Magnificent Mansion

Magnificent Mansion
Ritual Rank 8 [Portative]
Prerequisites: Eldritch Rank 7
Potency: 40
Focus: Diamond looking glass, in a golden frame etched with magical runes, and ringed with Rubies, Emeralds and Sapphires. [Rare, Value: 5000 gp].
Cost: 8 Resolve Allocation
Cast Time: 1 phase
Duration: 1 day per Eldritch Rank or until dismissed, dispelled, or disrupted.
Effect: As you chant, the looking glass widens, creating an extra-dimensional portal to transport you (and your guests) to an elaborate mansion of your design.
  • It has multiple rooms of significant size and can generally be laid out according to your wishes upon casting the spell (though limited in size to a 25,000 square foot area).
  • Furnishings within the mansion are of exquisite quality, its pantry is stocked with enough mundane food and beverages for a banquet serving 100 people, and a cast of 10 unseen servants will attend to you and your guests during your stay.
  • The mansion is not affected by temperature and environmental conditions on the opposite side of the portal, always staying warm and comfortable inside.

When the ritual is complete, a faint shimmer appears within the (now widened) golden frame, signifying that the portal is open.

  • Only those who you designate may enter, others encountering a resistance as if pushing against a solid object.
  • Once inside, the portal may be closed at your command, becoming invisible to the outside world.
  • The portal may be opened from within the mansion at will, allowing you and your guests to exit (though it may only be closed and opened again from the inside).

When this ritual ends, any creatures or outside objects remaining within are expelled harmlessly through the portal.
