Sungate

The sungate is a powerful teleportation device used by the Sun Mages to achieve secret movement from one point in the Astromundi Cluster to another.

The spell must be cast upon a crystal portal, usually in the shape of a door. The portal can be no more than 5 feet x 5 feet x 5 feet in size, and must be worth at least 5,000 gold bars. The spell takes one month of preparation to cast, and, once cast, lasts for one year for each level of the caster.

Once a sungate has been created, its magic works without fail so long as it is kept in the light of the sun, Firefall. Sungates that are not illuminated by the rays of that sun do not function; the portal requires that sun's energy in conjunction with the magic of this spell to power it. Wizards can pass from one sungate to another that they are aware of, anywhere within the sphere. There is no chance for failure, the wizard always arrives at the desired portal, as long as that portal is functioning. If it is not functioning, the wizard will remain at the starting point.

The wizard must be standing in full sunlight to cast this spell.

Notes: Known to the Sun Mages of the Astromundi Cluster and usable only in that setting.
