Diverse Runes

You have mastered more runes of power to etch into your armor.

Prerequisites: Heavy Armor Proficiency, Dwarf, Level 3

Benefit: You can inscribe your armor with more runes, ancestral or of your own invention. Your connection with these runes is especially strong; they grant a +2 bonus rather than a +1 bonus.

Example runes:

  • Chain-breaker: +2 damage bonus against objects, +2 bonus on sunder attempts, +2 bonus on Heal checks
  • Redeemer: +2 bonus on Diplomacy checks, Resistance 2 against cold, +1 bonus to leadership score
  • Kelethi Blood-Rune: +1 on attacks against bloodied creatures, +2 on Intimidate checks, +2 on saves against poison

At sixth level, the bonus increases by +1.
