Aincrad (WIP)

TrustyGecko

Aincrad is a massive, floating steel castle, consisting of 100 interconnected floors

Author's Note: Aincrad is the iconic setting of Sword Art Online, a colossal, floating fortress suspended in the virtual sky. Shaped like an inverted cone, it features 100 expansive floors, each representing a unique world with its own landscapes, towns, forests, mountains, and dungeons. The floors are stacked like layers, with higher levels becoming progressively more challenging to navigate and conquer. Each floor is connected by labyrinths, which players must traverse to locate and defeat powerful floor bosses to unlock access to the next level. The environment within Aincrad is immersive and diverse, ranging from tranquil villages and bustling cities to treacherous wildernesses and dark, monster-filled caverns. What makes Aincrad particularly perilous is the death game imposed on its players. Once trapped in this virtual world, players are unable to log out, and dying in the game results in death in real life. This high-stakes environment amplifies the tension as players struggle to survive, form alliances, and strive to clear all 100 floors to escape the fortress and regain their freedom. Its combination of beauty, danger, and mystery makes Aincrad a striking and unforgettable setting.

Description

Roll a d20 at the end of each of your turns for the duration of the spell. On a roll of 11 or higher, you vanish from your current plane of existence and appear in the Ethereal Plane (the spell fails and the casting is wasted if you were already on that plane). At the start of your next turn, and when the spell ends if you are on the Ethereal Plane, you return to an unoccupied space of your choice that you can see within 10 feet of the space you vanished from. If no unoccupied space is available within that range, you appear in the nearest unoccupied space (chosen at random if more than one space is equally near). You can dismiss this spell as an action. While on the Ethereal Plane, you can see and hear the plane you originated from, which is cast in shades of gray, and you can't see anything there more than 60 feet away. You can only affect and be affected by other creatures on the Ethereal Plane. Creatures that aren't there can't perceive you or interact with you, unless they have the ability to do so.
