Time Travel
Limit Break
Those present are teleport away to a faraway time. They usually stay there only for a limited time, or until a specific event occurs, but this is highly variable. Any changes caused while time traveling are usually temporary and will have worked themselves out in the intervening time, so you usually cannot change the present by changing the past. You can gain new knowledge, rescue someone, recover artifacts and so on, depending on the exact properties of this particular time rift and the GM's whim.
