Pax Materium

The Pax Materium is a contract signed by the Gods of the High Heavens and the Devils of the Nine Hells. It prevents the signatories from direct intervention on the Mortal Plane. This came about as a result of the War of Heaven, because the power unleashed on the Mortal Plane destroyed many places across the plane. Only actions by their agents, or avatar, can they now act on the Mortal Plane. The contract is kept on the Plane of Law under heavy guard, as the words written on it become reality, which makes ist an extremely dangerous item in the wrong hands.
