute emptiness filled with disintegration fungus and other things that want to kill you). I'd be leaning towards Baator.Well Baator is rather tame as the planes go (the Grey Waste is worse, Gehenna might be, Pandemonium is worse, the Abyss is all over the place and that's just Lower Planes).
I mean, even from a purely D&D prospective, given the choice between adventuring through all nine hells of Baator, or all the city-states of Athas. Just as a lark, can anyone name any setting more harsh than Darksun?
