Astral Plane

The Astral Plane, also known as the Astral Sea, is a Plane of Existence beyond the Material Plane.

Description
The Astral Plane is one of the boundary planes that lie between many of the other realms. It is an amorphous realm where the will and the imagination have influence over the surrounding space, where one can will oneself to float and move. Some creatures whose species have been there for a long time have learned to actually shape the amorphous matter and energy into structures and objects. They therefore tend to be very psychic-oriented.

During a conversation on how to dispose of the Horn of Orcus they had acquired, Lady Allura told Vox Machina that when a Bag of Holding is destroyed, its contents jettison into the Astral Sea.

Travelers in the Astral Plane can move in any direction simply by thinking about moving. Their standard speed is three feet multiplied by their Intelligence score.

 * When Keyleth used Greater Restoration on Animus to sever Orthax's hold on Percy's soul, his soul began floating in the Astral Sea.

Campaign Two



 * The Mighty Nein found an Astral dreadnought floating in the Astral Sea while exploring the Happy Fun Ball.
 * Both Caduceus and Beau found themselves floating in the Astral Sea after reflected Banishments during the fight against Vokodo.
 * When Vokodo was killed, the Mighty Nein received a vision of his past in the Astral Sea, fleeing from a pursuing living city and ripping through the planes to escape.
 * The Tombtakers used the Immensus Gate in the ruins of Aeor to open a portal directly to the Astral Sea. The Mighty Nein pursued the Tombtakers into the portal, and found themselves directly within the sight of the living, mutated Cognouza Ward.
