On Thread Etiquette:
I'm not going to weigh in on the logic of either side's arguments, but I will ask that everyone read over what they write and really consider if the words they used are polite and won't be inflammatory intentionally or not. You cant account for people's tolerances perfectly but at least try to say your piece without saying things that can be easily construed as overly dismissive of the other side of the argument, thank you.

Please endeavour to be cordial. :^)

List of Esoteric Infrastructure​

Khazagar. Massive learning and experimentation facility, housing Smelter One, Two, Three, and Four. Thick with the Deep Magic due to repeated Runes of Siphoning. Connected magically to Barak Azamar and Skarrenbakraz by an unintended ritual. Construction begun Turn 47, finished Turn 52.

Smelter One. It defined the specifications and runic configuration for the dry-type smelters. Constructed out of Pure Gromril and designed to withstand immense heat. Its runic configuration was the Expurgation combo using the Talismanic Master Rune of Purification, Spellbreaking, and Warding. Capable of producing one bar of Adamant every other decade without Wyrm blood. Significant waste heat which causes the smelter's body to glow a dark orange during the cool down cycle. Construction begun and completed during Turn 16. Total production: 0.5 bars/turn.

Smelter Two. Another dry-type smelter, its construction specs and rune configuration were largely identical to Smelter One. Construction begun and completed during Turn 17. Total production now: 1 bar/turn.

Smelter Three. Our first wet-type smelter, designed in collaboration with the Brotherhood of Dron to incorporate Elder Wyrm Blood into the crucible chamber. Capable of producing one bar every decade as the energy within the Wyrm blood fueled the reaction. Waste heat still significant. Construction begun Turn 22, finished during Turn 23. Total Adamant production now: 2 bars/turn. Total Dragon Essence distillation now: 1 unit/turn.

The Rune of Siphoning. Improves recharge rate of other runes within its area of effect. Incomplete structural version invented during Turn 47. Introduction of a completed structural Siphoning around the first three smelters during Turn 50 halved smelter recharge time. Banner was also completed. Total Adamant production now: 4 bars/turn. Total Dragon Essence distillation now: 2 units/turn.

Karstah's Greater Dragonblood (GD-type) Smelter or Smelter Four. A redesign of our wet-type smelters. Made entirely from Adamant and using new Wyrm blood storage, pipes, and valves to control liquid flow during the reaction. Its runic configuration was devised by Karstah, using the Structural Master Rune of Purification, Rune of Vigorous Furnace, and the Rune of Forgeflame: The True Adamant Maker combo. Configuration must be inscribed upon Adamant and enables a GD-type to produce 3 bars per turn, then double that with Siphoning. Waste heat issue solved by the new Runes. Construction begun Turn 54, finished Turn 55. Total Adamant production now: 10 bars/turn. Total Dragon Essence distillation now: 3 units/turn.

Current Adamant Production is: 10 bars/turn. Total Dragon Essence distillation now: 3 units/turn.

━<><><><==><><><>━​

Monumental Construction Facility. A workshop for the construction of Monumental projects, as well as a high energy experiments facility. Built around the Chamon and Aqshy Arcane Fulcrum called the Anvil of the Earth. Construction begun and completed by Kraka Drakk workers during turn 58.

Smelter Five. A GD-type. Construction begun Turn 58 by Karstah, finished by Karstah on Turn ??. Located within range of a Waystone close to the Anvil Facility. Total Adamant production projected to be: 16 bars/turn. Total Dragon Essence distillation projected to be: 4 units/turn.

Hmm I check the Vault man its a good thing we alrady have 4 Greedy TH. So we dont have to order another though we should order another one next turn since If i remember right were planning to use it on our Dragon Gronti heart.

We're requesting two hearts in the current plans. Those are earmarked for Brynbar. We'll need at least one more for the Dragon Gronti's heart, but that's a currently distant need so we don't need it right now.

Honestly Depending on How much of the storm the Dragon eats. Monumental Projects each time a storm occurs migh a great idea.

We know bigger size means more enrgy is needed afterall.

