Servants of Berad and Calar

All.

Generally smaller than a human.

Generally four-legged or winged.

Overview

Ethereals were originally creature-like spirit beings that served Berad, but when Calar rebelled, many ethereals sided with him. These ethereals are known as the unmade, since their separation from Berad changed them drastically from their original form.

Ethereals often have a connection to one of the Threads of magic and this is evident in their behaviour and appearance.
