Overview

A runeforge is a structure that allows for the creation of unique magic items, or for schemata - special items that will allow someone to learn how to construct a new item.

The creation of a runeforge results in the creation of an Imperial title; a foreperson who oversees the direction of the forge's researches.

Command of a runeforge would be re-elected annually.

Senate Commissions

The Imperial Senate may pass a motion for the construction of a college of magic. The senate must decide which territory the college is constructed in, and which region within that territory it will occupy.

It is also possible for the Senate to pass a motion to upgrade a college, increasing the benefits that it provides.?

Benefits

While the college of magic is in operation the master can direct the magicians associated with it to research the formulation of specific rituals.

Downtime

2 Downtimes to research a new item. Produces a single one year copy of the item. Character in charge of the forge may at that point learn the ability to make the item if they spend 1xp.

An artisan may spend ilium to make a schematic using one month of downtime. It's the same cost as making an artifact of that item. The character receives a schematic - instead of the artefact.

The Senate could vote to spread the knowledge of the schematic - it would cost 10 Thrones (and the schematic). The Senate could devolve that voting power to another body.

Timeless Hammer Rythem cannot make a schematic

Costs

  • Materials: 50 WG 40 Mi 30 WW
  • Time: 3 months to construct per 50 wains of materials used
  • Labour: 30 Thrones
  • Upkeep: 25 Thrones

Limitations

The Empire can only support so many runeforges. Each runeforge has an increased upkeep cost to reflect competition for the attention of NPC artisans and researchers as well as rare materials.

Responsibility

The master is responsible for directing the research of the runeforge.

Recent Colleges
