The Ethereal plane

The Ethereal Plane is a misty, fog-bound dimension that is sometimes described as a great ocean. Its shores, called the Border Ethereal, overlap the Material Plane and the Inner Planes, so that every location on those planes has a corresponding location on the Ethereal Plane. Certain creatures can see into the Border Ethereal (the  See Invisibility  and  True Seeing  spell grant that ability). Some magical Effects also extend from the Material Plane into the Border Ethereal, particularly Effects that use force energy such as Forcecage and  Wall of Force. The depths of the plane, the Deep Ethereal, are a region of swirling mists and colorful fogs.

The Gate system uses the Ethereal plane to connect locations and other planes of existence using a corresponding gate as a foci to connect different locations.
