Rune of Creation VII


Rune of Rending(Roan ot Thiakun-uk)
Necromancy/Transmutation
Level: Rmk 7, Sor/Wiz 7
Components: V, M
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 100 ft. + 10 ft. per level
Rune of Holding Target:1 object or creature
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: Fortitude Negates
Spell Resistance: Yes

This Rune works in a similar fashion to the Unmaking Rune. However, it only rends the life or substance from people or items. Upon uttering this Rune, the RuneMark may attempt to snuff the life force from his target or disintegrate objects made from organic materials. The target receives a Fortitude save. Failure results in death to a living target, and disintegration of organic materials. The target suffers 6d10 points Rune of Liquid Bridge of damage on a successful Fortitude save. Alternately the “rending” can be mental, requiring the target to make a successful Will save or suffer 1d6 points of permanent Intelligence, Wisdom and Charisma damage. In this instance, a successful Will save negates the effects of the spell. Finally, the Rune of Rending may be used by the RuneMarks to tear at the walls of a plane. The resulting may immediately open doors into other planes. However, the RuneMark may not see these portals, or know where they led without the use of a Rune of Expose. This form of the Rune is often used when the RuneMark must beat a hasty retreat from overwhelming enemy forces.

Material Components: Totem (RuneMark Only).
