Incorporeal Creatures

Incorporeal creatures are creatures that have no physical body. They are made of pure energy or spirit, and they can exist on the Material Plane, the Ethereal Plane, or both.
Incorporeal creatures have a number of advantages over corporeal creatures. They are immune to nonmagical bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage. They can also pass through solid objects without taking damage. However, they are also vulnerable to radiant damage, and they can be banished to the Ethereal Plane by certain spells and effects.
Incorporeal Creatures in D&D 5e
There are a number of incorporeal creatures in D&D 5e, including ghosts, spirits, and elementals. These creatures can be encountered in a variety of places, including dungeons, haunted houses, and the Ethereal Plane.
When playing against incorporeal creatures, it is important to keep their strengths and weaknesses in mind. For example, you should avoid using nonmagical weapons against them, and you should try to find ways to deal radiant damage to them. You should also be aware that they can banish you to the Ethereal Plane, so be prepared for that possibility.
Playing an Incorporeal Creature
If you are interested in playing an incorporeal creature, there are a few things you should keep in mind. First, you will need to choose a race or class that allows you to be incorporeal. Some races, such as ghosts and wraiths, are incorporeal by nature. Other races, such as humans and elves, can become incorporeal through certain spells and effects.
Second, you will need to consider the advantages and disadvantages of being incorporeal. As mentioned above, incorporeal creatures are immune to nonmagical bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage, and they can pass through solid objects without taking damage. However, they are also vulnerable to radiant damage, and they can be banished to the Ethereal Plane by certain spells and effects.
Finally, you will need to think about how your character's incorporeality will affect their interactions with the world around them. For example, incorporeal creatures cannot interact with physical objects in the same way that corporeal creatures can. They also cannot eat, drink, or sleep.
Conclusion
Incorporeal creatures can be a fun and challenging addition to any D&D campaign. Whether you are playing as an incorporeal creature or fighting against them, it is important to keep their strengths and weaknesses in mind.
