Welcome to Imythess, the border between dreams and reality. We hope you enjoy your visit.

Imythess is a creative writing board where you narrate the story of a character in the medieval land of Imythess, on the planet Chaon. Each topic is an opportunity for your character to interact with the world and its peoples by cooperatively writing pieces of a story with other members, one post at a time. We call this role-playing, because you assume the identity of your character as if it were your own.

In order to play, you must register an account for each character you would like to write about, and begin their tale by filling out their basic profile information: Race (human, elf, demon, etc.), class (warrior, mage, etc.), physical appearance, and any other personal details you would like to describe. You are also encouraged to come up with some background history information for what your character's life has been like up to the point at which their story in Imythess begins.

There is no approval process or application required to join, so long as you follow the rules then you are free to write whatever character details you choose. Registration is simple, fast, and completely free.

So, I can't help but wonder about this as I get back to playing Skyrim.

Arcane Runes.

Not the tattoos, I mean actual runes, like traps and such. I know there are a few spells, or at least one, that is an actual rune which can be placed on the ground, and the Radiant PrC has runes, but as far as runes go we seem to be kind of lacking.

Is there absolutely any way to actually have runes without being Radiant, or is the Snaring Rune in the GRP Ticket shop it?

Just a thought as I wake up before my coffee:

If there are no runes, what about a feat that allows spells to be placed as runes? Only one active rune at a time, and proximity of 5 feet activates the rune. All spells are centered on the rune!

Could be nifty. Could be terribly, horribly broken. =O

I wouldn't mind runes actually requiring somebody to step on them to be activated, even trap ones. Surely it would be balance-able with things like Stealth, Escape Artist, Lightning Reflexes, etc.

Well, if there are no runes (I can't think of any off hand), then you could write up a suggestion! =D

Just as an aside, the Inksmith cPrC has an ability very similar to this called Graffiti:

Quote:
 

Graffiti: The Inksmith can apply their tattoo designs to other media such as cloth, metal, or stone. Graffiti can be used as arcane mines [read: RUNES], or etched into weapons (which takes up an enchantment slot), though their usage limited by the standards of Still Life. An Inksmith must have a direct line of sight in order to activate their Graffiti.
