Dark Mistress
First Post
This product is 10 pages long. The first 3 pages deals with what runic feats are and how to use them, along with a list of the Runic feats. It talks about using them in the campaign, how they are used, how many you can have etc. The runes are listed below.
Air Jaunt – Brief flight
Blacklife – bonus to Necromancy
Bladedance – Helps to parry.
Cindershard – deals fire damage on melee attacks.
Death – gives bonus to killing something with massive damage
Draft Master – Allows the drafting(writing) of runes on others.
Enfeeble – weakens foes.
Falter – slows foes.
Feign Death – makes you appear dead.
Iceflame – change damage type.
Ironguard – grants AC bonus in full defense.
Life Warden – gives AC bonus to those you heal.
Mystify – causes penalty to perception and sense motive
Narrow-Minded – bonus to will save
Panacea – bonus hp to healing spells.
Rage – enrages foes
Rune Master – gain more benfits with runic feats.
Seaborne – bonus to swim
Shadowlight – blind foe
Silvergate – bonus to summoning spells.
Soul Ward – bonus to abjuration spells
Surge – bonus to jump and surprise initiative
Third Eye – bonus to divination spells
Thunderstrike – deals sonic and electrical dmg on melee attacks
Veil – bonus to stealth
Whitefire – bonus to evocation spells
The next 6 pages is taken up by the runic feats themselves. With a final page for OGL.
Closing thoughts: I like the concept of runic feats and minor magic. Not everyone will allow them for everyone and the book talks about that. None of them are overly powerful about on par with a strong cantrip at most. Coupled with the limitations on how many you can have and prerequest I feel they are well balanced on the whole. The art work is fair. This is a bit thinner than recent SGG books clocking in at 10 pages for 2.99 but still worth the price. Once more my biggest complain which is often the case with SGG books is... not enough. Great concept, great start but I want more. If the idea of feats that allow minor magic interest you then I highly recommend this book. I am giving it a 4.5 star.
