The Warp Gate in the Underworld
Warp Gates were a method of transportation that Raziel used to get across Kain's empire in Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver, though he could only travel between gates that had already been activated.
Raziel first encountered one of these 'teleportation gates' in the Underworld at the start of Soul Reaver, where he encountered the first one in the Elder's tutorial in the Spectral Realm, as he proceeded through Kain's empire, Raziel was able to activate many other warp gates and was able to travel between them by selecting the appropriate symbol for each location and then stepping through. Each warp gate was marked with a blue 'sun' symbol on a door which led to the warp gate itself (the same symbol was repeated around the warp gate itself in green when activated) and a symbol specific to the location itself indicated which warp gate Raziel was intending to warp to.

Notes
It is unknown who constructed these machines but they appear to have an image of a specific territory with each individual gate. They may have been constructed by human slaves in Kain's empire (seeing as how the City has one as well, perhaps the Citadel was recaptured from Kain after a revolt) and there is also the warp gate in The Abyss caverns (how it got there is unknown).
