Why not allow only a certain amount of people to step through the portal,
depending the power/level of the castor? So say a level 5 castor would
only be able to create a portal able to withstand one char entering, while
a level 30 castor would be able to create a portal for 10 entrances?
Level/power could also affect how long the portal lasts, also as each char
walks through GET_TIMER is decreased as well.
