[QUOTE="neogod22, post: 7456621, member: 6857879"] I imagine traveling through the ethereal is like this for creatures that can only exist in 1 plane at a time (PCs). Wherever you enter would be the border ethereal (the building you're in, or room, or any other nearby structure). You have awareness of the area and everything looks greyed out. Any farther becomes deep ethereal. Everything looks like a fog, and the characters have no way to navigate through it. The only ways to properly navigate through it, is with a guide who can exist in multiple planes at once, or a creature that can at least see in both the the Ethereal and prime at the same time. Also, while traveling through the deep, they may encounter creatures that are native to the plane, or creatures passing through it. Because the Ethereal plane is what connects the inner planes, distance and direction are real. When you want to leave, you step back into the border ethereal and then back into the prime.The danger of traveling the Etheral blindly (besides the creatures) is that not only can you not end up in your untended location, but you can also land on another world or plane.
