Rune Scribe
Reality may be programmed with the one true written language. The one which all matter knows and acts accordingly. While extreme measures have been taken to nullify the proliferation of the Runes, some degree of practical magics, defensive, and offensive magics can still be found, usually in rare places and among the true wealthy.
Rune Scribe: Practical Magics
Practical Magics are taught through the somatic execution of writing runes in the air combined with verbalizing their concept. Many who use them are completely unaware of the fact they’re writing, as this usually looks akin to a conductor waving rhythm into the wind. Practical Magics Runes last 10 Hours.
Practical Magics
Firefly Rune • Hygiene Rune • Render Object Immobile • Store Item & Recall Item
Rune Scribe: Defensive Cursive
Among the most common Runes are the Defensive Cursives. The two forms of Defensive Cursive draw on the Emotional Reaction of Fear or Surprise to Trigger against incoming attacks or latches.

Rune Scribe: Minor Elementalism
Minor Elementalism runes are much more rare than Practical Magics. While they are mostly used for practical reasons such as a bonfire to cook over, summoning stone structures to camp in, produce clean water for drinking or putting out fires, or protect from extreme temperatures and create magical air conditioning, some of them are often used offensively and defensively. These runes also have Triggers which may be built into them. Minor Elementalism Runes last 10 Hours

Flame Rune • Water Rune • Air Rune • Stone Rune
Rune Scribe: Three Triggers
The Three Triggers may be added to Runes to adjust how they are Activated.
Three Triggers
Proximity Trigger • Command Trigger • Time Trigger
Rune Scribe: Palm Glyph
A Character may have as many Palm Glyphs as they have Palms on Hands. Palm Glyphs are not consumed when used, but cause Physical Stress as the Character serves as the direct powering force for the Glyphs. However, Glyphs placed on other Characters are consumed the first time they’re used. Palm Glyphs last 10 Hours.

Rune Scribe: Semi-Permanency
Any Semi-Permanent Rune Scribed by your Character Lasts until overwritten or triggered, for example personal Palm Glyphs no longer require rescribing. A Character may have a maximum number of Semi-Permanent Runes equal to their Awareness Score. Runes may also be rigged to Trigger with open Conditional Statements.
