Research Notes, Portals

As Emmy steps up to the stage, she waves a hand in a wide, sweeping arch that seems to encompass the entire audience. Dozens of small pieces of parchment, and a thin stick of charcoal swiftly float up to the audience, landing, and resting, right in front of each lap.

“Time, and space, are fundamentally linked. You cannot affect one without affecting the other. It is this very principle that makes the conjuration of portals, or the evocation of teleportation spells, such an intricate science.”

“Greetings everyone, my name is Thaumaturge Emmy Bluefire, Archmage of the Kirin’Tor, and professor of Transmutation, Evocation, and Enchantment here at stormwind university.”

“If my little excerpt earlier didn’t make it obvious already, I will be speaking to you tonight about portals, and teleportation. How do they both work? How do they really affect the world around you? And most importantly: what’s the difference?”

“However, Before I get started tonight, I want you to do a brief activity on the slips of parchment provided. Here’s what you do.”

“Take your piece of charcoal, and draw a dot on one end of the parchment slips provided. Go hard, don’t be stingy, the residue will be useful for the next step.”

pauses and waits for the audience to do as they’re told. A bright, enthusiastic smile on her face while she watches.

“Alright, next: Fold that slip of paper in half, and press the charcoal’s contact point with the other half as hard as you can.”

“Now. Unfold your parchment, and lay it flat on the ground. What you should be seeing now, are two dots, the one you drew, and a stain that charcoal placed on the other side.”

“Now, imagine this slip of parchment as being the entire universe represented on a two dimentional platform. Your two dots, are now two points in that little space/time continuum of yours. Consider this as we move along.”

“Interestingly enough, despite having very similar functions, portals and teleportation actually belong to two entirely different schools of magic. Portal spells belonging to the school of Conjuration, while Teleportation belongs to the school of transmutation.”

“Does anybody have an Idea as to why that is?”

peers around the room, looking for a show of hands with percolated ears and inquisitive eyes.

*if someone is close, the response is dynamic to the answer*

*If nobody is close* lifts up a similar slip of parchment to the ones she provided, only this one already had the dots on it pre-prepared. “Follow along with me, if you will.” she nodded

“This…” she reaches into the side pockets of her satchel, and pulls out a sticky ball of some amalgamation of plant matter, and places it to the drawn dot. With a few harsh strokes, the charcoal dot is erased, leaving only the stained one. “...is teleportation.”

“This…” she folds the paper directly in half, and holds it up like a target. A swift, ebony fletched raven feather quill whips out of her satchel and stabs a hole through the parchment… it’s tip coming out the other side. “... is a portal.”

“What’s the difference?”

peers around once again for a show of hands.

*at this point someone is bound to understand what she’s getting at. Response is dynamic to the closest answer*

“When you create a portal, you are effectively conjuring up a wormhole. You are pulling one point in space/time closer to your point in space/time and creating a doorway.”

“Hence-because conjuration is defined as summoning/pulling, creatures, people, or objects closer to you-portals belong to this school. This is helped by the fact that most conjuration rituals/spells involve the use of temporal gateways to other realms.”

“Transmutation is defined as changing time, space, and even matter from one form to another. When you cast a teleportation, you are not pulling another point in space/time closer to you.”

“Rather, you’re manipulating space/time in such a way that it places you on your target destination seamlessly, as though you were always there to begin with. It is because of this intricate change in the time/space continuum that teleportation spells belong to the school of Transmutation.”

"So I guess you can say that the difference a portal and a teleportation spell is much like the difference between masturbation and sex. The goal is the same, but how you get there and the potential repercussions of which are completely different... and arguably more destructive."

“With one you’re completely safe from any major repercussions… aside from perhaps the crushing loneliness you feel. With the other, one misstep and you’ll screw up EVERYONE'S life.”

smirks slyly at the audience.

“You need to know when one or the other is appropriate to your specific circumstances.”

