	'''Outsider''' is a piece of gamer slang that originated from [[Dungeons & Dragons 3rd Edition]], where it was the creature type used to refer to any and all creatures native to [[plane]]s other than the [[Prime Material Plane]]. This handy way to collectively refer to [[Angel]]s, [[Fiend]]s, and all of the other, weirder planar monsters (Except [[Elemental]]s, which are their own type if you aren't playing [[Pathfinder]]) meant it was readily absorbed into the gamer lexicon. Whilst creatures such as [[fey]] and [[aberration]]s were their own distinct creature types in 3e, they are also sometimes lumped under the Outsider moniker in casual conversation, since in many campaign settings they fit the basic definition of "creature from another plane" (aka the [[Plane of Faerie]] and the [[Far Realm]]).		'''Outsider''' is a piece of gamer slang that originated from [[Dungeons & Dragons 3rd Edition]], though technically originated in 2e under the strange name '''Planar Monster''', where it was the [[Type\|creature type]] used to refer to any and all creatures native to [[plane]]s other than the [[Prime Material Plane]].

	A notable subtype of Outsider is the '''Native Outsider'''; this represents a creature with a particularly strong tie to both the Prime Material and another plane. This means it can be the target of [[Raise Dead]] spells, unlike normal Outsiders.
