Errata

- Behaviors: Loci in Entities conveys a sense for exact distances. Two Objects with Loci are capable of sustaining permanent Exodus Portals cast between them. Icol prevents Portals from being traversed or cast; Icol does not mutually annihilate with its opposing Boon of Loci unless Conditionally manipulated to do so.
- Spatial senses are accurate to as small as the stated unit of measurement, meaning they may be used as a natural in-built measuring stick for Trade Skills.
- If taken beyond the maximum distance, an Exodus Portal within an Object will snap shut, ejecting anything within its threshold.
- Contact with a Portal means attempting to push the affected Object or Entity through it or against its rim.
- Destroyed Portals in Objects may be renewed or repurposed by an appropriately skilled Exodii.
- Exodii have a sense that opening a Portal within view of an equivalent-tier Icol Mirror wouldn't work when attempting to cast; this would not drain their Spell Reserves.
- It should be assumed that most civilizations have a network of several heavily guarded Ascended-tier Icol mirrors pointing up at both the skies above and the horizon in every cardinal direction unless otherwise noted by a local Storyteller. Message them if you are not sure.
- Conditions: Loci / Icol are only active in within or in the hands of Galsterei. Icol does not mutually annihilate with its opposing Boon of Loci unless Conditionally manipulated to do so.

Description
|
Ridhinne
|
Confers immunity to Planar Sickness when travelling between Planes. Objects appear translucent as if blurry, over-exposed windows to a location within regular view of the craftsman; this may be used by Exodii to Portal to that point of view, but does not otherwise convey what is happening in real-time.
