Teleporter

**Teleporters** are objects seen in *Phoenotopia* and *Phoenotopia: Awakening*. They are large machines made with ancient technology that can teleport people between two places. Gail is able to use them to access secret areas and skip over particularly long and grueling areas, although they only appear in a select few spots in the late stages of the game, granting her little opportunity to do so.

## Description

Teleporters are large machines resembling pedestals with a platform that glows when active. They are remnants of ancient technology that the humans of the present are unable to recreate. Rutea and Professor Fran both worked on repairing existing Teleporters, though only Fran managed to succeed as Rutea was abducted by the Collectors before she could continue her work.

## Locations

### Phoenotopia

Two Teleporters are seen when the player first enters Ancient Crater. One is linked to the Phoenix Lab's entrance, and the other is linked to its core (the area just before the Computer Guardian). They become active once Gail reaches the lab's entrance and core, respectively; this was done because the Phoenix Lab is an especially long level, so the Teleporters were put in place to allow the player to come and go to and from the Phoenix Lab quickly and easily. This is especially useful for when the player reaches the Computer Guardian's room, allowing them to use the Teleporter just before its room to exit the Phoenix Lab, grab any items (e.g. consumable items with high healing or power-boosting properties) they need, and come right back to the room.

Another Teleporter is located in Fran's Lab. It only becomes active after Gail gives Fran 30 Moonstones, after which she will activate it and use it to bring herself and her colleagues to Hidden Village. When Gail uses it, though, she will be taken to Forgotten Forest instead, and must make her way through the forest first to reach Hidden Village.

A defunct Teleporter can be found in the lower level of Ruth and Thomas's house in Panselo. There is no way to activate it.

### Phoenotopia Awakening

*Phoenotopia Awakening* features a network of Teleporters located in Fran's Lab which are linked to remote stations known as Franways, which are situated near Panselo, Atai, and Cosette. These Teleporters are activated one at a time by giving Fran enough Moonstones to be able to power them up; each one requires ten Moonstones. The first set of ten Moonstones unlocks the Teleporter in Panselo, the second set unlocks the one in Atai, and the third set unlocks the one in Cosette.

Aside from these Teleporters, another one known as the Forgotten Teleporter can be found just beyond Mul Caves, and can be activated by locating three working batteries and putting one into each of the three generators that power the Teleporter. Once activated, it links to another Teleporter located on the inside of a tower right next to Fran's lab, thus serving as a reliable way to be able to travel back and forth between the game's last section and the rest of Castella without having to pass through the Great Walls, Scorchlands, and Mul Caves every time.

There are also two more Teleporters in Pristine City; one links to the outside of SPHERE and can be activated as soon as Gail finds it in the city, and the other one links to the core of E.D.E.N. but can only be activated by first finding and using the other Teleporter located within E.D.E.N. Much like in the first game, these Teleporters exist to allow the player to enter and leave the game's final levels without any hassle.

Also worth noting is that in this game, Teleporters have a chance to shock Gail, causing her to fall to the ground in a daze after emerging from them. If this happens, the player need only make Gail jump to wake her up and bring her back to normal. Gail can inform Fran's assistant, Van, about this problem and he will recalibrate the Franway Teleporters, meaning they will no longer shock Gail.
