See O Ott, the Ice Citadel. Trying to make a portal feel more legendary so I included a bonuslike effect for getting heads.

This doesn't really feel like a portal to me. I don't understand how the coin flip represents that.

The flip (landing on tails) is supposed to show you being teleported away from that land (why I decided it should be shuffled in).

Why is the use of the portal random?

Lorewise: portals are disappearing or taking people to different places. Mechanicswise: I felt this could represent the above.