“But what are the potential repercussions of a portal? When would you want to use a portal over a teleportation spell, and vice versa? Well, look once again to the slip of paper you stabbed a hole through earlier.”

“Based on just what you see, who can guess what the potential dangers of a portal is?”

*response is once again dynamic to audience answers*

“Due to the very nature of bending the universe in that way--a way it wasn’t necessarily meant to bend--creating a portal puts a tremendous strain on the fabric of reality. In our world, the only reason it hasn’t completely unraveled is thanks to the leylines beneath our very feet.”

“The leylines, in this way, help to mitigate the damage by supplying a steady stream of energy to the veil--the space between realities that insures everything remains in order--to repair itself.”

“It’s, actually, much like folding the torn edges around the hole in your parchment back into place, and sealing it with an adhesive, except far more efficient. With time, the veil will be sealed completely.”

“Here’s the thing though. Sealing the veil takes *time* Time and energy. Energy which the leylines can only provide a limited amount of before they themselves start to break.”

“In that time many dangerous things can happen if the proper steps to creating a portal aren’t followed.”

“The rift can start manifesting juvenile manawraiths. You could tear a hole into the twisting nether and beacon a bunch of wild demons in. You could get places like Kharazahn where nothing makes logical sense, or follows our conventionally held senses of order and normalcy.”

“Heck, I’ve even heard reports of apprentice conjurers disappearing for weeks on end only to return with moon sized heads and mouse sized bodies.”

/laugh

“Okay… that one is a bit of an exaggeration, but it is an exaggeration of a true story.”

“Another unique property of a portal is that it doesn’t quite mesh well with transmutation spells. Such spells malfunction when passing under the threshold of a portal. Often with destructive results.”

“Why this is though, is a matter of hot debate in the scholarly community. Though, the running theory I keep is that the patterns holding a transmutation to a person directly contradict with the patterns that keep a portal open, due to the way both spells are woven.”

“It’s like when you add a positive and negative number together. In reality you’re just subtracting from the positive number and reducing it’s value.”

“So because portals require significantly more energy to sustain than most transmutation spells, the transmutation spell is canceled out. The resulting energy expulsion being sudden, and destructive.”

“The Kirin’Tor, at this time, would like me to remind you that you should never shove or throw a polymorphed creature or object through a portal. The results are often… explosive. It also leaves a mess of both bodily parts and paperwork. Believe me, *nobody* likes cleaning that up.”

“So what of it’s alternative? Based once again on the activity from earlier, what do you guys think the damages teleportation can cause to the space/time continuum? What do you think the ‘eraser marks’ represent?”

pauses for a moment, once again looking for a show of hands.

*dynamic responses*

“Brace yourselves, because of all the spells in a mage's compendium, teleportation has one of the most mind-bending principles. If at any point you need me to pause and further elaborate on something, please let me know with a raised hand.”

“There is a spell any mage who specializes in arcane evocation specifically would know, and know well. It’s called ‘Displacement’ . The basic function of the spell is that you blink to the location you last blinked from. A simple concept, really, but it’s application is anything but.”

“When the spell is cast, the recovery period of your blink spell is reset, almost as if it were never cast in the first place. In a sense, you are undoing your last blink spell.”

“This spell is possible due to the way in which teleportation works.”

“Time and space are fundamentally linked. I’ve said it already, indeed. But now you guys get to know why.”

“It takes time to move to a new space. By teleporting, you are skipping that time. So? The universe needs to compensate for it… lest it start to unravel.”

“When a teleportation spell is cast, a lasting impression is left on the fabric of reality. That impression will remain there until enough time has passed.”

“How much time needs to pass is solely dependent on how much time it would have taken you to travel to that destination on foot, assuming you continue on foot relentlessly, in a straight line, with no obstacles in your way.”

