[QUOTE="Benjamin Pass, post: 6626571, member: 6794231"] The thing is, what appears to be a single mote of light standing on the surface of the Earth could actually be a galaxy composed of billions of individual stars, so pointing to an individual mote of light and saying I want to teleport "there" could simply teleport you somewhere within that galaxy billions of light-years away. You'd still have to check out the closest stars first if you want to avoid getting hopelessly lost. As far as star-charts are concerned, the PCs who are undertaking this adventure are something of pioneers in this field so they will be the one to take part in creating star maps of the galaxy which hosts the familiar D&D world of Oerth/Greyhawk. Once they finish mapping out their home galaxy, they are of course welcome to move onto other galaxies, but I find it unlikely they will even want to as a single galaxy contains billions of stars and virtually limitless adventure.
