Create Portal

"A whisper to the wind, a vision in your mind... and the world unfolds before you."

You conjure a swirling circle of wind that condenses into shimmering magical particles, forming a portal that hovers inches above the ground. The portal appears vertically and is visible from one side of your choice; the opposite side is transparent.

To activate the portal, you must either speak the true name of a location or clearly visualize it in your mind. The portal opens to that destination, even if it lies on another plane of existence. Once opened, you may step through the portal and choose to either dismiss it or leave it open indefinitely. The portal remains until it is dismissed or dispelled.

The portal is stationary and large enough for Medium or smaller creatures to pass through.

At Higher Levels.

This cantrip improves as you gain levels:

• 5th level: The portal can accommodate Large creatures, and up to twice your spellcasting ability modifier (minimum of 2) creatures may pass through.

• 11th level: The portal can accommodate Huge creatures, and up to three times your spellcasting ability modifier may pass through.

• 17th level: The portal can accommodate Gargantuan creatures. An unlimited number of creatures may pass through at the GM’s discretion.

Limitations.

You cannot open a portal into a location that is magically warded or sealed, such as those protected by Forbiddance, Private Sanctum, or Glyph of Warding.

You may have multiple portals active at one time. However, maintaining more than three open portals at once places magical strain on your body. At the end of each long rest, you gain 1 level of exhaustion for each portal beyond three that remains open. This exhaustion cannot be removed by resting and may only be cured by magical means such as Greater Restoration or Wish.

A portal created by this spell closes early if:

• You dismiss it as a bonus action.

• It is dispelled (e.g., by Dispel Magic or an Antimagic Field).
