The Disembodied

To cast one’s mind out amongst the outer planes is the dream of many an arcane spellcaster. In recent memory, none have come closer to that dubious honor than the lost city of Ulmyr’s Gate. Founded by a group of ambitious wizards who chafed under the limitations imposed upon them by government bureaucracy, Ulmyr’s Gate boasted free study for all mages who sought sanctuary within its walls. The Great College quickly became a lodestone for mages of every stripe from across the empire, and for a brief moment there existed a golden age of magic.
That dream came crashing down one night when the founding mages of Ulmyr’s Gate attempted a massive conjuration ritual intended to part the veil and create a permanent portal to the Ethereal Plane. It didn’t work. Instead their magic caused a massive rift in the very fabric of reality, and in an instant the entire city tipped into the void between worlds. The entire city was presumed dead, the Arcanist Inquisition railed against the hubris of those tampering in things man was not meant to know, and life in the Empire moved on.
Years later, stories surfaced of strange people being sighted in the region where Ulmyr’s Gate once stood. These people seemed oddly blurred or indistinct, and some reports said they vanished right in front of witnesses’ eyes. Gradually it became clear that these poor souls were the survivors of the Ethereal Rift, now trapped between worlds and trying to retain their tenuous grasp on the Material Plane.

Fade Away. On your turn, as an action, you can fade from the Material Realm and disappear into the ethereal plane. While you remain faded away, you cannot interact with the Material Plane, and effects on the Material Plane cannot interact with you, including spells and creatures. However, you can move and hear as normal, and see everything in shades of grey. This effect lasts for 1 minute, or until you use a bonus action to end it. When the effect ends, you reappear in the Material Plane, in the closest unoccupied space you disappeared from. Once you use this feature, you cannot use it again until you complete a long rest.
