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:

    Every time I embrace a black woman I’m embracing slavery, and when I put my arms around a white woman, well, I’m hugging freedom. The white man forbade me to have the white woman on pain of death.... I will not be free until the day I can have a white woman in my bed.
    Eldridge Cleaver (b. 1935)

    O thou undaunted daughter of desires!
    By all thy dower of lights and fires;
    By all the eagle in thee, all the dove;
    By all thy lives and deaths of love;
    By thy large draughts of intellectual day,
    And by thy thirsts of love more large then they;
    By all thy brim-fill’d Bowls of fierce desire,
    By thy last Morning’s draught of liquid fire;
    By the full kingdom of that final kiss
    That seiz’d thy parting Soul, and seal’d thee his;
    Richard Crashaw (1613?–1649)
