Æther

Description
Æther is a substance that can be manipulated in order to produce non-traditional changes to an environment. Æther is released into the atmosphere by a series of bands, called Ley Lines that wrap around the world, outersphere, and planes. These bands are made up of Æther and are extremely dangerous if interacted with directly. It should be warned that if a person identifies an exposed Ley Line they should contact a High Arcanist immediately. Unmanipulated Æther will often have no discernible effects on the world around it, except in high concentrations. However, recent studies have shown that the natural world can be effected significantly in areas with high concentrations. These effects include the attaching of Æther to creatures and plant life as well as having changes to substances found in the area and giving the non-traditional and even potentially unique properties.