“For a blink spell, the time needed to pass is only a few seconds. Fifteen at most depending on how far you were able to blink. But for full fledged teleportation spells, that take you halfway across the planet? This time can be anywhere from a few weeks to over a year, or more!”

“On the surface though, these impressions seem harmless enough. They aren’t really dangerous to be around, and for the most part you can’t even see them. Not unless you’ve been specifically trained to detect them.”

“But don’t let the relative safety of their presence fool you. Such places are spots where the fabric of reality has been weakened, or frayed. Much like how the spot you erased has become weakened and frayed.”

“This means that, while not necessarily damaged, they are much easier to puncture or rip apart. Put too much strain on the spot by, say, casting a portal or channeling a powerful spell, and you could wind up having the exact same problems you face with reckless portal usage.”

“And that there, combined with the fact that most people *aren’t* trained to detect displacement fields such as these, is what makes them dangerous. This is why the Kirin’Tor, and most other mage organizations, have specifically designated arrival spots for people who enter via teleportation or portal.”

“By keeping these spots located in a controlled environment, they can much more quickly, effectively, and immediately spring into action if something goes awry.”

“So what does that mean for everyone else? Simply put, you have to be cautious about where and when you use one spell or the other. It also means that, if you want to save yourself a load of trouble, you need to be very picky about what mages you pay to transport you elsewhere.”

“My recommendation? Only allow mages who have a D-6 through G-16 license to create you a portal or teleport you elsewhere. Such mages have been specifically trained and formally qualified to use portal spells.”

“and have been entrusted not only with the health and stability of the leylines, but with your life and livelihood as a person. Never be afraid to ask a mage about their licensing!”

“If you ask, and a mage starts to act shifty, nervous, or calls you out for being ‘rude’ , that is a huge warning sign. It’s a strong indication that they are trying to remain out of the system. Trained mages with D-6 through G-16 licenses are all too happy to tell you as such. Speaking from experience.” Emmy smirks.

“For those who actually wish to cast the spells, then there are multiple things you ought to consider.”

“First, Reagent tax. Repairing a Leyline, and by proxy the veil, is expensive, and requires an intensive amount of magical components to do. The leylines, after all, are far larger than the parchment before you.”

“By the way, to those who use these services, *this* is why you're often prompted to pay.”

“So, if you intend to cast a portal or teleportation spell, be sure you either have the reagents on hand, or have the means to pay for them. It is never a bad Idea to charge people for your services.”

“Next-especially if you’re new to the practice-stick to established city drop-off points. That way, if something goes wrong, you won’t be scrambling to fix the issue on your own.”

“If you want to cast portals to places not within established city drop-off points: then I recommend places you know are both familiar to you, and you visit frequently enough to make preparations.”

“Creating your own pseudo drop off point, where you can reliably survey the area for irregularities, is always a good habit.”

“So, that’s all the safety jargon down. Much to everyone’s relief I’m sure.” she laughs. “Let's get back into the more interesting stuff.”

“As I’m sure you’ve all gathered already, both spells have their advantages and their drawbacks. Portals are destructive, but also easy to comprehend. Teleportation is considerably less dangerous, but much harder to comprehend.”

“You can also see your destination through a portal, with teleportation you cannot.”

“As a general rule of thumb, creating a portal is much more applicable in a wartime or battlefield scenario. Not only is it simpler to learn, faster to cast, and easier to understand. Your comrades can also trust where their going and would likely be less reluctant to step through.”

“Despite this though, I can never recommend casting a portal in the midst of conflict. You become too much of a target for one. And secondly, your enemies, or your enemies’ projectiles can enter through it as well.”

“Portals also come recommended more when you need to transport multiple people, but can’t exactly do it all at the same time. As long as you maintain concentration on a portal, you can hold it open. With teleportation it’s a one time blip and you’re there.”

“A teleportation spell is not without its merits though. Once again, however, I can never recommend using it in the midst of conflict. Not unless its a mere blink meant to avoid attacks.”

