Namakan Minor Form Lists

Rules system: homebrew Sancturi system (2016-2019 documents; these lists 2018).

Lore: the practice is on Namakan Runecasting.

Contested

This page is named in the open question Namakan class form lists. Perdition is a Runekeeper form in S249 and its document code (k) but a Runepriest form in S250; Light and Earth are shared with the keeper and the priest respectively by their document codes, and the other way round in S249's Runemage list.

Legacy design material, not canon for play: how anything works at the table is defined by ARCS. Eight Namakan rune forms survive only as a sentence and a table of rune names by rank, or less, all from December of 2018. Each has a section here, newest document first. Only the Inquest form has any rules, two sigils. The letters after each form name are its document's class code: k Runekeeper, m Runemage, p Runepriest. The core rules are on Namakan Runecasting.

The Air, Fire and Water forms (m) and the Command form (k) also had documents, but they were empty and were discarded.

Light (mk)

Runes (mk) Light (S269) has one rune and no table:

  • Praedaem: "Absorption - absorbs hollowing energies. These runes are subject runes and last until their energy is absorbed." For hollowing, see Hollows.

Bane (p)

"The Bane form reacts violently with specific energies or turns energies against themselves. Most of these forms are used as weapon runes" (S271).

Gap

None of these runes has a card: no runeword, complexity, rune-type or effect beyond the parenthetical notes. The Unholy form's Consecration and Desecration share their names with the Runepriest's Consecration form (S249) and the Animate form's Grandmaster rune (S251); no source says whether they are the same.
