Discover the Mysteries of the Border Ethereal! — New Setting and Player Race! (Patreon)

Uncover what new creatures and denizens make up the Border Ethereal in this latest setting! Is it possible to live there? Well, yes, but it's far from easy!

As the proverbial ‘glue’ between the various inner planes, the Ethereal realm overlaps and provides a smoky, mirrored existence of its neighbors. The gray, misty expanse is nearly barren, making it hostile towards most life. Despite that hostility, tenacious humanoids, called ethereans, have managed to eke out a living in small settlements, working together under a strict social contract to ensure their collective survival. Despite this stringent lifestyle, ethereans bring life, light, and color to their blase surroundings, delighting in harmless pranks, dramatic storytelling, and costumed theatrical productions.

For travelers on the Border Ethereal, finding an etherean settlement is always a welcome sight, but is not for the faint of heart. Adventurers on the Ethereal can look forward to a multitude of possible dangers and exciting discoveries, as well as unusual rewards and interactions. Mysteries beyond measure await discovery on the wispy Ethereal Plane for anyone brave enough to venture forth.
