Time Stop[]

Jumper (Time Stop) is presented in http://www.sjgames.com/pyramid/sample.html?id=5782

You can't travel through time, but you can jump out of time. While out of time, you perceive the world as frozen. You can't affect it (and vice versa) — only observe and move through it. You can interact with items you brought along, subject to the usual limits of carrying capacity; this lets you patch your wounds, reload your guns, read magical scrolls, and so forth. Times passes for you (you tire, grow hungry, age, etc.), but it's subjective. You can use your ability again to return to normal time at the instant you jumped.

Semantics[]

In Classic, instead of a following parenthesis the word preceded Jumper as differently-located abilities Time Jumper, World Jumper and Spirit Jumper.
