Stabilize Chaos

This spell was specifically developed by pianewalkers for use in the churning maelstrom of Limbo. The spell allows a character who is concentrating on maintaining a safe pocket of stable reality to cease concentration yet maintain the stability. That is, the spell serves as a substitute for concentration, at least for a while. (Thus, this spell is virtually never used by anarchs, who can maintain the terrain without concentration.)

Stabilize chaos does not increase the size of a terrain pocket a character can stabilize, nor can it initialize stability. It is only used for maintaining already stabilized pockets.

The stabilized area can be of any size. Obviously, this spell allows travelers a brief rest from concentration while on Limbo. After casting this spell, a character can relax, sleep, study, or do anything else she wishes without worrying about the native chaos. Naturally, this spell is effective only on Limbo or on chaos-stuff that has somehow been taken out of Limbo.
