im making an elf called a dream elf and had an idea for when they trance their soul can enter the ethereal plane(becuase in dnd lore the ethereal plane is were dreams happen)
would that be op in any way and how could i make the ability to make it balanced
Well elves only trance during long rest and I'm assuming at the end of the trance they return to the material plane so no I dont see too many ways that could go wrong. But I could also be wrong
Id say it depends on how they view the real world in the Ethereal Plane. If they can see everything in the material plane from the ethereal plane and move around freely, then I would say that it is OP because the elf could use the duration of a long rest (8 hours) to scout out a nearby castle, dungeon, or camp without any risk to their person or party. I could see it working out fine if there is a limited distance they can travel from their body (maybe 100 feet starting out, with the distance growing as they level up).
