=== GATEWAYS (Major)===

The character is able to generate stable corridors that connect different points on the globe. These gateways appear as shimmering portals of white or silvery energy, similar to a magical Rift. If one steps through the portal, the person is transported to the opposite portal opened by the super being. By means of one of these portals the character could travel from Paris, France to Los Angeles, California with a single step through the portal.<br>
Limitations: First, only the super being with the Gateways power can open and close these portals, but anyone can step through them once opened.<br>
Second, both gateways must be on the same planet.<br>
Third, the creator must have been to a specific location at least once before in order to mark it as a destination for one of his Gateways, and he can only mark a limited number of locations (per level of experience) as Gateway destinations.<br>
Range: Unlimited, on the same planet.<br>
Size: Circular in shape, about a 10 foot (3 m) diameter.<br>
Damage: None, cannot be used as a weapon.<br>
Duration: As long as the character concentrates (uses three melee actions per melee) the Gateway between a pair of locations remains open, but travel between the two is instantaneous, just step through. It takes one melee round (15 seconds) to open a new Gateway.<br>

Number of Portal Locations: Three at first level, plus two additional locations per experience level. This number of locations is the maximum number that the super being can keep a lock on. So, if they are all used up and he wants a dimensional bridge to a new location, he must drop one of his old places to establish a new location.<br>
Bonuses: The character is immune to any type of undesired teleportation.<br>
