Re: [RPM] Thoughts and clarifications
 

I would tend towards the last one. Now, if someone finds your pocket dimension (with a Sense Crossroads effect, probably), and deliberately attacks it (Destroy Crossroads), you might be in trouble.
You could certainly create an extradimensional space big enough for a ship and linked to an item via either method, but it would need more area/payload.

This spell locates the nearest spirituous liquors (the caster can exclude known sources), and allows the caster to reach out an arm and bring the container to his location (so long as it's no larger than a large jug).

Typical Casting: Greater Create Crossroads (6) + Lesser Sense Matter (2) + Subject weight (20 lbs) (1) + range (3 miles) (21). 90 energy (30x3)

Re: [RPM] Thoughts and clarifications
 

Well, the Voyageur Canoe is 35ft long, and weighs up to 5.5 tons fully loaded

So something like this?

Ship in a Bottle - meant to be cast on a bottle, but any container will work. It will allow big things to be placed in the bottle (such as a small ship, like the 35ft long, 5.5 ton Voyageur Canoe). It does not actually need to be able to fit through the opening, things passing in and out warp handily, so a ship can be placed in the bottle despite size differences.

This Casting: Greater Create Crossroads (6) + Greater Transform Crossroads (8) + Duration, 1 month (11) + Subject Weight, 5 tons (6) + Area Of Effect, 15 yards (10). 205 energy (41×5).

Not sure about how to handle 'it can handle size changes so the ship need not actually fit inside the bottle opening', figured Greater Transform Crossroads handles it for a proper wormhole effect

Re: [RPM] Thoughts and clarifications
 

Per Ghostdancer's #18 in this thread you'd also want a Lesser Create Crossroads effect to link the extradimensional space to the bottle, but that looks good to me otherwise.

Re: [RPM] Thoughts and clarifications
 

Currently rather beyond Jaina's skills, but something to strive for sometime. And to look out for a grimoire for

The Greater Transform Crossroads seem the way to handle the bottle/ship size discrepancy?

Re: [RPM] Thoughts and clarifications
 

Hmmm. I think that if you were to destroy the anchor it'd go adrift in whatever plane it was in (or near) until a Greater Sense Crossroads effect were used in combination with a Greater Restore Crossroads effect to restore it's connection to our reality.

I don't see why not. Path of Crossroads is all about bending space and creating spatial shortcuts. So yeah, that can work.




Heh. Hobo Bill LIVES.

This is funny as hell. You get points for this. LOL.


That'd require a Greater Transform effect which you have. You'd need more weight to affect your 5.5 ton example.

You still need more weight to cover a 5.5 ton vessel.

Re: [RPM] Thoughts and clarifications
 

I hope this is not necromantic of the Evil Sort, but I wonder, is this spell correct?

Jaina the Mageling was asked by a friend to make said friends room bigger, as said friend looted a dragon sized cloud mattress which was awesome, but also bigger than their entire room at the Adventurer's Guild

Supersize My Room
Spell Effects: Greater Strengthen Crossroads.
Inherent Modifiers: Subject Weight + Area Of Effect + Duration.
Greater Effects: 1 (×3).

Supersize My Room - This spell makes a room bigger, cast usually on the door of the room, it conveniently expands the interior dimensions. Often thought to be a variant of the Hideaway spell.
This is a popular spell and grimoires are often readily available, as very many magic students wish to use said grimoires to make their rooms at school bigger.

This Casting: Greater Strengthen Crossroads (3) + Subject Weight, 5 tons (6) + Area Of Effect, 10 yards (8) + Duration, 1 years (22). 117 energy (39×3).

Re: [RPM] Thoughts and clarifications
 

Pretty sure that you need a create crossroads effect instead of a strengthen.

Re: [RPM] Thoughts and clarifications
 

I had thought that since I wasn't trying to create an apartment from nothing, rather just make an existing apartment bigger that Strengthen would be appropriate, but could go with Create if that would work better

Re: [RPM] Thoughts and clarifications
 

I would rule that the apartment is 'real' space, so to create new pseudo spave you need a create crossroads effect. If you already had an extradimensional space hanging around for some reason, that would be another story.
