Color Pool Travel

Post by perseid »

Something sort of neat in the Forgotten Realms in 3e is that spells like Planeshift and Astral Projection don't function as direct transit spells like they do in the base game. In the Forgotten Realms these spells actually have an intermediary point on the Astral Plane the caster i shunted into where they encounter pools of color that lead to their destination as well as pools that lead other places as well. I'm not sure what exact role these would fill but I think it'd be neat mode of travel to add to the server whether by way of new spells that shunted Arelithians into a localized color pool collection on the Astral plane or through the addition of gates/npcs that would thrust players into an astral realm with color pools. There could even be canonically appropriate monster encounters if the astral region was large enough like githyanki.
