Runes and Tattoo magic: Which system do you use?

Krug · Jun 7, 2003

There's been an overload of Rune Magic systems; I think practically every publisher has their own version. Which one do you use?

Same goes for Tattoo magic... which works best for you?

Rune Magic I use Realms
Tattoo Magic I use my own.

Tattoo magic I use R&R system (since I like it). Runes haven't decided since I don't use much rune casting.

Tattoos are for Psions (I use the SRD Psi version).

I haven't dealt with Runes yet.

Ditto for Rune, R&R for tatoo

I'd go with Realms for both, although I like the tattoos in the PsiHB. I'm still poking through most of my other sources—I just don't have the time to read and digest new supplements, so I may find something else I like better, but for now, this is where I'm at.

How (and in which product) does the FR deal with rune magic? I've got a Norse flavored campaign I'm working on and I'd be curious to see how it's handled there..

Cheers,

It's in the FRCS and (I think) there may be some information on it in Magic of Faerûn as well.

Tatoo -- use FR (the one in Lords of Darkness where tatoos are trated as magic items on the body and a craft tatoo feat needed for it, etc.). I like it compared to the one or two others I have seen (for my purposes anyway).

rune magic -- has not come up (yet) in the game. But, as I have only seen one (the one in FRCS), I don't have anything to compare it to.