“I would also recommend using a portal when it’s the first time you’ve transported yourself to that destination, and aren’t 100% clear on the details and conditions that’ll be found there. It gives you a brief period of reprieve in which you can assess all of that yourself.”

“For casual transportation use, in which you know where you’re going, I cannot recommend teleportation enough! If you’re able to put the time into it needed to understand the spell, a mass teleportation is always a better option than a portal.”

“In conditions too, where you’re in a warzone, but aren’t actively in conflict, teleportation is a good option as well. Because unless your enemy is known to have a skilled Arcane mage at their side, a teleportation is relatively subtle compared to a portal. Albeit, less common.”

“The only thing I would recommend, especially if you’re attempting to transport a larger group of people, is to draw a circle and insure each teleportee can fit within it through relative organization.”

“I would also insure that the topographical environment you’re teleporting them too is similar, if not exactly the same, as the one you’re teleporting them from. I.E. , don’t teleport someone from a flat environment to a hilly one.”

“This insures nobody gets sunk into the ground, or falls off a cliff thanks to your negligence. It also saves you a significant amount of calculations to run in your head. And trust me, any mage can tell you that’s an absolute godsend… as most of our spells have to be cast in under a minute.”

“So, in conclusion, portals, and teleportation are both extremely useful, but also extremely dangerous. It takes any mage an extreme amount of skill and precision to manage one or the other regardless of the differences in difficulty.”

“If you commission one, insure you can trust that mage’s track record. If you cast one, insure you know exactly what you’re doing, and where you’re going. Always err on the side of caution when you channel one into existence. Especially when the lives of others depend on it.”

(I figured while I’m still doing research on Witchcraft in WoW--which I will try to get out by Halloween btw--I should share my write up for Emmy’s last lecture. She presented this one for Colloquium for Stormwind University, and after tons of positive feedback on it, decided more would like to see it :P Enjoy guys!)

This coloring book has been a bestseller for quite some time now.

Anyways....

This coloring book has some amazing designs. Some people find them similar to Johanna Basford's coloring books.

The book has 31 stunning designs that you can color.

The owls are covered with flowers, paisleys, and other fun-to-color patterns.

The coloring pages are printed single-sided and are perforated. This way you can rip your piece of art an hang it somewhere after you are finished.

Not a lot of coloring books have that!

However some people might find the tight spaces in the designs hard to color in and sometimes even frustrating because of the details.

beautiful images and very detailed pages. If you aren't able to color in small areas, this might not be the book for you.

Sirius Reviewer (Amazon Customer)

If you don't like lots of details this book is not for you.

Below you can see a speed coloring of one of the pages in the coloring book.

The artist from the video says in the discription:

We used permanent Sharpie markers for this coloring page. We love the vibrant colors of the Sharpie markers. Please note that Sharpie markers may bleed through the coloring page.

Sherri from Family Toy Report

So keep in mind that markers may bleed through the pages but it is a good thing that you can rip them off the book before starting coloring.

That way you won't mess up the other coloring pages below.

CONS:

If you haven't seen our coloring books yet this one has one of the best designs so far.

Our adult coloring book with animals has 29 unique animal designs to color all printed on a single side.

The dimentions of the book are 8.5 x 0.2 x 11 inches.

The book has been glue bound on the side.

Each page has calming designs that are with just enough detail to allow some blending and not be overwhelming.

The illustrations are perfect for beginners and advanced colorists.

You can check out some of our illustration below:

Although both coloring books have the same images inside, it looks like most of the people prefer the one with black background.

It seems to make the illustrations pop after they have been colored.

Absolutely love this coloring book. I wanted a black background coloring book to bring out the vibrant colors of gel pens, and this book fits the bill beautifully. The images are creative and well fleshed out. The paper is a bit thin and curls easily if the ink is too wet, but that does not take away at all from the beauty of the book. Very satisfied with this purchase and would recommend for anyone looking for a Midnight coloring book.

