Taking the fumble on an attempt at inspiration of a Power rune opposed to the one you want to raise would be an abuse of this magic. And first rolling the critical hit, then following up with a 00 on the critical hit effects is another blatant abuse. Sorry, but this rules proposal needs work. Just make GM be the one to choose when to use all the fail & fumble rolls, unless the PC elects to use a success (GM cannot override a PC's stated success, but can say "fine, that's a fail!" If the player is waffling). Quote C'es ne pas un .sig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, next year 17 hours ago, jajagappa said: But what would it mean to be Inspired by Fate? or Inspired by Luck? Or is it just a mechanism to allow casting of spells that use those Runes? It might be just a couple Runes used for new gameplay mechanisms, a bit like the Magic Rune for Sorcery (which I believe you can get, but doesn't have any inspiration mechanics?). For example, the Luck Rune affinity might be used for some Luck mechanism similar to the CoC one, but with a Gloranthan spin.

Or is it just a mechanism to allow casting of spells that use those Runes? inspired by fate : your fate (gm) could change your roll dice result because you have to succeed / failed / live / dye inspired by luck : your luck (gm) could change your roll dice, transforming a failure in success or a death in wounds. May be a kind of "hero point" that a player can (or the gm ?) burn in some specific situation Edited May 9, 2020 by French Desperate WindChild 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GianniVacca Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 FWIW we are using the Dream/Thella Rune and the Dragon Rune a lot in our Ignorance & Kralorela games. 2 Quote 「天朝大國」,https://rpggeek.com/rpgitem/92874/celestial-empire 很有意思: http://celestialempire.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ned Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Thread necromancy due to me just noticing an uncommon rune in an official publication: Rausa/Dusk rune, p.122 of The Guide, in a depiction fo the Lightbringer's Quest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ned Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Also, while I'm thinking about runes... Is there any other established use/meaning for the rune previously used for Godsday? The one that looks like half a Fate rune. Hmm... I note that in the Sourcebook p.135, the Fate rune = Wildday and Luck = Godsday in the, while the Guide p.112, uses Fate rune = Godsday and Luck = Wildday. I'm assuming the Sourcebook's in error.

I'm assuming the Sourcebook's in error. As I recall going way back to RQ2, Wildday was always the Luck Rune and Godsday the Fate Rune, and the calendar in the GM Pack also supports that, so yes I think the Sourcebook is in error. 3 hours ago, Ned said: Is there any other established use/meaning for the rune previously used for Godsday? The one that looks like half a Fate rune. Assuming you may mean this one: If so, that's variously the Rune of Theya (so the Dawn Rune vs. Rausa's Dusk Rune), or the Rune of the Gods World (i.e. Theism in HQ1), and in the DH alphabet it represents the sign for immortal deities and celestial beings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, see also the list of Common and uncommon runes on https://wellofdaliath.chaosium.com/home/gloranthan-documents/introduction-to-runes/ where Rausa has a different rune again, see also Theya.
