Timereaver

This spell sends those within its area of effect backward or forward in time, up to five years per caster level. In effect, it encases those affected in a null-time bubble and pushes them into the Demiplane of Time. The bubble then moves along the timestream, reenters reality at the desired time, and releases the travelers. To the travelers, no time has passed.

This is the only way a chronomancer can cause others to travel extensively throughout time without actually accompanying them. This can cause a real problem for those sent to another time with no way back. Of course, if they happen to cause enough trouble to the natural order in their new time, the Guardians may show up and give them a free ride home. The chronomancer who sent them there is likely in for a visit, too.

The chronomancer can cast the spell on himself, as an easy way to travel through time with little or no risk. It is not cheap, though.

The material component is a ruby worth 10,000 gp or more, which must be crushed into dust.

Notes: Restricted to chronomancers; common.
