Capabilities[]

The user can create, shape and manipulate Nether, the "chthonian element" and the substance that both makes up the Underworld, a subterranean dimension where all souls go when they pass on, and allow/causes things to wither, die, and be destroyed. Nether is very similar to Aether “the celestial element” in that it is from a plane that exists between the planes of both matter, and energy.

Like Aether, nether is a spiritual element, which means it cannot be perceived by any physical sense. It represents the destructive dark part of reality and as such all such forces are derived from it. The only way nether can be physically seen is if it were mixed with an element of the physical realm, with darkness, fire, or earth being the most common choices.

Limitations[]

  • May be countered by aether-based Powers.
  • As a chaotic, chthonic force, the reckless manipulation can risk the nature around the user.

Universe Variations[]

  • In certain variations, Nether is unofficially called as the "sixth" of the five Classical Elements.
  • Chthonian, as related to Nether forces, refers itself to the underground and the dead, as "Chthonians" were the opposite pole to the celestial, Olympian gods in the greek mythology, inhabiting underworld.