Id love to Make a T5 Monumental War Machine for our Heartguard or T5 Healing Monument for the Hold whenever it goes to war should give us some great Valaya favors too.
 
Depending on how frequent storms are, I'd quite like to make another monumental Gronti after compressing the Empowered Waking combo

I'd still like to make a giant Grimnir the Warrior one day, and if we have the scaled up adamant production then something like MRoEmpowered Awakening + Rune of Dawi + Ancestor Rune of Grimnir on a Grimnir shaped gronti could potentially combo, as it has a strong theme, particular as the effects of Ancestor runes manifest deifferently depending on the fomr of what they're placed on, and being on a Grimnir shaped Gronti seems likely to focus its effects in a particular way.

We could even do fun things like experiment with things giving the gronti a circulatory system in which Grimnirzan flows through a talismanic heart with appropriate runes, such as a Master Rune of Dawi, to see if it can better carry and distribute power around a gronti.

Oh dear god.

Well I'll start with the smaller posts first then go through @Carcer and @BananaBuddy 's over time and edit as I go.

Master Rune of Smednir (Weapon): A bevy of effects: It carries both the heat and strength of the Master Rune of Conduction and the shattering effect of the Master Rune of Breaking. However, when used for metalwork is when it truly shines most of all, for it burns out both unwanted magic and mundane contaminants with each and every blow.

By tradition it is placed on a hammer in emulation of Azulokrid. Whether it has to, has to, or it is merely tradition, is a matter of some debate.

#Metal, #On Attack, #On Hit, #Magic, #Constant, #Offensive, #Utility, #Elemental, #Physical, #Metal

Master Rune of Smednir (Talismanic): A Rune meant to aid the Smith more than it is meant to aid the work, so to speak. The bearer becomes nearly-immune to accidents from forging, regenerating from dropping a hammer and breaking a finger in mere minutes though in return it pretty well caps out at that scale; is left (nearly, it's a big world) immune to even the hottest of fires; and is completely Tireless, so that they may properly finish the work rather than, say, passing out.

#Constant, #Utility, #Elemental, #Physical, #Metal, #Defensive, #Augment, #Solo

Master Rune of Ungradum Bungrimsson: The bearer has regeneration that functions identically to a troll's.

Created by the Runesmith Ungradum Bungrimsson of Karak Izril, who was commissioned to create a suit of armor that would "keep its wearer alive through the worst of fighting." So he sought out the hardest thing to kill he could find, a troll, and then worked to copy it.

#Odd, #Solo, #Physical, #Defensive, #Augment, #Constant

Master Rune of Destabilization (Talismanic): There are plenty of Runes that banish Daemons, this however banishes anything summoned from the Aethyr: Daemons, of course, who even likes them, but also Elementals, the Undead, the Incarnates: if it is summoned and sustained by magic, that connection is severed and burned away. At the moment, unfortunately, it can induce such destabilization in only a single enemy at a time rather than whole legions.

Ungradum of Izril, a...straightforward...Runesmith to be sure, had several run-ins with Elementals enslaved by Fimir.

He desires not to endure such run-ins again.

#Cast, #Offensive, #Solo, #Curse, #Grudge, #Magic

#Rune-Ideas
--
I know you said we didn't have to repost, but I figured I would with the new ones I came up with just to make keeping track of them all a little easier.

For M.Smednir Talismanic, to me the regeneration scale would be like, "Drop Hammer and Break Foot Bad"? Yeah.

But "Catch Catapult to Face?" Nah.
Click to expand...
Click to shrink...
Smednir (weapon): Too close to purification, will remove the magic part.
Smednir (talismanic): Idea is nice, will probably edit a few things to make the effect stronger but be location specific to a Forge/be in the presence of forge related stuff I think.
Ungradum Bungrimsson: Aight. Will add
Destabilization: Neato. Will add. There's already Daemonflame, this might be an off shoot/variant.

