[QUOTE="Yaarel, post: 8609935, member: 58172"] The concepts of the feywild and shadowfell need more clarity. They actually are aspects of the material plane. This imminence is vital for the planar concepts to function meaningfully within the cosmology. Sotospeak, these two "echo planes" are the "sounds" that are still part of the material plane. The echo planes are more than extra places to visit. They are part of the machinery of how the material plane works. Where the material plane is the realm of matter, the "echoes" refer the forces that entangle matter. So, gravity is an "echo" of a planet. The nuclear forces of material objects are also echoes, giving these echoes form and shape. To alter the force can and does affect the material object that generates it, albeit there are many forces at work that help give the object an overall stability and resilience. The echo planes and the material plane are mutually interactive. Significantly, the spiritual influences that the material plane emanates are also aspects of these echo planes. So not just material forces like gravity, but also mental forces like telekinesis are part of the fabric of the echo planes. This "weave" of forces is what weave magic manipulates. The force of an individual mind is a personal weave, an aura of mental influence that the location of a mind inherently emanates. This personal aura also contributes energy to the cosmic weave in an impersonal ambient way. The material plane is both personal mind magic (psionic and primal), and impersonal weave magic (arcane and divine). Likewise, the fey and shadow are both personal mind magic and impersonal weave magic. In other words, some fey eladrin are psionic, and some shadow ghosts are psionic. Anyone who is a mind has the potential to master the mental influences that ones own mind generates. The same rules that apply to psionic in the material plane apply to its echoes too. There are defacto two kinds of ethereal plane, shallow and deep. The shallow ethereal is actually in the material plane. [/QUOTE]
