Author's Note: (WIP) Original credit and idea for this world goes to Piemcdowell. I think having a world based on the Underdark is a great idea. It's such a mysterious and dangerous alien realm, but also so full of magic and wonder. I'm going to be working on the maps to give them detail and visual reference. The Underdark is a very vertical realm and I wish we had a vertical layered mapping system to represent it, but F&F is lacking that feature so I will be using descriptions to let Franz and players know if they are in a surface, upper, mid, or lower region. The basic 5E stuff fits the Underdark pretty well but I will add in some races and classes that better fit the Underdark's lore and flavor. I intend to add monsters as well because there are so many nasty, vile things lurking in those dark depths.

Etherealness

Description

You step into the border regions of the Ethereal Plane, in the area where it overlaps with your current plane. You remain in the Border Ethereal for the duration or until you use your action to dismiss the spell. During this time, you can move in any direction. If you move up or down, every foot of movement costs an extra foot. You can see and hear the plane you originated from, but everything there looks gray, and you can't see anything more than 60 feet away. While on the Ethereal Plane, you can only affect and be affected by other creatures on that plane. Creatures that aren't on the Ethereal Plane can't perceive you and can't interact with you, unless a special ability or magic has given them the ability to do so. You ignore all objects and effects that aren't on the Ethereal Plane, allowing you to move through objects you perceive on the plane you originated from. When the spell ends, you immediately return to the plane you originated from in the spot you currently occupy. If you occupy the same spot as a solid object or creature when this happens, you are immediately shunted to the nearest unoccupied space that you can occupy and take force damage equal to twice the number of feet you are moved. This spell has no effect if you cast it while you are on the Ethereal Plane or a plane that doesn't border it, such as one of the Outer Planes.