[Structural, Lonely] Master Rune of Grungni's Prodigal Wisdom: Each AP used to conduct research has a minor (~33%) chance to proc extra Progress.
#Constant #Augment #Utility #AoE #Mental #Odd

[Structural, Lonely] Master Rune of Thungni's Revelatory Insight: Every 2 AP used on researching Runes has a small chance of gaining a divine revelation/vision (similar to how Snorri Gift-Giver developed the Master Rune of Purification).
#Constant #Augment #Utility #AoE #Mental #Meta #Odd

[Structural] Master Rune of Daemonward: Allies under the effects of a structure bearing this master rune find their morale bolstered against daemonkind and gain combat bonuses against them, while daemons are burned within its field of effect and take penalties to all actions. This effect is even more pronounced against daemonic spellcasters.
#Constant #Augment #Curse #Defensive #Mental #AoE #Magic #IFF

[Structural] Master Rune of Chaosward: Allies gain a morale and combat bonus while fighting against Chaos-touched entities; such entities are burned while within effect range, and take penalties. Casters aligned to Chaos take even more penalties, their ability to cast magic severely hindered by the power of this Master Rune.
#Constant #Augment #Curse #Defensive #Mental #AoE #Magic #IFF

[Structural, Lonely] Master Rune of Valaya's Hallowed Presence: Structures inscribed with this Master Rune must depict an image/statue of Valaya, and sanctified by a High Priestess of Valaya (first part mandatory; second part tradition). Allied defenders under the effects of this Lonely Rune are Unbreakable, Tireless, and gain Regeneration. Cleanses allies afflicted by enemy magic, such as Nurgle's Rot, every 2 turns, as their bodies grow feverish from having malicious magic purged by runic power. Invaders, especially magical entities, spellcasters, and Chaos-aligned beings, suffer debuffs within the vicinity of the structure, their very essence seared and burned. In addition, their magics and empowerment effects will be negated every 2 turns, the magics within unmade and converted into heat and light that sears the afflicted enemies inside out.

Master Rune of Grungni's Prodigal Wisdom: I think the idea is sound. Mechanics may be too nuts/get changed. It'll definitely be a Lonely Rune.
Master Rune of Thungni's Revelatory Insight: Iffy on this. Editing it would make it too close to Durin's Master Rune of Thungni's Eye tho. Maybe a variant of that.
Master Rune of Daemonward: Added
Master Rune of Chaosward: Added
Master Rune of Valaya's Hallowed Presence: This and Grace have a lot in common, may change and delineate which ones do what/merge them unsure.

BungieONI said:
#rune-ideas

Future Master Rune of Valaya's Grace: Friendlies within the structure are immune to mundane and magical sources of fatigue, disease, and poison. Everyone within the structure is kept perfectly comfortable, their emotions buoyed against the woes of an evil world. As the ills and woes are washed away, so are wounds, flesh and bone and limbs and delicate organs healed and restored by Valaya's care.

#Future Rune #Structural #Constant #Augment #Defensive #Utility #IFF #AOE #Magic


@soulcake I'm envisioning this as a hypothetical rune derived from a chain of Compressions involving the Master Rune of Hearthward, Plaguebane, Regular Triage, Regular Tireless, Vitality, Healing, and Valaya. Possibly some others also being required, like Sanctuary/Other magic resistance runes, and healing runes.

If this ends up being a Lonely Rune I am A-Okay with that, frankly I expect it to be because it's juiced to all heck.

So #Rune-Ideas is open again! Good chapter enjoyed the moments with the dragon and the Burudin banter. Here are my Rune ideas! @soulcake
Rune of Grimnir's Focus

Increased focus and cancels out negative mental effects from other runes such as runes that would increase someone's strength but make them rage. This rune would allow for the positives but never allow the user to low focus in combat.

#Weapon #Constant #Augment #Mental #Solo #Meta

Rune of Reverse blow

Any Hits to a foe will deliver the blow to the other side of where the blow was landed. For example, hitting someone on the chest will make it as if the blow landed on the foes back.

#Weapon #Odd #Physical #Offensive #On Hit #Solo

Rune of Forgetfulness

Enemies stuck by this rune will slowly lose memories related to combat and will become less skillful the longer the fight goes on. This rune is much less effective against mindless monsters and beasts that fight on instincts. Wears off over time.