I wanted to include one or two swear word coloring books with animals in this list for the people who love the style

So here is the first one... ⤴️

This coloring book has been in the top #1000 books on Amazon for a long time now.

And the reason behind this is the price again.

$4-$5 for a coloring book is a great deal isn't it?

Hold your horses...

...before you click on the buy button and keep on reading the review...

Lets see what are the negative aspects of the book.

A lot of the negative reviews on this book keep stating that the swear words in this book are being too vulgar and even sometimes...

...not understandable

There are words like D*ckwod, S*thhouse, C*mbubble, C*m$lut...

I don't even understand those words and the meaning behind

So keep this in mind if you want to buy this book for a gift. This is NOT for people who are easily offended or don't like swearing.

And now lets see the positives of the book.

When buy this book you will get 27 swear word coloring pages with animals.

Each of the pages is printed single-sided to avoid bleed through. Most of the books are like that.

However one of the special things about this book is that the author provides a secret link inside the book from which you can get a PDF version of the book and print it as many times as you wish.

No need to buy another copy if you want to color the same design twice!

Quite generous from the author in my opinion.

Also this book has a midnight edition which has black background behind the designs so when coloring it makes the picture pop.

Same coloring pages as in other books

Repeating animals

This coloring book has the amazing 40 Illustrations inside

...most of the coloring books have around 30 and this one has tried to up the number a bit.

However, as you can see from the video below there are a lot of similar images of butterflies and fishes that are perhaps used as "fillers".

youtube

While you get a lot of coloring pages at an amazing price, some people have reported that the images inside the book are pixelated and blurry.

Others write in their reviews that some of the images have really tight spaces that are hard to color into.

So at most you would get around 25 images that are great to color

Hey... this is still a great deal for a book like this which sells for around $4-$5.

However, I wouldn't recommend buying this if the price goes above $5.

It is just not worth it.

You would find better books for price above that level

If you have been coloring for quite some time now you must have seen this coloring book before.

This book has over 40 Illustrations inside printed single sided.

This way you won't ruin a design printed on the other side. Just make sure you put some sheets of paper between the pages to prevent bleed through.

However, the images are very inconsistent in style.

Seems like a collection of illustrations from different authors. (like many of the other books)

Which is not nececery a bad thing but keep in mind that you will not get the same style images.

Furthermore, some peole report that the images have very tiny details that are hard to color.

[...] Illustrations are very detailed, and some are more than diabolically detailed very tiny [...]

Jackie Cooper

I am sure that the author just wanted to make sure there is something for every coloring level.

Also you will get some really great designs with this book. Some of the images are very interesting and unique in concept and it is deligthful to color them.

If you want to check out what kind of designs you will get, watch the flip-through video below:

PROS:

31 Illustrations

Great details

Has a spiral-bound version

CONS:

No variety of animals (only few breeds of dogs)

This coloring book is just made for dog lovers and is a perfect gift!

With 31 cute dog illustrations this one is an amazing addition to anyone's collection.

The book is glue bound and with 8.2 x 0.2 x 11 inches for dimantions.

When you open the book you will find that the dogs are surrounded with different kind of flowers and other little details that you can color in.

Maybe some people might find that there is over-abundance of hearts and flowers on each page which can make a cluttered appearance.

The one thing that I liked very much in this book is the thin line borders around each page design which adds a pleasing visual aspect and a finishing touch.

However, the dogs' mouths, eyes and the surrounding flowers and decoration seem to be the same on each coloring page. The author has just resized the flowers and changed some other little things to make a new coloring page.

This and the fact that there are only dogs in this book will make some people quit coloring this book after the 3rd page.

It kind of looks like you are coloring the same thing over and over again.

Don't get me wrong. The designs are definately unique and interesting.

But some people might find them very similar...

CONS:

Illustrations from different authors

This coloring book is one of the cheapest adult coloring books with animals.

