The Plane of Innovation
The Plane of Innovation today is an industrial land of clockworks.
A land of clockworks
The fifth part of the official Planes of Power lore series says that many gnomes who rose into a perfect state of mind with machinery have been allowed in, and there their imaginations feed on the plane itself. The machines they made have grown very powerful and run most of the work in the factory, a vast building in constant motion that turns out a machine in its central hall.

The junkyard
Outside the factory lies a yard of spare parts where many rogue clockworks live. First-series robots, thrown away, rummage through the parts for anything useful, and the machines of the junkyard serve only themselves, trying to maintain and improve their own bodies.

Inside the factory
Inside the factory the story is murkier: it seems some clockworks want to learn how humanoids work so they can improve on themselves.

Nitram Anizok’s dragon
Nitram Anizok, a gnome who has made the plane his home, is building a vast clockwork dragon, Xanamech Nezmirthafen, for reasons nobody knows but him.

The Ultimate Weapon
Giwin Mirakon, a prominent gnome of the junkyard, was sent by Rallos to have the factory build a machine of massive destruction, and is eager to get back to the battlefields of the Plane of War. That ultimate weapon, the Manaetic Behemoth, is finished and is being powered in its lab, where power carriers bring it energy.