#Weapon #Odd #Mental #Offensive #On Hit #Solo #Curse

MR of Phantom Throw

Users are able to throw a phantom copy of the weapon.

#Weapon #Odd #Offensive #Activation
MR of Depth Diving

Wearer is able to survive extreme pressures from underwater depth and is able to breath underwater as if the water was air.

#Armour #Constant #Augment #Solo #Defensive #Utility #Odd
MR of The Bull's Folly

Followers of Hashut under the effect of this rune are extremely more disorganised and less effective in combat. All magic from the Lore of Hashut has greatly increased miscast chance.

#Banner #Constant #Multi #IFF #Curse #Grudge #Magic #Mental #AOE

MR of The Icebreaker (Boat sail)

Boats with this banner and nearby friendly boats are able to sail through frozen waters as if it were normal water.

#Banner #Constant #Multi #IFF #Augment #Utility #AOE #Physical #Shiprune
Rune of Clear Winds

The Winds of magic naturally repel themselves from each other. This rune increases the strength of the individual winds ability to repel themselves from other winds. Making its more difficult for mages to combine winds or for Dhar to form.

#Talismanic #Magic #AOE #Constant #Power

Rune of Controlled States

You are able to control the state of matter of most materials inside of containers.

#Talismanic #AOE #Cast #Alchemy #Utility #Activation

Rune of Stability

Materials under the effect of this rune will not undertake chemical reactions or magical decay/reactions. This rune has odd interaction with Warpstone.

#Talismanic #AOE #Constant #Utility #Magic #Physical

Rune of Sequestering

Liquids under the effect will not mix together. I.E just like trying to mix water and oil

#Talismanic #AOE #Constant #Utility #Physical #Alchemy

Rune of Pressure

Containers under the effect can control the pressure inside to be higher or lower.

#Talismanic #Enchantment #Cast #Utility #Physical #Activation

Rune of Infecting Fire

Water effected by this rune will ignite anything in comes in Contact with.

#Talismanic #Odd #Elemental #Alchemy

Rune of Lesser requirements

This rune decreases the activation energy required for any chemical/alchemical reaction and magical reaction.

#Talismanic #Alchemy #Magic #Utility #Constant
MR of Permafrost

When activated War machines with this rune will send out a wave of cold around the machine freezing everything nearby. When inscribed on a boat the activation of the rune will freeze the surrounding waters.

#Engineering #Elemental #AOE #Activation #Defensive #Shiprune

Rune of Lessened Threat

War machines with this rune will be perceived by foes as less dangerous than they actually are, leading them to ignore them. A large foe might look upon a war machine with the rune a believe it would not be able to damage them for example.

#Engineering #Multi #Augment #Enchantment #Mental #Constant

Rune of Morgrim's efficiency

Other runes inscribe with this rune will have more potent effects and over time will become more efficient and require less energy to function.

#Engineering #Enchantment #Meta #Power #Constant #Utility
Rune of Gazul's Gaze

The corpses of dead Dawi are highlighted to the wearer and can be seen through objects.

#Engineering #Prosthetics #Augment #Constant #IFF

Rune of Miner's Sight

Ore deposits and Gem deposits are visible through stone

#Engineering #Prosthetics #Augment #Constant #Physical
MR of Shifting stone

Walls inscribed with this rune can be walked through by Dawi and Gronti. Dawi are somehow able to breath while in the rune, but this rune should not be used to hide in walls only pass through them.

#Structual #Constant #IFF #Enchantment #Utility #Physical

Rune of Shifting Stone

Gronti can walk through walls that have this rune inscribed on it

#Rune-Ideas

It's been a long time since I've written one, but the new ones inspired me

Rune of Mother's Intuition (Talisman)

The rune used to confirm the continued survival of a dwarf. This Rune uses the blood of a single dwarf and is linked to the dwarf's life. It glows with a steady soft light, glowing brighter the closer they are, but flickers when the dwarf is badly injured. When the dwarf dies the Rune shatters along with the object it is forged on. It was created by a mother, whose son was lost to the Fimir, but swore to everyone he was still alive. It wasn't until decades later, that her son was rescued. She swore, never again, and created this rune to always know the status of her children. Multiple copies of the rune increase location ability range.

