Welcome, reader. The Astralen is a foundation devoted to studying interplanar travel and teleportation. Come, and present your ideas to unite the planes.

Compendium:
Pernament teleportation circles

A cloaked elf calls the Astralen meeting to order. "The first order of business is the teleportation discussion. Does anyone have a new idea on making teleportation easier for the masses?

How would the common folk afford it? That is the real issue.

(I take it you wish to join, right?)

"Hmmm. Membership in this foundation may help me in my studies of the Planes. If I may, I wish to join."

I doubt any of the common folk could afford much more than food.

Yes, and we wish to make teleportation still affordable for them.

Then, I suppose, you could set up a Teleportation Circle and cast Permanency on it. Then, you could charge the common folk whatever you wanted to use it.

"Thief! NEVER take a Wizard's spellbook!" Dyne then bops Turalisj on the head with his quarterstaff.

What's our next project? And are we participating in the Guild Wars?

I can't believe we started losing this one too. Come on everybody! Who doesn't want to learn more about the planes?!

"Teleportation is not needed. We have ways of traveling through planes and to anywhere we wish on the 'material' plane. These are the Skygge gates. All lead to the shadow gates of Dromkar, where many portals stand. Each leading to a different area of the world, or even a different plane. Once one is set up, it is very difficult to destroy. They stand in many places, hidden from mortal eyes. Though they were once open to mortal man before he turned on us."

"Interesting. I would love to see these Skygge gates." The voice comes from Dyne, but it sounds slightly different than usual, somehow.

And you are... what? The common folk I'm talking about are mortal men.

OOC: Is anyone here interested in that Inter-foundation tournament? I would like the Astralen to enter.

If we can get members to join. I'm already part of the IFWG, so we need new members. I'll see if I can get more people to join. Perhaps we can get some from the Children of the Planes? Or maybe an alliance with them?

Unmelding from a shadow from behind a painting on the wall a shadow slides down the wall and takes on a human form as it reaches the floor

I am Kayne Shadowborne. I would like membership to this Guild. I would suggest what is called on my plane.... a scrying pool!

It serves as a channel for scrying and when a reasonable spot to teleport to has been found you can activate the pool to take you there.

:D

Isn't there a mirror that does exactly that?

Interesting. Can we make a scrying pool in a city, though?

PS. necrodude, would you like to enter the tournament?
