The first rune gave a bonus to a stat associated with the rune. The second rune gave training or focus in a skiil. The third rune was tied to their fate - for which I gave a miscellaneous bonus, often with a drawback.Yes, it upped the power level, but still manageable. If I had to do it over again, I would probably have done it differently, maybe toned it down a bit, especially the stat boost. Characters are still dying though, so it's not too gross an advantage. The players seemed to enjoy the flavour of it.</blockquote>
