A fairly random thought. A proposal for three rules. Feel free to shoot
thme down.

Beam me up, Scotty [Jota]

I. There will exist a token called a "personal teleporter". Associated
   with it will be either the status "burned out" or "fully charged". Its
   initial status is "burned out", and its initial location is the Blasted
   Heath.

II. If the active player is carrying a personal teleporter whose status is
    "fully charged", that player may choose to invoke the teleporter as an
    action. Invoking the teleporter involves setting the teleporter's
    status to "burned out", dropping the teleporter, and then setting
    one's location to any room on the map of one's choice (in that order).
    If the player is forbidden to do any of those things, then this action
    may not take place. The personal teleporter may not be used if the
    player has moved in the same turn, and the player may not be moved by
    any other action in the same turn after using the personal teleporter.

III. If a time bomb esplodes while its location is the same as that of a
     personal teleporter, then that teleporter's status will be set to
     "fully charged".
