Description this is the Wanderer's Pocket Locket, inspired by Doctor Who and Portal, in essence it is a portal projector that can also traverse time and space, |I am not sure what character to give this amazing power to so feel free to allow your characters to use it, My treat! just follow its rules|

the watch is the main console of the time machine most of it's functions are holographic so it looks like nothing more than a simple fob watch, it also contains a multi-tool generator and a portal projector. These portals are much like the red and blue portals in Portal and act as a two way gate between any two conductive (smooth metal or smooth stone) surfaces in visual range.

they can also bridge between two periods of time or coordinates in the universe although the farther away or in time one wishes to go the longer it takes to make a portal (a trip to Mars would take 30 minutes to form the gate) and while the gate is forming a number of unusual things can happen around the gate. when traveling the black portal always leads to the past and the white to the future.

the gates while forming make this distinct sound [link]

The owner of the watch is known as 'The Wanderer' and it is bound to it's user unless someone else can outwit them, to own the watch one must sacrifice something minor about them that makes one human (or pony) but it highlights one's personality, the portals can also be used to enter a massive inter-dimensional sanctuary but the user has to be in out in existence to cast portals. Visual range casting requires little power but long trips require power from time anomalies all over the world, and thus the wanderer must seek them in his or her world.

the watch is never on time as the dark hand points to the black gate, the light hand points to the white gate and the small hand points to anomalies.



my credit to Portal and Dr Who for inspiration

wow thats stellar! i love that concept, can you give an example of what the Wanderer would have to "give up" to own it? like, would it be their ear or tail or would it be something like a dream or a memory? oh that would be sad if you had to fuel it with memories. i know you could make new ones but still. huh, i like that idea. pretty morbid.

TomradeM In reply to DDdumpling [2013-03-21 01:22:29 +0000 UTC]

Thanks!!! it could be any part of them within reason. an Eye and Ear or a Tail would work, but it can be mental like the ability to dream or a portion of memoury, or personality. It could also be a defect say I were the wanderer I would give up my childhood memoury or become fatalistic in bad situations as my payment.. any way I am glad you like this whole 'part of you' concept

That's a pretty kick ass concept, bruder. So many words my brain can hardly process them XD when you get home you'll have to better explain this to me so I can properly steal understand it~

Qemma In reply to TomradeM [2013-03-20 20:32:58 +0000 UTC]

What wouldn't you do with it! Well I suppose there are a few things that you could do that would change the modern world quite drastically. Various rules of time that shouldn't be broken...

TomradeM In reply to Qemma [2013-03-21 01:43:20 +0000 UTC]

there are timey wimey rules, and I respect history. I would be more of a neutral observer in time

Qemma In reply to TomradeM [2013-03-21 03:32:53 +0000 UTC]

I too would love to travel back in time just to observe. However it would be highly amusing to bring someone from the past into the future
