White Kingdom

The White Kingdom is a layer of the Abyss in the Dungeons & Dragons roleplaying game ruled by Doresain, also known as the King of Ghouls. It is believed to lie on the 421st layer of the Abyss.

According to the Fiend Folio, the abyssal ghouls are servants of the King, so it is likely they can be found in the White Kingdom.

The White Kingdom is sacred to all ghouls, and in fact such creatures sometimes attempt to create lesser versions of it on the Prime Material Plane. In the World of Greyhawk campaign setting, one such version, populated by true ghouls is located beneath the Hellfurnaces, not far from the Vault of the Drow.

Famous quotes containing the words white and/or kingdom:

    Retreat was out of hope,—
    Behind, a sealed route,
    Eternity’s white flag before,
    And God at every gate.
    Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    O for a Muse of fire, that would ascend
    The brightest heaven of invention!
    A kingdom for a stage, princes to act,
    And monarchs to behold the swelling scene!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
