They are part of the astral plane.The Players Handbook describes outer planes as follows. Importantly, there is no "distance" or space for a material rock to exist there. Rocks take up space, and matter takes up space, but there is no actual space. Things are as far or near as the conceptual, semiotic, similarity. The aster is a mind scape, not a physical scape."... The Outer Planes provide direction , thought, and purpose for construction [of the multiverse]. ... When discussing anything ... , the language used must be highly metaphorical. ... Homes are not literally "places" at all, but exemplify the idea that the Outer Planes are realms of thought and spirit. ... One can imagine the perceptible part of the Outer Planes as a sort of border region, while extensive spiritual regions lie beyond ordinary sensory experience. Even in those perceptible regions, appearances can be deceptive. Initially, many of the Outer Planes appear hospitable and familiar to natives of the Material Plane. But the landscape can change at the whims of the powerful forces that live on the Outer Planes. The desires of the mighty forces that dwell on these planes can remake them completely, effectively erasing and rebuilding existence itself to bettcr fulfilltheir own needs. Distance is a virtually meaningless concept on the Outer Planes. The perceptible regions of the planes often seem quite small, but they can also stretch on to what seems like infinity."Among the astral dominions, there is no distance, there is no space, there is no "place". It is a "thought" scape. There cannot be matter. A rock of material matter takes up space thus cannot exist there. Only thoughts can exist there.</blockquote>
