Dhu Gillywack Runes

The Dhu Gillywack is an enormous airship run by gnomes. One of the shops on the ship has a series of runestones that, when cast, randomly show paired images.

Runestones

To activate the runestones you TOSS the RUNESTONES in the air. Like so:

You shake your branded fel runestones and toss them into the air. They spin wildly as they descend, and land with a clatter. The runestones finally settle and show a cloud symbol and a harvest rune.

It is very important to TAKE the RUNESTONES off the ground after each cast or they will stay there.

Runestone Samples

Here is a sample of what some of the runestones look like:

a pair of branded fel runestones a pair of granite runestones a pair of antique silver runestones a pair of bone-inlaid runestones
