[[File:Ethereal_race.png|60px]]

Walking lightbulbs that are named after celestial bodies, ethereals are uniquely electrical beings. Liquid electricity pumps through their veins, they sustain themselves by feeding on sources of electricity, and they permanently glow in lovely colors.

'''Diet'''
* Likes: Snowflake Ethereal food (High-power energy bars, [[Food#Burgers|empowered burgers]]). Electricity, whether through cyborg rechargers, electric shocks, APCs, or indirectly through lightbulbs.
* Dislikes: Everything else.

'''Gameplay'''
Convince a traitor to emag you to become a very slow, very boring disco ball. Die to a fireaxe, laugh at laser guns. Starve because the SM didn't get started and touch it to end the pain. Name yourself Funi XD before getting banned. Scream when someone breaks your revive crystal. 

'''Benefits'''
* Forms reviving crystal if left undisturbed after dying. This takes a few minutes, is very visible, and is quite easy to stop, but heals most harm.
* Naturally illuminate their surroundings like a glowstick. Shrinks when at low charge or hurt.
** Can be EMP'd and emagged to affect their glow.
* Deal burn damage instead of brute damage when punching things.
* Slightly resistant to electricity damage.
* Much less sensitive to hot temperature (take burn damage at 423+ instead of 340+)
* Much higher body temperature than humans. You're nearly guaranteed to give warm hugs (better moodlet than normal hugs)
* Strong positive moodlet when properly charged

'''Drawbacks'''
* Their glow can't be turned off without an EMP.
* Can only regain nutrition by entering a cyborg recharger, touching lightbulbs, touching an APC on {{Combat_Mode}}, or through special Ethereal food.
* Take an additional 25% brute damage from all sources.
* Not human under default AI laws.
* They get toxin damage and a bad moodlet when too overcharged or undercharged.
* More sensitive to cold temperature (cold limit at 283 instead of humans' 270)
* After reviving from a crystal, they get a [[Guide to Traumas|permanent trauma]].

'''Where to find them:'''
* Everywhere but command, most likely at [[Robotics]] and [[Engineering]].
