Blinkbinder

Blinkbinders are arcane combatants who perceive the hidden seams between places. Their glowing eyes reveal possible destinations, while their spells pull allies through those seams or call temporary creatures across them. A Blinkbinder fights by appearing where needed, controlling the battlefield, and combining precise spellcasting with summoned support.

Training & Initiation

A prospective Blinkbinder usually begins after surviving an uncontrolled teleportation, bonding with a summoned creature, or discovering an inherited arcane eye-mark. Training combines mental visualization, controlled spellcasting, spatial mathematics, and repeated exercises in opening portals without losing one's identity across the threshold.

Societal Perception

People often admire Blinkbinders as rescuers and couriers but distrust their ability to appear without warning. In rural communities, summoned creatures may be treated as omens, while rulers see Blinkbinders as valuable strategic assets and dangerous infiltrators.
