Overview

To some the greatest tragedy of the Cataclysm was not the fall of Erden or the separation of the gods from the mortal world but the loss of knowledge and skill it heralded. How many techniques and crafts were lost in the upheaval can scarcely be known, but those that endured did so through the combined efforts of the factions that rose up to stem the tide of artistic and technical erasure. One such faction is the Runewrights, an industrious collective of alchemists, artificers, blacksmiths, craftsfolk, and delvers who have dedicated themselves to ensuring the Enclaves and their protectors are equipped with the right tools and tonics for the task. These master artisans have learned to channel both magic and material through sigils of their own design, instilling their creations with incredible potency. While their combined crafts have made many victories possible in the decades since the Cataclysm, the Runewrights’ greatest efforts are focused not on what is known but on what lies beyond tomorrow. They are keenly aware that the best weapons, armor, potions, and implements for the challenges the Enclaves face perhaps haven’t been crafted yet. To this end, their workshops are always searching for new materials and experimenting with new processes, ever seeking to hone their techniques and to witness their creations in action firsthand. For the Twiceborn of the Runewrights, the realm of Liminalis is a remarkable testing ground and an invaluable access to new recipes and resources. Since the days of the Cataclysm, the mortal world is a dangerous place to venture alone; the Runewrights make sure its defenders take what they need to survive.
