From then on, if time wasn't a factor they'd travel overland.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"> The travel cleric got into a most excellent habit of carefully familiarizing himself with waypoints which he made into shrines; for more successful teleports.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"> Exploring overland (they were the advance pathfinders of an army) the party would teleport to specific points viewable on the horizon; aproximately 25 miles away.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"> The large bags of holding are made for the teleporting party.</li> </ul>In regards to defending specific sites v teleport; i.e. where significant powers with a reasonable arcane knowledge reside that wish to control visitors; I used forbidance, dimensionally anchored (un)hallowed ground, or I simply invoked the traps formula.I used the traps rule for constructing areas with permanent dimensional anchors quite a bit because it was not divine magic specific. That said you have to look at the cost to craft and compare it to the npc. Sure, they may have inherited a site that is anchored (which is therefore subject to local knowledge+) but using the traps formula requires the npc to have serious wealth at their disposal.Just to beef up the non-spellcasters, I put in portals to allow teleportation of a limited kind.Anyhoo...</blockquote>
