Question Title: Will there ever be a way to tie to multiple portals ?
Category: Magic
Question: I just want to say that I really enjoy playing this game. I have hade close to 6 different characters now over the last year and I think that my bow character has been my favorite other than sword. The question I have is will there ever be a way to tie to multiple portals with the portal I, II and III spells ? and also will there ever be a way that you can tie to a portal but still use portal recall to take you through the last portal you went through ? It would make more sense because of the name "Portal recall". Maybe you could make another spell called "Portal Tied" or "Portal In" to go with the tie. Just a curiosity. Thanks for being her to answer our questions.

Answer: Very unlikely. Storing more than one tie on a character would be a fair amount of new code.

That being said, there are some tricks we can play. Orbs and gems with unique recall/summon destinations, for example, or learnable spells that recall/summon to unique locations.
