Placement restrictions
Stairwell chambers count as outside the level, so they do not accept teleport traps. A moving anchor cannot get around that restriction. Samantha can carry the metal machines in her nonflesh opening without her discharge destroying them.[1]

Book 6
The Eye of the Bedlam Bride
