An alchemist shapes a clay golem beside copper furnaces and a homunculus in a jar, with whales drifting past a sunken city beyond.

Gate

Alchemy, Symbol of power

Opens a gate to whatever plane the caster names.

From the book

This symbol opens a gate to whichever plane of existence the caster names.

As a Symbol of Power, it is traced by hand, wand or staff, goes off when anyone but its caster sees or encounters it, reaches no more than 20 ft. in radius, and stays in place until a counter-symbol or a successful counter-spell (50% per try) removes it.
