Access to these dimensions are for the most part up to the gamemaster, some possible routes are included for some of them..This is an edited for content copy if you want to see the (offencive to some peeps), clicklink
1 Shangri-La
Located in a remote section of Tibet, Shangri-La is a paradise with a dark side. The dimension consists of a large Tibetan village surrounded by farms and sheep.The village is filled with temples and homes, with only a few shops. The residents are immortal, happy, and free from the stresses of modern society.
The villagers manifest various superhuman abilities.
Many of the monks possess super natural abilities with martial arts and can pass some of these secrets to the PCs.Other Monks can speak with the dead. Some others can heal and (depending on the campaign) raise the dead.
On the outskirts of the dimension are passages to Hell and the land of the dead-keep out.
More correctly called Shamballa
2 Aushwitz-Berkenau
3 Jake the Road
A 30 mile stretch of old US highway 66 in Arizona that is sentient.If you travel the whole 30 miles in a US made red convertable at exactly 66.6 miles an hour you will cross onto Jake. The road will at first give you normal exits(usually Barstow and San Bernadino). Later it will give you exotic exits(Paris or Tokyo). Then the fun comes.Canals of Mars. The Roman Senate. The Battle of New Orleans.Wherever and whenever you want to go. As Jake becomes used to you he can tailor exits for where you want to go.(This is my version of Danny the Street from DC comics-I strongly advise checking out the wikipedia listing)
4 Shadows of Nagasaki
A burning hell filled with the ever dying zombies of the nuclear apocalypse. The residents are most hostile. In the last few years the spirits of American GIs whose lives were saved by the bomb, have come here to save the souls of those who died for them.

8 The Hole of Moscow
Similar to Wilde Berkeley, The Hole was formed by the KGBs experiments with drugs, esp and Black Magic. It is a Dark realm of shadows and thoughts given bodies. Not as trippy as Wilde, but dangerous from the hostility it was born of.
