![]() ![]() The planeshifter is immune to the "normal" fires of the Elemental Plane of Fire, but fire-based attack forms and unusually fiery areas there still affect him. Any effect that would be negated by the avoid planar effects spell is negated by the planar survival ability as well. Planar Survival (Ex): A planeshifter of 3rd level or higher becomes attuned to the nature of the planes he visits and personally immune to their natural planar effects. This ability otherwise functions as the spell cast by a sorcerer of a level equal to the planeshifter's highest caster level. He may do this once per planeshifter level per day. ![]() If a character had more than one arcane spellcasting class before he became a planeshifter, he must decide to which class he adds each level of planeshifter for the purposes of determining spells per day when he adds the new level.Īnalyze Portal (Sp): At 2nd level, a planeshifter gains the ability to use analyze portal as a spell-like ability. This essentially means that he adds the level of planeshifter to the level of whatever other spellcasting class the character has, then determines spells per day accordingly. He does not, however, gain any other benefit a character of that class would have gained. Thus, when a new level is gained (except for 1st, 5th, and 9th), the character gains new spells per day as if he had also gained a level in whatever arcane spellcasting class he belonged to before he added the prestige class. Spells per Day: A planeshifter continues training in magic as well as gaining power in the planes. At 8th level, the planeshifter can use this ability at will. Plane Shift (Sp): A planeshifter has the ability to plane shift (as the spell cast by a sorcerer of his character level) once per day. ![]() If you cast Plane Shift or Gate (or access the Deep Ethereal in another way) you can use these curtains to travel to the Border Ethereal of the Shadowfell, Feywild, or the Elemental Planes.Weapon and Armor Proficiency: Planeshifters gain no proficiency with any weapon or armor. The color of the curtain indicates the plane whose Border Ethereal the curtain conceals.Ī caster of Etherealness does not enter the Deep Ethereal, so they would not see the curtains. Scattered throughout the plane are curtains of vaporous color, and passing through a curtain leads a traveler to a region of the Border Ethereal connected to a specific Inner Plane, the Material Plane, the Feywild, or the Shadowfell. In the scenario above, there could simply be a portal to Celestia at the top of a mountain both in the Ethereal Plane and on the Material Plane Specifically, there are Ethereal Curtains in the Deep Ethereal that act as portals to other Inner Planes.įrom the DMG on the Ethereal Plane (emphasis mine): The Ethereal Plane can have portals to any other plane of existence. There aren't any specific limitations for which plane can have which portals. This shows that a portal to the Outer Planes can exist on the Material Plane. For example, a portal to the heavenly mountain of Celestia might be located on a mountain peak. Most portals exist in distant locations, and a portal’s location often has thematic similarities to the plane it leads to. “Portal” is a general term for a stationary interplanar connection that links a specific location on one plane to a specific location on another. There is a second part to your question though, can the Ethereal Plane contain portals to other planes?įrom the DMG on Planar Travel (emphasis mine): You could rule it so that the Etherealness spell would break, trapping a character in one of these other planes. So it would be tricky to determine how the end of the spell would work in these situations. There is no mapping of locations between the Outer Planes and the Elemental Planes as there is with the Feywild and the Shadowfell. It becomes trickier if you enter the Elemental Planes or any of the Outer Planes during your time in the Border Ethereal. At the end of the duration of the spell, you could return to that corresponding location on the Material Plane. I'd probably rule it so that you can use Etherealness to enter the Border Ethereal, and then travel to the Feywild or the Shadowfell. There is probably a reasonable middle ground The description of the spell seems to suggest that you must remain in the Border Ethereal for the duration of the spell, whereas the wording in the PHB suggests that once you are in the Border Ethereal you are free to explore into other planes as you wish. Īs you point out, the description in the PHB states:Įtherealness allows adventurers to enter the Ethereal Plane and travel from there to any of the planes it touches-the Shadowfell, the Feywild, or the Elemental Planes. You remain in the Border Ethereal for the duration or until you use your action to dismiss the spell. The wording on the Etherealness spell is contradictory ![]()
