School of Rune Cutting Wizard Subclass (Patreon)

Here's my first wizard subclass, and it's a big one! My aim with this school was to provide players with a way to use runic magic that was more historically accurate than it is in D&D's lore, so I sat down and did a lot of research about what magic runes actually were. The history of runic magic is really interesting, so I even included some of my research in the subclass description for you guys (although unless you're a big old nerd like me you're not obligated to read it). Based on my research, I managed to create options for thirteen somewhat-accurate magic runes.

Practitioners of rune cutting can create a number of different runes every day, although their usefulness may be limited without some creative thinking. If you're looking for ways to bolster your spells and deal more damage, this isn't the school for you- however, for those who enjoy solving problems and supporting their allies, it is ideal. It would also be a great choice for a wizard character with some Nordic flare, since all of these runes have their roots in Scandinavian or Icelandic history.

For the high quality PDF version of this subclass, hop on over to my patron dropbox where you can find all my public and private content alike. On a more serious note, the world is still looking scary in some ways and less scary in others: I hope you're all still managing to stay safe, and that you're managing to find joy despite all the hate that's spreading around.
