Subject: Chronomage Teleportation System


After long negotiations, the towns of Elanthia have agreed to allow the Chronomages, masters of the magical domains of travel and time, to operate within each town. As a result, the Chronomages are pleased to offer cross-realm travel services for the low, low price of 100,000 silvers per trip. Every 90 minutes, the Chronomages will transport their customers to any town in their network. Due to concerns that the towns have with possibly unscrupulous individuals rapidly moving through the realms, however, each individual may only travel once every 48 hours.

  • Similar to the way that the Glaesen Star operates, characters may purchase tickets for a trip and go do whatever they like in the meantime until the Chronomages actually perform the teleportation. Players can READ the tickets to see how much time they have before they need to be back in the porting area. This should free players up so there is not a lot of dead time waiting for a trip.
  • Also similar to the Glaesen Star, characters may purchase a ticket and log off in the porting area. If, upon their return, the Chronomages have operated the transport in the interim, the characters will log in at their destinations.
  • Being somewhat less than passionate in adherence to the law themselves, the Chronomages have been known to provide... possibly unscrupulous individuals... with additional teleportations within a given 48 hour period. However, the cost for these 'off the books' deals is rumored to be 3x the normal transport price.

The Chronomage teleportation system is not yet released. It will be released this quarter. It will not be released in Platinum, as it is obviated there by Platinum's current Chronomage portal system.
