The Ethereal Plane

The Material Plane, Feywild, and Shadowfell are permeated, surrounded and connected by the Ethereal Plane, a misty, fog-bound dimension that is sometimes described as a great ocean. Its shores, called the Border Ethereal, overlap the Material Plane, the Feywild and the Shadowfell, so that every location on those planes has a corresponding location on the Ethereal Plane. Certain creatures can see into the Border Ethereal. and the see invisibility and true seeing spell grant that ability. Some magical effects also extend from the Material Plane into the Border Ethereal, particularly effects that use force energy such as forcecage and wall of force. The depths of the plane, the Deep Ethereal, are a region of swirling mists and colorful fogs. The Deep Ethereal connects to the Elemental Chaos and the Astral Sea.
