This is something I feel myself and many others would like to have. A manual dedicated to the FR planes. This would be a great reference for afterlife and plane traveling in the realms, with the fugue plane and all the other ones detailing which gods have homes there and pretty much like the regular Manual of the Planes, except detailed moreso for the FR stuff (denizens, what afterlife is like/deity, maps, examples and what not).

All those who would like this give your opinions on the matter and what you would like to see in such a sourcebook.

The Player's Guide to FR, that comes out in March, is supposed to expand on the new planes.

Hopefully it will not be lacking in much needed detail then :P

This will be covered in more detail in the upcoming FR Player’s Guide.
It may not be all that you want, but it will be better then what we have now.
Rich Baker did mention they used a lot more space in that book on the FR cosmology then they expected.
Until that book comes out, it’s hard to say what is (will/will not be) lacking

EDIT While I was busy typeing this out, Kuje beat me to the punch, so nevermind

Note that you already have infos on FR planes in the MotP FAQ. Download it, and read for yourself.

It does give some correspondences, you'll still need the manual of the planes to get full use of it.

Actually I wasn’t happy with the FR ideas that were in this faq. It's kinda like a band aid for a gaping wound.
