[QUOTE="Yaarel, post: 9165720, member: 58172"] One can encounter a Ghost in the Ethereal Plane. But one is more likely to encounter the Ghost in the Shadow Plane, the Shadowfell, or in a Shadow Crossing where the veil between the Shadow Plane and the Material Plane are thin. Even when in the Ethereal Plane, it most likely arrived there via a Shadow Crossing between the Shadow and the Ethereal. 5e uses the term Undead to refer to Shadow. That is probably fine, but can clearer and more consistent. For example, rather than refer to "shadow magic", one can correctly refer to "undead magic", or necromancy. Its counterpart is Fey magic, which actually is similar except life enhancing, vivid, and vibrant. Fey and Undead/Shadow are Positive Ethereal and Negative Material, respectively. There is also such thing as Positive Material and Negative Material, but these are identical to Fey Crossings and Shadow/Undead Crossings, resepctively. The Ethereal is the realm of physical but immaterial Force. Gravity is an example of natural Ether. Telekinesis is an example of the magical manipulation of Ether. Ether is the fifth element, and the Ethereal Plane is the Fifth Elemental Plane. The Border Ethereal is the part of the Ether that is native to Material Plane, including gravity. Matter is made out of fundamental forces, and entangles ethereal forces. [/QUOTE]
