Astrology
Difficulty Class: 10
Channeling Time: 1 standard action
Range: 10 ft.
Effect: One gate
Duration: 1 round
You concentrate your bond to the Astral Plane, holding the endless silver expanse in your thoughts. You then draw a circle in the air, which forms a circular, silver gate.
You channel a gate from the Astral Plane, similar to a color pool, except that it can only teleport you to another place on the plane you’re currently in. The gate is large enough to allow passage for one Medium creature at a time, and leads to an area within range that you designate. You always arrive at the exact spot desired—whether by simply visualizing the area or by stating direction, such as “30 feet forward” for “60 feet downward”. Each creature that passes through the gate can bring along objects as long as their weight doesn’t exceed your maximum load.
If you designate an area that is already occupied by a solid body, this incantation simply fails.
Enhance: For every 2 points by which you increase the DC, the gate lasts for 1 additional round. The number of rounds may not exceed your channeling ability modifier, however.
For every 2 points by which you increase the DC, the gate’s size increases by 1 size category.
For every 5 points by which you increase the DC, the range is multiplied by 10.
If you increase the DC by 10, you can designate a place in the Astral Plane as the destination.
