I'm thinking of adding Read Runes as a cultural feat for my next campaign (cultural feats work in a similar way to regional feats in the Players Guide to Faerun).
It'll be based on the 2nd level Cleric spell, Augury, in terms of the answers given and materials used but will be usable for any event (not just in the next 30 mins). The accuracy of the answer will be a DC of 15 +/- the character's Wisdom modifier. Usable once per day.
In order to balance the power of the feat, I was planning to make each use cost 100 XP (i.e. expensive at early levels and then relatively inexpensive at later levels).
Is the above balanced? Does the usability have to be less frequent? More expensive in XP?
I admit the feat is mainly for flavour, but it's also an attempt to have characters who can be local wise folk without having to have levels in Cleric.
