Runic Carving

At 1st level when you pick this class, you gain the ability to use Runes. Your amount of base runes per level is detailed in the class features table. That number plus your intelligence modifier is how many runes you have. Each rune can be engraved with a single runic carving, detailed in the 'Carvings' section. Some of these carvings require flow to activate. Your amount of flow is also detailed in the class features table. That number plus your wisdom modifier is your maximum flow. After a short rest, you gain back an amount of flow equal to your wisdom modifier times your levels in Runemaster (a minimum of 0) . After a long rest, you gain back all of your flow.

Recarving

At 2nd level, you gain the ability to recarve. After a long rest, you can expend half of your flow to change a single one of your runes.
