Order of Travelers

While most wizards learn their magic through the reading of books or lessons of a teacher, some prefer a more hands-on approach. The wonders of magic are something to behold anywhere and everywhere you go, and as such, these wanderers learn magic from sources unique to their location. Coming across the strange fey within the deep forests- seeing how they harness nature to their will, a thrilling circus performance in a town whose name you have trouble saying, even simply gazing upon the face of a wondrous clock tower that is surely unique to this universe; there is no limit to where arcane inspiration can be taught, learned, and experienced.

The Order of Travelers wizards have some of the most profound stories they can retell in explicit detail through their spell journals. Returning to their hometown with tales of a great battle that formed canyons of today, or bringing back a loved one to the day you met, traveling has more than just an effect on the magic a wizard casts.

At 14th level, you have become exceptional at traveling.

Spells that provide teleportation effects no longer cost material components and take half the time to cast and set up. You can write within your spell journal descriptions of locations or memories you or others have. When you write these within your spell journal, you can bring in a number of willing creatures (can include yourself) equal to your wizard level within 30 feet of you into the portal within your spell journal to the location written and described.

If you are attempting to force unwilling creatures into your spell journal, as an action you can subject those creatures to a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, they are transported into the spell journal and you may choose to cause them to take 10d10 force damage. The duration creatures can remain within this extraplanar space remains the same. On a successful save, they are not forced into the spell journal and take half damage. You can use this feature once per long rest.

You can continue to trap creatures within the spell journal by expending a spell slot of 7th level or higher every 24 hours. Doing so every day for half a year will make this effect permanent for the creatures, and only ends if the spell journal is destroyed.
