Spell of Evacuation (S-2) RANGE: 50 feet DURATION: immediate EXPERIENCE MULTIPLE: 300 BASE CHANCE: 30% EFFECTS: The nomad is able to quickly teleport out of an area and return to the portal.  The spell cannot be used if there is no portal constructed and others can be evacuated only if the posses a ring (cost 5 TG) made by the nomad.  The nomad may not evacuate more than 1 other person +1 per every 4 ranks.  Targets of the evacuate spell must be within range and possess a ring in order to benefit from this spell.  This spell may be quick cast if the nomad spends 6 FT to cast the spell, of course they can do it normally if they reach rank 20 in this spell.  This spell only works if the nomad and friends are on the plane where the portal exists. 3. Point of return spell (S-3) RANGE: see effects below DURATION: immediate EXPERIENCE MULTIPLE: 300 BASE CHANCE: 40% EFFECTS: This spell allows a nomad and others to return to the point of an evacuation if they cast this spell within 2 hours + 1 per every two ranks of the spell. 4.

The door is 6 by 6 and the dimensions may be changed by 1 foot per rank.  The door may have any orientation that the nomad desires.   The spot of the door can be visualized by the nomad and he will arrive there as long as there is nothing solid in the space other wise the spell fails although FT will still be spent. The psionicist may carry up to 500 pounds of non- living matter, or 250 of living matter through the “door”.  Just a note, a person coming through a dimension door may not attack that pulse, but may still surprise targets if they fail to notice the point of arrival. 5.

The teleportation is instantaneous and allows the nomad to move or function as normal as the beginning of a pulse.  The spell does not function the first pulse it is cast, but may used at any time it is still enduring.  The spell may only be used once and then dissipates.  The nomad or person teleporting can carry 50 pounds of weight +50 per rank in the spell.  The location teleported to must be familiar to the nomad, and must have been visited by him, seen from a distance or mapped out by using the ritual of mapping.  If cast forcibly against another they may resist it normally.   6.

Ritual of Planar Travel (R-1)        The nomad must use a constructed portal to pick any place known to him by personal travel, study or detailed mapping provided by a sage.  The base chance of success is 50% +2% per rank. (+2% for every rank of the portal) and takes 1 hour per person traveling. Some areas of planes are warded against planar travel so it is pointless to attempt travel there.  The characters that travel through the portal have an unconscious link with the portal and may retreat to home if they do so within 1 hour + 1 per every two ranks in the ritual.   This ritual has an experience point multiple of 750.
