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.
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.

|detail=You have reached a point in your study of the runic script that you may now begin to sketch runic configurations upon your runeblade. Only certain runes can be sketched in configuration, and they must always be sketched about one of the core runeblade runes: Nairat, Hugalaz, Eihwaz, or Pithakhan. Runes sketched in configuration become attuned under certain situations, and when in such a state can be empowered(*). The runes that can be sketched in configuration and their attunement conditions are now listed in the relevant ability file for that rune.<br>* Empowered runes fire their effects after a successful weaponmastery attack resolves: in the case of multiple hit attacks such as doubleslash or combination, they resolve after the entire attack has completed.<br>** Configuration conditions are only checked on the first hit of these multi hit attacks. Runewardens of the dual cutting or dual blunt specialisations should wield their configured runeblade in their left hand.<br>*** You may set an empower priority to automatically attempt to empower runes as they become attuned.

Latest revision as of 23:02, 15 July 2022

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

Additionally, you will be able to enhance your abilities with an empowered weapon, allowing you to prevent enemies from fleeing your grasp. This must be used in conjunction with the engage ability in Discipline, and requires an Isaz rune be sketched upon the ground(*).

Cooldown: 4.00 seconds of balance
Attune Effect: {{{attune}}}
Symbol: {{{symbol}}}
Details: You have reached a point in your study of the runic script that you may now begin to sketch runic configurations upon your runeblade. Only certain runes can be sketched in configuration, and they must always be sketched about one of the core runeblade runes: Nairat, Hugalaz, Eihwaz, or Pithakhan. Runes sketched in configuration become attuned under certain situations, and when in such a state can be empowered(*). The runes that can be sketched in configuration and their attunement conditions are now listed in the relevant ability file for that rune.
* Empowered runes fire their effects after a successful weaponmastery attack resolves: in the case of multiple hit attacks such as doubleslash or combination, they resolve after the entire attack has completed.
** Configuration conditions are only checked on the first hit of these multi hit attacks. Runewardens of the dual cutting or dual blunt specialisations should wield their configured runeblade in their left hand.
*** You may set an empower priority to automatically attempt to empower runes as they become attuned.

Implant Create a bond between your totem and the earth.
Syntax: IMPLANT TOTEM

Required:
Channels: {{{channels}}}
Shapes: {{{shapes}}}
Transitions: {{{transitions}}}
Attacks: {{{attacks}}}
Works against: Room
Cooldown:
Attune Effect: {{{attune}}}
Symbol: {{{symbol}}}
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.

This is the only way to clear the ownership on a totem.

Empower Enable smudge reporting.
Syntax: EMPOWER TOTEM
Required: 1000 mana
Channels: {{{channels}}}
Shapes: {{{shapes}}}
Transitions: {{{transitions}}}
Attacks: {{{attacks}}}
Works against:
Cooldown: 5.00 seconds of equilibrium
Attune Effect: {{{attune}}}
Symbol: {{{symbol}}}
Details: With this ability, you may empower any totem to report attempts to smudge any of its runes, or to uproot the totem proper.

Empowerment has a small chance of fading every Achaean day that passes, after which it will cease reporting and must be re-empowered.

Designate Arrange clear title and ownership.
Syntax: DESIGNATE <person> AS OWNER OF <totem>
DESIGNATE ORDER OF <deity> AS OWNER OF <totem>
DESIGNATE <organisation> AS OWNER OF <totem>
CLAIM <totem>
REJECT <totem>

Channels: {{{channels}}}
Shapes: {{{shapes}}}
Transitions: {{{transitions}}}
Attacks: {{{attacks}}}
Works against:
Cooldown: 3.00 seconds of balance
Attune Effect: {{{attune}}}
Symbol: {{{symbol}}}
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.

Bisect As relentless as the storm.
Syntax: BISECT <target> [venom]
Required:
Channels: {{{channels}}}
Shapes: {{{shapes}}}
Transitions: {{{transitions}}}
Attacks: {{{attacks}}}
Works against: Adventurers
Cooldown: 4.00 seconds of balance
Attune Effect: {{{attune}}}
Symbol: {{{symbol}}}
Details: While wielding an edged runeblade of some form with the hugalaz rune sketched upon the blade, you may attempt to bisect your foe with a single empowered strike(*).
* This is a multi damage typed ability that deals first lightning damage then cutting damage.
** If your target is at 25% of their health or lower when the cutting damage would be applied, they will be slain outright instead.
*** Notably, this attack bypasses auras of rebounding and reflections but leaves them intact.

Adapt Battle waits for no one.

Attacks: {{{attacks}}}
Works against:
Cooldown:
Attune Effect: {{{attune}}}
Symbol: {{{symbol}}}
Details: When you wield a runeblade with a configuration upon the blade, usually it takes a short while for the runic configuration to become active. However, the true master of runelore has learned to adapt him or herself to a change in the flow of battle and to turn this to their advantage: thus, when swapping from runeblade to another runeblade in your primary hand of a different type(*), you may eliminate this delay entirely(**).
* Going from say, a scimitar to a battleaxe or flail to a morningstar would let you skip the delay in a runic configuration becoming active. Going from a scimitar to a scimitar would not.
** You may only adapt once every 10 seconds or so.
