Random's travel magic is born of his ability to and success in walking the Pattern. Which is the blueprint for the universe. He can go anywhere, and because everything exists in some form out there, his travel is limited only by his imagination.
If he can picture it happening, it can come true. He also has limited control over what he calls Shadow, in walking between them, he can use the places where the edges bleed a little and do things like restore a room that had been trashed to its immaculate state beforehand, or suddenly make rocks that weren't falling before a little more inclined to tumble. 'Shadow' for him is what we know as 'matter.'
It runs in his family. Julian, for example, likes to make horses. From scratch.
Powerful little buggers, and they generally doesn't let on, either.
