Ethereal Sojourn Elixir

Entry Date: Month of Ethereal Luminescence, 15th Day – Eldertide Caldenar

My enduring journal,

Today, beneath the radiant illumination of the Ethereal Luminescence, I turn my focus to the mystical “Ethereal Sojourn Elixir.” This extraordinary elixir offers adventurers a glimpse into the enigmatic and ephemeral realms of the Ethereal Plane, where the boundaries of existence blur and mysteries abound.

Ethereal Sojourn Elixir: A Dance with the Ethereal

The Ethereal Plane is a mosaic of translucent wonder, where phantoms and echoes of the material world coalesce. The “Ethereal Sojourn Elixir” allows its imbiber to step between these planes of existence, experiencing the ethereal mysteries that elude the common traveler.

Personal Note: Rumors of this elixir found their way to me through a curious tome discovered in the shadowed archives of Waterdeep. The tome hinted at secret gatherings in the City of Splendors, where those with a thirst for the unknown sought to pierce the veil between worlds.

Navigating the Ethereal Realm

Upon consuming the “Ethereal Sojourn Elixir,” one’s senses attune to the ethereal tapestry. The imbiber can step onto the cusp of the Ethereal Plane, rendering themselves partially incorporeal. In this state, they can perceive both the material and ethereal realms, as if standing between two mirrors reflecting infinite possibilities.

Whispers from Beyond

As I delved deeper into the lore of this elixir, I uncovered tales of ethereal beings and specters who dwell within the plane, as well as glimpses of hidden treasures that manifest only in the ethereal state.

Ingredients

  • Essence of Ethereal Mist, collected during a celestial conjunction.
  • Luminaflower Petals, plucked from the radiant flora of the Ethereal Plane.
  • Whisperwind Essence, a gift from an enigmatic ethereal guide.
  • Veilstrike Residue, harvested from a rare encounter with a Planar Veilstrike.

The Enchanted Recipe

  1. Commence your alchemical endeavors during a celestial conjunction when the boundaries between planes waver.
  2. Carefully blend Essence of Ethereal Mist and Luminaflower Petals within a crystal vial.
  3. Infuse the elixir with the enchanting Whisperwind Essence, beckoning ethereal guides to light your path.
  4. Gently mix in Veilstrike Residue, capturing the elusive nature of the Ethereal Plane.

A Price Beyond Gold 

The “Ethereal Sojourn Elixir” is a treasure coveted by explorers and scholars alike. Its value surpasses mere coinage and cannot be measured by mundane means.

Whispers of Power

  • Effect: Upon consumption, the user gains the ability to use the Etherealness spell once, allowing them to enter the Ethereal Plane for a brief period. During this time, they can perceive both the material and ethereal worlds, witnessing ethereal creatures and objects invisible to others.
