Stride
All Aligned are wanderers by nature, and your pursuit of this nature has afforded you knowledge of this form. Actualizing this form gives one the ability to wander through eideturgical waypoints placed in folds in space, stepping through each waypoint only in spirit, but ending up at the final waypoint in body as well. In simpler terms, this form allows one to project a path via a set of directions, and to end up at the end of that path.
The utility of this form is manifold. One can bypass almost any sort of door; one can "step" through walls or into and out of floors; one can avoid guards, traps, or prying eyes; and so on.
However, there is a serious risk in using this form for anything other than very short distances. If one attempts to stride in a manner that is impossible -- for example, attempting to go north where there is no possibility of doing so -- one's steps will be interrupted at that point. The attempt to step through a fold in space that does not exist puts severe spatial pressure on one's body and can easily result in dismemberment or death. Something similar holds true for trying to stride through an area which has been warded against translocative effects.
Lastly, one should note that each step one takes puts an increasing drain on one's spiritual energy. Increasing one's facility with the form helps with this cost.
- [OOC Note: The argument given takes the same format as the second form of the "go" command, that is, a comma-delimited list of directions that can include numerical specifications for moving in a direction more than once (e.g. "n, 5ne, e").]
