Z Wrote:A lot of speculation and some canon stuff
Not everyone can use an aethryte, for starters. Food buffs being canonical is... questionable, at best. While I won't doubt that casters are manipulating aether, saying that ALL martial classes do (with or without training- not an ounce of aetherial anything is talked about in the paladin storylines, and the DRG storyline is specifically draconic power amping your abilites). Assuming Warrior's Inner Beast is aether is conjecture, and citing the DBZ power aura hardly means anything (except maybe that they were inspired by the shounen template DBZ iconography).
Bard songs might be aether. They might also just be morale bonuses. Aether is not the force, and while it's present in everything, it isn't everything.
Following that, the only people who have to "accept as part and parcel" that everyone's got an inner beast chi dragon are the people playing at those ridiculous powerlevels. Some of us just play people, you know.
