The skill of Runelore revolves around two aspects: [[Runes]] and [[Totems]]. By sketching various runes on the ground, on yourself, on other people, or on weapons or armour, a variety of beneficial or harmful effects may be achieved.

In the year 301 AF, shortly after the [[Shrine Wars]] that plagued [[Sapience]], a mysterious stalagmite appeared within the mountain [[:Category:Islands|island]] where [[Sartan|Sartan, Lord of Evil]] was trapped. In their despair, followers of the imprisoned God began to impale themselves upon the rock formation and their sacrifices fed the spread of a plant-killing [[red fog]]. The miasma of evil that was the fog seemed to grow with each death and soon spread off the island. Despite the efforts of [[Oakstone]], the [[Church]], and other individuals to stave off the fog, it continued to spread and even take on a life of its own. In desperation to be rid of the fog, [[Gaia|Gaia, the Earthmother]], caused a tremendous quake to try and sink the island. The effect was the opposite, however; and not only did the fog spread faster, but the bonds of Sartan were finally broken and He escaped. Upon His release, He dubbed Himself Sartan, the Malevolent, and raised a stronghold known as [[Baelgrim Fortress]] for His faithful. The city of Mhaldor was founded by a [[Maldaathi]] [[knights|knight]] named Kaelin.
While Runes are a nice supplement to other skills, the true power of Runelore is only unleashed in the Totem. By sketching up to six runes on a Totem, and then either Implanting it, or Standing it, you are able to create a weapon of destruction that can wreak havoc with anyone the Totem is tuned to affect, when that person enters the room.


In 396 AF, Lord Sartan bid the Lady [[Keresis]] to help split Himself asunder using a mighty stalagmite. It was at this time that He was divided into the two Divine from which He had been formed, Lord [[Shaitan]] and Lord [[Apollyon]]. Until the events of the [[Bal'met]] Saga, the city was jointly ruled by the two Divine, with the occasional help of Keresis, and city patronage was decided during the annual [[Sarapin Sacrifice]].
The '''Runelore''' skill is available to members of the [[runewardens|Runewarden]] [[class]], along with [[Weaponmastery]] and [[Chivalry]].


The city of Mhaldor is located on the [[Mhaldor Isle|island]] surrounded by blood red waters, just off the Northern [[Vashnar_Mountains|Vashnars]], connected by a massive [[Gruu'n Chasm Bridge|bridge]] formed from the carcass of the [[Leviathan]]. It is home to the [[:category:houses|Houses]] of the [[Insidium]] and [[Dread Legates]]. It is a city dedicated to Evil and the propagation of the [[Evil|Seven Truths of Evil]]. Its architecture is that of two overlapping circles around [[Baelgrim Fortress]].

==Landmarks==
{{Skill_detail
Directly past the gates of Mhaldor, the Stygian Crossroads can be found, a popular gathering point for citizens and slaves alike. Upwards from the Crossroads you can find the [[Baelgrim Fortress]], the [[Fissure]] as well as a statue of Lord Kaelin is located in the Central Courtyard. Along the Avenue of Trapped Souls is an eerie looking tree. It is at this tree that aspiring Mhaldorians kneel and swear their oath of loyalty. Don’t stand too close for the tree is blood-thirsty, and has been known to make attempts at grabbing people. North and East of that is the [[Mhaldorian Cathedral]], occasionally referred to as the [[Mhaldorian Cathedral| Black Basilica]]. Erected in 433 AF, this monumental building stands as an antipode to the [[Chrysalis Basilica]] which once stood in [[Shallam]]. Every Sarapin, a sacrifice to the [[Sartan|Lord of Evil]] is conducted within the centre of the [[Mhaldorian Cathedral|Cathedral]].

Should you enter the lower circle of the city, a trip to the markets will bring you across [[Gack]], the slaver, as well as many shops selling a range of wares.

}}


==Shopping==
{{Skill_detail
Shops are located all over Mhaldor, but the main shops are located in the market district in the lower circle of the city. Rurin’s business has not reached this island and necessities such as inks and even sigils are sold in shops owned by [[Drogo]], the travelling merchant. The quality and durability of said items, however, leave much to be desired. Mhaldor once had a jewellery store in the market district known as Vanity, once run by the seductive [[Emalaith]], it is now open for ownership by adventurers instead. Those with an interest in unique stationery might wish to track down [[Drobund]] and have a look at his wares. Because of Mhaldor’s high population of thieves, one might find rare or unique guild items within certain shops, either on display or for sale. With some luck, if one was robbed, one might actually be able to buy it back here.

For those less food-inclined, there is the arena. The [[Colloseum Diabolus]] is one of the more unique [[arenas]] in Sapience with segmented areas joined by a single warp. Those less physically inclined might simply wish to settle down for a round of [[gambling|roulette]] with [[Ardak]] or [[gambling|blackjack]] with [[Lugbrad]], or even a game of [[King's Chess|chess]] or darts while enjoying [[Mhaldor drinks|drinks]] in the common room just a few paces west of the [[Worm and Grub]].

Revision as of 05:18, 13 January 2019

The skill of Runelore revolves around two aspects: Runes and Totems. By sketching various runes on the ground, on yourself, on other people, or on weapons or armour, a variety of beneficial or harmful effects may be achieved.

While Runes are a nice supplement to other skills, the true power of Runelore is only unleashed in the Totem. By sketching up to six runes on a Totem, and then either Implanting it, or Standing it, you are able to create a weapon of destruction that can wreak havoc with anyone the Totem is tuned to affect, when that person enters the room.

The Runelore skill is available to members of the Runewarden class, along with Weaponmastery and Chivalry.

Attune Effect: {{{attune}}}

Details: With this ability, you may take a totem, and make it into a semi-permanent fixture, mainly for defensive purposes. Once you begin the implanting process, it will take quite a bit of time, during which you may not do anything else. Once it IS implanted, however, no one will be able to pick it up, unless he has the ability to uproot a totem, which will take even longer than implanting it.

Totems are automatically against the enemies of whatever entity owns them. When implanted, it will be tuned against your enemies. When designated, it will be tuned against the enemies of whatever the new owner happens to be (see AB RUNELORE DESIGNATE). Once claimed,

organisationally-owned totems can be tuned against either the organisation's enemies or all but the organisation's members, and personally-owned totems can be tuned against either the owner's enemies or all but the owner's allies.

Details: With this ability you may designate an owner for a specific totem. Only the crafter of the totem may use this ability. The totem remains owned by the crafter until the designated owner (or a member of the designated owner organisation) CLAIMs the totem. If the totem is claimed, then the designated owner becomes the true owner. If the totem is rejected, then the crafter remains the owner. At that point the crafter may attempt another designation as desired. Houses, Cities, Orders, Oakstone, and individuals may own totems - clans may not.

When you designate a totem, its tuning is automatically set against the enemies of the new owner.
