Motion Magic is one of the most useful Talents of the Elkandu, although it is technically two distinct powers, teleportation and telekinesis.
Telekinetics involves magically moving things without touching them, causing them to hover through the air or be pushed across a surface. This sub-talent is most commonly found in conjunction with Mind Magic, although not always, and most people that can Travel can use it as well.
Traveling, on the other hand, moves things without crossing the intervening space. Short-distance Travelling, generally considered of 100 feet or less, is known as Blinking. Depending upon the skill and strength of the Traveller, as well as the mass of the object or objects being moved, it may take time to materialize and dematerialize in a location. Blinking is typically instantaneous due to the lesser skill needed to Travel a short distance.
Reverse teleportation involves bringing a distant object to your current location rather than the other way around. Teleporting large objects and people to you is called summoning. Teleporting small objects toward that could be held in one hand is known as snatching.
A special case of Traveling is known as Recall, and involves specifically Travelling to a Nexus. It is always easier to Travel in and out of a Nexus, so even people with little or no skill at Motion can generally Recall.
