turn.

Invocation As a free action, the rune-bearer can Fly up to 60 feet toward a creature that has damaged them in the last minute. If they end this movement adjacent to the creature, the creature becomes off-guard until the end of the runebearer’s next turn.

TROLISTRI, RUNE OF FORLORN SORROW RUNE 9
ARCANE ELF EMOTION MENTAL RUNE RUNESMITH
Usage etched onto armor or a creature
This rune calls to mind the forlorn nature of elves, and the
beauty within it. While this rune is beautiful, sorrow is best
admired from a distance, discouraging approach. Enemies
within 20 feet of the rune-bearer treat all squares between
them and the rune-bearer as difficult terrain.
Invocation Sorrow blots out the capacity for any other
action. Each enemy within 20 feet of the rune-bearer must
succeed at a Will saving throw or be slowed 1 as it spends
the first action of its next turn sobbing (or slowed 2 on a
critical failure). Regardless of the outcome, the creature
is then temporarily immune to this invocation for 1 hour

INVOKE RUNE [one-action] INVOCATION MAGICAL RUNESMITH You utter the name of one or more of your runes within 30 feet. The rune blazes with power, applying the effect in its Invocation entry. The rune then fades away, its task completed. You can invoke any number of runes with a single Invoke Rune action, but creatures that would be affected by multiple copies of the same specific rune are affected only once, as normal for duplicate effects.
TRACE RUNE [one-action] OR [two-actions] CONCENTRATE MAGICAL MANIPULATE RUNESMITH Requirements You have a hand free or are holding an artisan’s toolkit. Your fingers dance, glowing light leaving behind the image of a rune. You apply one rune to an adjacent target matching the rune’s Usage description. The rune remains until the end of your next turn. If you spend 2 actions to Trace a Rune, you draw the rune in the air and it appears on a target within 30 feet. You can have any number of runes applied in this way.

RESTORATIVE TELEPORTATION [reaction] HEALING Frequency once per minute Trigger You arrive at a location via a teleportation effect Effect When you reappear after the teleportation, your body takes advantage of the teleportation to put itself back together in a healthier state, and you restore a number of Hit Points equal to 1d6 plus your level plus your Intelligence modifier

ENGRAVING STRIKE [one-action] FEAT 1 RUNESMITH Frequency once per round Requirements You are wielding a melee weapon.

FORTIFYING KNOCK [one-action] FEAT 2 RUNESMITH Frequency once per round Requirements You are wielding a shield. Your shield is a natural canvas for your art. In one motion, you Raise a Shield and Trace a Rune on your shield.

BACKUP RUNIC ENHANCEMENT FEAT 1 RUNESMITH While you are not a spellcaster, you have a working knowledge of the most fundamental of runic magic. You can cast the sigil cantrip as an innate spell at will. Once per day, you can cast your choice of either runic body or runic weapon as an innate spell. The rank of these spells is equal to half your level, rounded up, and the tradition can be any tradition for which you are at least trained in the related skill.

GHOSTLY RESONANCE FEAT 4
RUNESMITH
Your runes can not only draw power from the world of the spirits, but they can let even the most mundane objects harm spiritual beings as well. You can choose to grant any creature or item bearing one of your divine or occult runes the benefits of a ghost touch rune for as long as they are bearing your rune.

RUNIC REPRISAL FEAT 6 INVOCATION RUNESMITH Prerequisites Fortifying Knock When you raise your shield, you bury a runic trap into it, to be set off by the clash of an enemy weapon. When you use Fortifying Knock, you can trace a damaging rune on your shield, even if it could not normally be applied to a shield. The traced rune doesn’t have its normal effect, instead fading into your shield. If you Shield Block with the shield against an adjacent target, you can Invoke the Rune as part of the reaction, causing the rune to detonate outwards and apply its invocation effect to the attacking creature.

TRACING TRANCE [free-action] FEAT 6 RUNESMITH Trigger Your turn begins. Your hands flow unbidden, tracing runes as if by purest instinct. You become quickened until the end of your turn and can use the extra action only to Trace Runes, including to supply 1 action if using the 2-action version of Trace Rune. Absorbed in the act of creation, you can’t use any invocation actions this turn.

OATH OF THE DEFENDER FEAT 2
CHAMPION OATH
During your daily preparations, you can
swear an oath to defend against a certain
kind of enemy during your deeds that day.
Choose aberrations, celestials, dragons,
fiends, or undead. You can’t choose celestials
if you’re holy, nor can you choose fiends if you’re
unholy. You gain an edict to defend against creatures of
that kind.
Allies in your champion’s aura, not including you,
get resistance 2 to damage dealt by creatures with the
chosen trait. If such a creature deals more than one damage
type at once, apply this resistance only to the highest
amount of damage. The resistance increases to 3 at 7th
level, 4 at 12th level, and 5 at 17th level. If a creature with
the chosen trait triggers your champion’s reaction and your
champion’s reaction grants resistance against the triggering
damage, the resistance increases by 5.

PORTAL SCHOLAR BACKGROUND Candlaron’s legacy is one of the strongest elven legacies on Golarion and beyond, for it was he who first created the aiudara—the network of magical portals that link Kyonin to Castrovel and so many other locations across Golarion. Most of these portals are located in the Inner Sea region, where Candlaron spent the majority of his time. Now that he’s long gone, the particulars of how to create new aiudara has eluded discovery, causing some elven scholars to believe that there was something unique to Candlaron’s mind or soul that allowed for his ability to craft and enchant so many portals throughout different regions and worlds. Even Treerazer himself hasn’t cracked that magical code, although not for lack of trying. At least one aiudara, the remote archway known now as Tanglegate, lies deep in his territory. As one of countless scholars of these portals, you’ve spent much of your time studying Candlaron’s techniques, as well as the complex fundamentals of a wide range of teleportation magics and effects. Whether you seek to find a way to build portals of your own, hope to bolster the aiudara network from further tampering from Treerazer, or are simply enthralled by the supernatural rush of vanishing from reality only to reappear in the same instant somewhere else, portals have long fascinated you.
Choose two ability boosts. One must be to Dexterity or Intelligence, and one is a free ability boost. You’re trained in the Arcana skill and the Architecture Lore skill. You gain the Arcane Sense skill feat, and also gain the following reaction

RESTORATIVE TELEPORTATION [reaction] HEALING Frequency once per minute Trigger You arrive at a location via a teleportation effect Effect When you reappear after the teleportation, your body takes advantage of the teleportation to put itself back together in a healthier state, and you restore a number of Hit Points equal to 1d6 plus your level plus your Intelligence modifier
