Allows the caster ( and any other the caster wishes at the time of casting) OR ANYONE (you may choose to limit, but it is either limited, or open to all.) to pass from one mirror to another. This ritual is confusing to anyone looking as the mirrors reflect not what is near them, but what the opposite mirror sees. The effect is almost like a doorway.


System: as with the previous rituals, this ritual must be cast using a polished silver objects. the size of the objects is up to the caster, but the edges are rigid. The exception is that due to the amount of glyphs the cast must write, the minimum size is about the size of a human hand. at this size the caster is at a difficulty 9 to make the dex crafts roll to write the glyphs on the back. This difficulty is reduced by on for each foot added to the size of the mirror (square). the difficulty cannot go below 6. At the time of creation the caster must decide if the doorway is locked or unlocked. if it is locked the caster, and anyone else written in, will be able to use it, but to all others it will be blocked (as if they were a thrown object). if the caster chooses, she can create an unlocked doorway. this means that ANYONE can will themselves through. this cannot be changed at a later date. When caster casts the ritual he links two mirrors. These mirrors act as a portal. One reflects what the other sees this means when anyone looks into one they will see the other ( creating the effect that it is a simple doorway). If the mirror is destroyed in any way while the caster is standing between the mirrors, the caster will take 7 levels of lethal damage. Note the effect is canceled if the mirror breaks. The use of the mirror does require an act of will though it would be considered a free action. A person can take any object they can carry through the mirror (or unconscious person) they cannot throw an object through. Any thrown object will react to the mirror as if the mirror is not enchanted, with the exception of the thrown object does not have a reflection.