This rune is extremely popular with warriors, rangers, and especially Runelords and Zorn.

"Come here child, mommy only needs a mug of your blood for the nice Runesmith. Then I'll know you're safe and how to find you forever."

"Bah, I only sealed my workshop for two centuries. Barely even finished the initial work on a new Master Rune.

*Grumble*

You beardlings, excited by every little thing. Here, take this and stop bothering me." Throws a statue in his likeness, name and rune on it.

So yeah, originally this rune was supposed to have been made by a Runelord tired of his family and students worrying about his century, long research binges. But then I got inspired.

But Fuck the thing that makes me so happy is that we finally, after Four Years of questing, we have a successful Master Rune of Waking Combo. So much relief and happiness I'm feeling right now.

I can't wait to Compress it into a Master Rune! That, alongside finishing the below research projects, should let us make some truly interesting and powerful gronti.

[ ] [Difficult] The Movement of Things Pt. 6b, The Body: [Cost: (10 -4) =6 actions] Master of the Odd and Mind for Constructs will proc. Continuing your work on the Rune of Waking Elements, you want the Rune to be able to form a body from almost any surrounding material. Realistically you doubt you can do that, but getting as close as possible is still the goal. At the very least you want these Elemental Gronti to mimic Mhorni's ability as closely as possible.

[ ] [Difficult] The Movement of Things Pt. 6c, The Soul: [Cost: (10 -6) =4 actions] Master of the Odd and Mind for Constructs will proc. You "know," what Mhorni is, you think, but your investigations decades prior left you empty-handed. Now, armed with hopefully better tools and better understanding, you wish to tackle the questions you made all those years ago. Why did Mhorni bind itself, why was it not turned into energy, why do the Runes seem perfectly happy to assist it as they do you? Why, why and more whys. You won't get all the answers immediately you imagine, but the path is open.

Of course, what we really ought to do is Compress our combo and combine it with what we get from the main Movement tree. Not quite sure how the double siphoning will play with each other but it's the best starting point we got. Besides, there's more to the combination than the magic intake. Maybe that will end up minimized when we Compress the combo into a Master Rune.

To go beyond the Rune of Siphoning, to create something that can dredge anything close to the amount of power the Central Array of Karag Dron can, you must improve your understanding of the Monoliths, and the flow of magic first. It will likely take a long, long time until that's the case.

The Brotherhood would be greatly interested in a collated and substantial set of notes about your experiences with the recent "Extreme Magical Turbulence and Concentration Event," as well as anything you'd be willing to give regarding your time crafting at the Anvil of the Earth. High energy environments of such a nature naturally attract the attention of your fellow members given the energy costs of generating Adamant.

Now that I think about it, we really should write the report analyzing our storm-forging experience before we do it again.

Ideally, we would do this before we forge our new equipment meant to help us withstand the next forge, but I don't think there's any spare AP for that unfortunately.

Thoughts @BungieONI @Xepheria?

Smednir (weapon): Too close to purification, will remove the magic part.
Smednir (talismanic): Idea is nice, will probably edit a few things to make the effect stronger but be location specific to a Forge/be in the presence of forge related stuff I think.
Ungradum Bungrimsson: Aight. Will add
Destabilization: Neato. Will add. There's already Daemonflame, this might be an off shoot/variant

I'm planning to do it turn 59.

Along with progressing Anoqeyan, examining KKR, and getting started on Retainer training.

If Yorri shows up T59 (and we get prods from Windsight), which indirectly frees up AP due to not needing to drop stuff into Waystones, then it's a very solid shout, I agree.

Also very funny; 'here's my report on what happened last time, now watch me do it again but BIGGER'
 
Ngl, more ap is good but I hope Yorri would come after we examine KKR. Not to throw shade, I believe plans have been sensible and well thought but it's kinda hilarious from an in universe perpective. I imagine if he finds out we didn't even look at the hammer for decades he may very well drown us in troll tongue.
