About Runecraft

Runecraft requires Effective Hours to carve runes onto various types of items. These items are categorized by their Type and Quality. The quality of an item affects the number of runes it can sustain, while the item type determines the nature of the rune. Failing to enchant an item necessitates a Durability Check.

Item Quality

Common Items: 1 Enchantment Slot. Premium Items: 2 Enchantment Slots. Supreme Items: 3 Enchantment Slots.

Hosts

A host is any item chosen for enchantment, though certain runes provide unique effects when applied to specific types of items.

Item Types

Weapons: Any type of weapon. Armor: Armor, Shields, Gauntlets, Helms. Accessories: Rings, Amulets, Cloaks, Belts, Boots, Bracers, Robes, Gloves.

Compatibility

Each Rune is compatible with one or more of the categories above. Therefore, Enchanters can make effective combinations according to the nature of each item.

Rune Types

Rune types are similar to magic domains, offering variations of common spells. They function as enchantments that can be used periodically (typically once per day), as Actions or Reactions (with a contested roll), or passively as active enhancements. Each level of Runecraft allows the enchanter to choose one new Rune of their preference.

Common Runes

Fire Ice Thunder Wind Core Blood Nature Death Theurgy Time Iron Wood Illusion Light

Learning Runes

Each Runecraft Level grants knowledge over 1 Rune. However, with each Rune, the Enchanter automatically learns 6 Variations. For Example, if the Enchanter selects the Fire Rune, they get the Inferno, Flame, Ember, Pyre, Comet and Blaze Runes.

Enchanting

The process of Enchanting is similar for all types of Runes. Therefore, the requirements are the same regardless of Rune. Difficulty: 10 Effective Hours: 10 Effect: Carves one Rune upon an item.