As of now that I am writing this the book sells for $3.99 for 50 illustrations inside the book.

...this is an amazing price for so many images!

However, for such a low price you should keep in mind what you are getting.

As with many other cheap end books the illustrations inside are blurry and pixelated.

Also some of the designs might be found in other books of the same kind.

However, if you just like to have a variety of images but you don't care much about the print quality this is the book for you.

Sine more specifications of the book:

The book is 8 x 0.2 x 10 inches in size

The cover has a glossy finish

The pages are printed single-sided

60lb paper

There are two fully colored designs that can kickstart you imagination.

However, some people have said that there are not enough detail in the images.

Also the paper is not the best quality but at least you can remove the pages before coloring.

Animorphia An Extreme Coloring and Search Challenge

PROS:

Amazing designs

Great quality paper

High quality

CONS:

Lots of blank spaces

Illustrations go in the gutter (hard to color)

Markers may bleed throught and ruin the designs on the other side

If we are talking about adult coloring books with animals we can not pass on this masterpiece.

This coloring book has one of the most detailed and intriguing designs for a coloring book.

Some of the pages may take you up to 12h and more to color fully.

Furthermore the paper quality of this book is far better then most other coloring books, but that's also why you pay a higher price for it.

The size of the book is 10 x 0.4 x 10 inches which gives you a lot of coloring space.

However there are some issues with it as well...

The coloring book has most of the designs spread through both pages. And because of that a part of the images is lost in between the gutter (the place where the pages are glued)

It also appears that they didn't print the entire image and just stopped at a certain point before the binding. So even if you try to remove the pages from the book you will not get the entire image.

Just a weird dead white space in the middle of the design.

Also keep in mind that the pages are printed side by side and if you use heavy coloring mediums such as markers they will bleed through and it will ruin the page on the other side.

If you want to check out what kind of designs you will get with this book watch the video below.

PROS:

Great designs

High quality paper

Lots of details

CONS:

Childish directions inside the book

Printed 2 sided so can't use markers at all

Might take you hours to color one page fully

This coloring book resembles a lot of the style of Johanna Basford.

A great thing about it is that it is that the images are amazing and super detailed.

However, some people aslo might find some of the details frustrating for coloring.

Some of the designs will take you lots of time to color in.

The paper is thick and heavy but the images are printed 2 sided so don't use markers or they will leak through to the next page.

Next, some people say that the book will not lay flat so it's almost impossible to get to the designs in the gutter (the place where the pages are glued)

Also some people might find the directions inside the book somewhat annoying. ("take your time decorating the tortoise's shell" and "complete the ocean home of this graceful giant using deep blues and greens" and "the snail lives in his shell, help to decorate his home.")

Some people might find this childish for an adult coloring book.

Anyways, apart from that this book is a great addition to anyones collection.

Take a look at the cloring pages inside from the flip-through video below.

If you love butterflies this coloring books is for you.

This one has 30 illustrations of different butterfly designs that are printed on light weight paper.

Since the illustrations are printed single sided this will prevent ruining the other designs.

Just make sure to place some sheets of paper between the pages.

However, some of the images are not centered. And because of that 7 of the coloring pages are cut of the edge of the page.

Let's hope the author fixes this soon.

Also some of the images look sketched and not with solid lines.

But for the price you are getting this book it is a fair deal.

This coloring book is created for dog lovers.

It includes 100 dog designs to color of different breeds.

And as for the price you are getting this book it is a steal!

The drawings are combination of facial drawings and full body.

It is easy to recognise the different breeds.

And the patterns that they are made of will make you relax and want to color page after page.

A good thing about this book is that the pages are not overwhelming with details.

Also you can use just a few colors and make your page look stunning.

If you are a dog lover you shouldn't miss out on this book at all.

The only downside is that there are no other variety of animals in here and it might get boring after a while.
