The Boots of Etherealness allow the wearer to become ethereal once per day for 5 rounds, making him or her immune to normal weapons, while still being able to cast spells and use weapons.

Unlike Protection From Normal Weapons, the protection granted by etherealness can be stacked with Protection From Magical Weapons.

Description[]

Why these boots were ever made has long been the subject to speculation among the sages of Candlekeep. Some suggest that a certain noblewoman was gifted them by an ethereal lover so that she could join him for a tryst. Other simply point out that the boots are useful for any mage to become intangible to attacks while devastating an opponent with offensive magic.

Bugs[]

  • The wearer is supposed to turn transparent when ethereal, but this doesn't work. Since there is no sound or portrait icon, it is difficult to know exactly when the protection wears out.
