Description

The shaper forces space and time to bend between his current location and any point he can see. This allows the shaper and any nearby targets of his choice to step between the two points as if there was no more than 2m distance between them. Taking this step is very disorienting however, and many who travel this way arrive on their knees, completely disoriented. The shaper can hold the fold in space to remain as long as he concentrates. If the shaper is familiar with any structure at the location, and there is a direct, unobstructed line to that location, he could appear inside the structure (having passed through an open door or window), even if he can’t see those details directly. If the shaper has access to pure cosmic energy he can enhance thsi spell further. Each point of akyrus aspected Essence (or pure Qliphotic elemental chaos) used to deepen the fold doubles the distance.
